Asomiya Go Back Slogans Trigger Violent Clash in Guwahati’s Arya Nagar – Journalist & Police Attacked
Guwahati, Assam: In a shocking incident that has ignited widespread outrage across Assam, “Asomiya Go Back” slogans were brazenly raised by non-Assamese individuals right in the heart of Guwahati city. The provocative chants led to a tense and heated situation in Arya Nagar on Sunday, exposing deep-seated tensions in the region.
According to reports, local resident Jitendra Shailai had been highlighting the alleged illegal ganja (cannabis) trade thriving in Arya Nagar for a long time. On Sunday afternoon, Shailai accompanied a journalist from a local portal to gather evidence and report on the rampant drug business. However, a group of aggressive non-Assamese youths allegedly emerged, shouting “Asomiya Go Back” slogans, and launched a vicious physical assault on them.
The journalist sustained serious injuries in the brutal attack. In a disturbing escalation, when police arrived to control the chaotic situation, they too were allegedly assaulted by the unruly mob. The entire episode has sent shockwaves through the Assamese community, with many questioning how outsiders dare to raise such divisive and anti-Assamese slogans in the state’s premier city.
Social media platforms are flooded with strong reactions, condemning the audacity of the perpetrators and demanding immediate justice. The Assam Youth Forum has launched a massive protest against the incident. The organization has given a strict ultimatum to the government and administration to take stringent action against the accused non-Assamese individuals within a set timeframe.
Authorities are expected to conduct a thorough investigation into the Arya Nagar violence. As Assam watches closely, the focus remains on how swiftly the administration responds to protect local voices and maintain law and order in Guwahati.
This alarming “Asomiya Go Back” episode has once again highlighted concerns over demographic changes and outsider interference in the state. Citizens are calling for firm measures to prevent such incidents from recurring and to safeguard Assam’s indigenous identity.
