As many as 31 extremists were killed, more than 766 insurgents and linkmen were arrested and more than 443 weapons were recovered in Assam in 2015 by the Security Forces (SFs), Defence Public Relations Officer (PRO) Lieutenant Colonel Suneet Newton said in a statement, reports The Sentinel on January 1. “The State enters the year 2016, much peaceful, without any incidence of ethnic violence. The overall efforts by the Security Forces have brought insurgency within manageable levels and enabled civil administration to function effectively. The level of violence is at alltime low,” Newton said. He said security situation in Assam had entered 2015 under the most trying circumstances in the aftermath of the massacre of 69 Adivasis, while the scars of May 2014 killings of 46 Muslims had not yet been healed and ‘Operation All Out was launched. Newton further said the successful conduct of military operations had a debilitating effect on the major militant groups in Assam. “Resultantly, most rebel groups such as National Democratic Front of Bodoland (Songbijit) and Karbi People Liberation Tigers (KPLT) have gone on a back foot, with their activities having been severely curtailed, said the spokesperson. This was achieved through synergised intelligence based joint operations of Indian Army with State Police, Central Armed Police Forces and good coordination with State Administration. The operations have resulted in effective conduct of counter terrorism operations, maintaining dominance within the counter terrorism grid and denying space to insurgents. He added that all efforts will be ensured to facilitate success of upcoming major events next year, which includes South Asian Games (SAF) Games and the Assembly elections
