GUWAHATI: Indian Army apprehended self-styled corporal,  Podum Asom, an active member of the banned ULFA (I) at Disangmukh, Sivasagar district on Monday.

A defence source informed that the ULFA insurgent had also served as a personal security guard of senior ULFA (I) leaders in Taga camp in Myanmar from 2013 to 2016.

Information regarding presence of the insurgent was received from the local population who have rejected the duplicity and falsehood spread by the ULFA (I) leaders.

Apprehension and surrender of a large number of insurgents to the security forces has given a severe blow to the misplaced ideology of ULFA (I) and its sympathizers.

Security forces claim that there are reports that due to the misleading dogma of ULFA (I) and harsh conditions in camps, more insurgents are likely to give up their association with the proscribed outfit. It is becoming difficult for the ULFA (I)  to persuade cadres  to fight for  a pseudo cause  in extreme conditions and risking their lives, while the leadership and their families are enjoying luxurious lives.

“The leaders of the proscribed insurgent group, safely ensconced at comfortable locations outside India have been luring the innocent youth from upper Assam into their organization. The over ground workers have been recruiting them by making false promises of money and better life. For most of them, it’s a one way ticket as they are never allowed to return to the safety of their homes. Now realizing the futility of joining ULFA (I), the insurgents are abondoning the  false cause and  are  joining the  mainstream,” the statement issued by the security forces said.
