"The situation is under control as of now. There could be some external elements behind the violence. The state government and the Centre are determined that we will have this investigated and get to the people who are behind this," Union Home Secretary R K Singh told reporters here.
Singh said in the last two days five bodies were recovered following the fresh violence between the two communities in the Bodoland Territorial Administered Districts (BTAD).
"I want to make it clear to everyone that we will go after those who are responsible for the violence," he said.
