GUWAHATI, Aug 8: The anti-talk faction of the United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) has removed Arabinda Rajkhowa from the post of ‘chairman’. In an email sent to media houses on Wednesday, Arunodoy Asom, assistant secretary for information and publicity of the outfit, said, “We had given a three-month ultimatum to chairman Arabinda Rajkhowa to return to his post and meet the goals of the outfit. The time set for his return expired on July 29. Dr Abhijit Asom, who had been discharging his duties as chairman of the outfit since November 6, 2011, will be the official chairman of the outfit from today.” The pro-talk faction of the ULFA has, however, refused to accept this decision. Mithinga Daimary said, “This decision is one-sided and we refuse to accept it.”
