I dare to say,
ULFAs are bunch of dacoits and their heroics are all media creation, specially 
regional media. Whenever I read a news report in,
say Asomiya Pratidin, for first three paras I feel like I'm reading a Ranju 
Hazarika novel.

Many commons in assam suspect  that there is no real Bar'da or Raj'da;

ULFA threatens to ‘punish’ journalists
Bijay Sankar Bora
Tribune News Service
Guwahati, June 6

The banned United Liberation Front of Assam (ULFA) has threatened to 
“punish” four senior journalists based in the city for daring to organise a 
demonstration and protest march against the reign of terror let loose by the 
outfit in the state.
Addressing the protest meeting organised at the Guwahati Press Club, the 
four journalists, D.N. Chakrabarty, Nava Thakuria, Ronen Goswami and Rupam 
Baruah, condemned the escalating campaign of violence, particularly bomb 
attacks in markets, which have been attributed to the banned extremist group.
In a statement e-mailed to the media here, fugitive commander in chief of 
the outfit Paresh Baruah, who is suspected to be master-minding ULFA operations 
in the state from his shelter in Bangladesh, threatened the four journalists 
for daring to mobilise public protest against the outfit.
The ULFA commander stated that the outfit didn’t bother about such protests 
by “agents of Indian colonial rulers” and warned that it would not hesitate 
from punishing the four journalists for holding a campaign against the outfit.
Responding to an anti-terror call given by 14 citizens, including writers, 
journalists and social activists, hundreds of people took out a protest march 
from the club on May 31. Raising anti-ULFA slogans, the protesters went through 
several busy streets in the city.
Kick-starting the march, veteran journalist D. N. Chakrabarty termed the 
latest incidents of explosions as the fourth invasion of Assam by ULFA in 
intensity and devastations, the previous three being those of the Burmese 
troops in pre-British old Assam.
Similar protests against ULFA were witnessed in the wake of a blast during 
the Independence Day celebrations at Dhemaji in north Assam in 2004 that killed 
13 persons, mostly schoolchildren.
