The North East Students Organisation in a communique, today demanded intervention of the Prime Minister and Home Minister for ensuring proper security to the people of the north east.
The apex students' body of the region described frequent incidents of "discrimination, atrocities and killing" of NE people and the present panic situation of fleeing various cities for fear of life as very "unfortunate."
Considerable number of people from northeastern states stay away from their homes in different cities of the country. A large number of students and employable persons from the region have to migrate to other parts of the country, due to lack of adequate academic and employment facilities locally, it said.
NESO demanded the PM must be "accountable" to the region, being a representative of the area. Manmohan Singh is a member of the Rajya Sabha from Assam.
