On Saturday, schools and other educational institutions, which have been closed for over a month now due to violence, have also started opening and are likely to resume regular classes soon.
A senior police official said that there has been no violence in Bodoland Territorial Areas Districts (BTAD) for the last few days. The Assam government has requested the individuals and organisations in the BTAD not to organise any procession and rallies for next one month keeping in view the sensitivity of the issue.u00a0
