“What is happening in Assam is not a communal violence, nor is it just a campaign against illegal Bangladeshi immigrants. Rather, it is a well planned ethnic cleansing of Muslims, said Maulana Badruddin Ajmal, president of Assam United Democratic Front (UDF), a Muslim political party having 10 MLAs in the current Assembly.

Talking to TwoCircles.net from Darrang district in Assam today, Maulana Ajmal, who is also state president of Jamiat Ulama-I-Hind, said: “Situation is tense but under control, more than 100 people have been killed in the ongoing violence and 200 critically injured.” Thousands of houses have been burnt and more than 1,20,000 people who have been rendered homeless have taken shelter in relief camps.

In the fresh spate of violence specifically targeting Muslims erupted on Friday in mainly three districts – Darrang, Udalguri and Baksa – and according to the official figure 35 people have been killed.”
