Assam DGP Kuladhar Saikia has claimed that the Dhola firing incident was a brainchild of the banned outfit, ULFA. The DGP made these shocking revelations in context of NIA's complaint on the incident.

It may be noted that earlier ULFA had denied any responsibility of the incident.

Stating that ULFA is involved in the Jagun and Charaideo kidnapping cases, Saikia has further claimed that the extremist outfit has been indirectly active.

Off late it has come to light that ULFA has been involved in a number of attacks and that the number of youths joining the outfit has also increased. It may also be noted that books on ULFA have been one of the bestsellers in the 2018 Northeast Book Fair.

This rising trend of joining ULFA has become a topic of concern for the people of Assam.
