People from Assam and other North East states are fleeing to their home states after some of them were targeted by miscreants in Maharashtra in the past few days, officials said Thursday.
Since early this week, an estimated 1,500 Northeastern people have returned home from Mumbai, Pune and Nashik. While over 300 Assamese left early on Thursday from Pune and Nashik each, another 400 left from Mumbai on Wednesday.
Pune Assistant Commissioner of Police Sanjeev Singhal said there was no cause for people from the northeast to leave. “They are apparently influenced by some MMSes being circulated. We have appealed to their community leaders not to panic and avoid forwarding such MMSes,” Singhal said.
