A strong rumour of child-lifting has been sweeping through the Garo Hills for the past few days. Apparently, rumour has been spread that a group of child-lifter was operating in the Garo Hills to smuggle children for sacrificing them for the smooth construction of the second bridge over Brahmaputra at Pancharatna now under progress. The gullible sections have been impressed that offer of human blood is necessary for propitiating the god before bridges are constructed.
