''Most people in the camps want to go home. But they are living in fear and they want security to go back home,'' Gandhi told reporters during in a brief interaction in Dhubri, where she visited three relief camps during the day.
She said Union Home Minister Sushil Shinde and Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi will review the situation and as it improves they will take steps to ensure that the camp inmates are rehabilitated with proper security in their homes.
Gandhi accompanied by Shinde visited relief camps in Dhubri and Kokrajhar in BTAD area ( Dhubri and Kokrajhar in BTAD area), where violence between bodos and immigrant minorities have claimed 77 lives.
''Naturally all inmates want to go back home, but this will take some more time till the situation is little calmer. Once feelings are assuaged, the chief minister and others will make sure that they are able to go home,'' Gandhi had said earlier in the day in Kokrajhar.
''I have come here to inspect how the people are, if anything is missing or whether they have any complaints or problems,'' she said adding the camp inmates have told her that they have no problems and are receiving rations regularly.
In a camp in Dhubri, the women complained of sanitary conditions and the authorities have been directed to take steps. The number of camps there would be increased to decongest the existing ones, she said.
The women in the camps would also be provided tinned baby food of their choice for their children, said Gandhi, who visited Titaguri and Debargaon relief camps in Kokrajhar and Barkhanda Academy Peoples' High School, Machpara LP School and Indranarayan College in Dhubri. MORE
