The All Assam Students’ Union has urged authorities to act on the death of Himashree Boro, warning that safety concerns are rising for Assamese residents outside the Northeast.
The All Assam Students’ Union (AASU) issued a formal demand today for a swift investigation into the recent death of Himashree Boro. The student body said the circumstances surrounding her demise remain unclear and called on police and state officials to take immediate action.
In its statement, AASU highlighted a growing sense of insecurity among Assamese people living outside the Northeast region. The union warned that the lack of a transparent inquiry could exacerbate fears of targeted violence or neglect.
AASU also appealed to the central government to ensure that safety measures are extended to Assamese diaspora communities, urging coordination between law‑enforcement agencies across states. The union said it will monitor the response closely and will organize further actions if the demands are not met.
The call for accountability comes amid broader concerns about the safety of migrants from the Northeast, a topic that has periodically surfaced in national discourse.
