Title - Gogoi says no to more special trains

Guwahati: One more special train of the North-East people arrived here today from Bangalore even as the Assam Government has requested the Railways not to provide more special trains to transport panic-gripped people from the region staying in southern states.Some of the people who have come here are now willing to go back after realising that they were victims of rumour-mongers.Assam CM Tarun Gogoi said, “We have asked the Railways to stop running special trains. Most of the people who have come home now want to go back, especially after knowing that their jobs are still intact in the southern states. I am sure they will be able to go back within a couple of weeks.”Gogoi today asked the ruling Congress legislators and ministers to fan out to various parts of the state, including their own constituencies, to meet people and students who have returned to the state and try persuading them to go back as soon as possible in the view of improving atmosphere in the southern states.The four ministers from Assam, who were sent to Bangalore and Chennai to take stock of the situation, have sent messages that the local administration in the states have assured protection of the North-Eastern people residing there.
