GUWAHATI: The All Assam Students' Union (AASU) on Sunday demanded institution of an enquiry by a sitting judge and meting out of punishment to those involved in the incident wherein the Nagaon police shot at and injured a former student leader, Kirti Kamal Bora, on Saturday night.

While condemning the incident in a statement, AASU president Dipanka Kumar Nath and general secretary Sankor Jyoti Baruah described the police's action as "barbaric". They stated that such incidents are unacceptable in a healthy democracy. The duo threatened to launch a State-wide democratic agitation if the Government fails to urgently institute a judicial enquiry into the incident.
