Hence, he said, that under no circumstances the anti-Assam forces would be allowed to achieve their design and that the Tai Ahom community would take to the streets, if necessary, to uphold the unity of the Assamese and the state.

The meeting was attended among others by the vice president of the central committee of Tai Ahom Yuba Parishad Bhuban Kotoki, its publicity secretary Gunakanta Gogoi, president of the women’s wing Kalpana Gogoi, its working president Juri Gogoi and general secretary Janmoni Gogoi.
