All Bodo Studens' Union president Pramod Bodo today gave a call to all those in the jungles, particularly the NDFB (Songbijit) cadres hiding there to come out to the mainstream for establishment of permanent peace in Bodoland.
Addressing a series of public meetings here at Batachipur, Hograjuli-Khawla Centre and Belsiri areas in Sonitpur district near the Assam-Arunachal border, Bodo asked the underground outfits in the jungles to come overboard.
"A section of misled Bodo youths are still in the jungle in the name of revolution. They should not waste valuable time of their life", he said.
The influential ABSU leader also urged the Bodo civil society to get involved in building an illegal-arms-culture free society.
Speaking on the negative impact of arms culture, he said it destroys the social fabric and also urged the people to create an alcohol free society and an educational environment among the students.
"We cannot allow anybody to spread the poison of intolerance in society," Bodo said.
ABSU has been carrying out a mass mobilisation programme among the Bodo people to create an opinion on bringing about a total change in the Bodo society.
Moreover, touching upon the land patta problem of the people of the greater area he slammed the congress ruled Assam government for depriving these people from their legitimate rights.
