Reassurances fail as rumours continue to scare Northeast people
CNN-IBN | Aug 17, 2012 at 10:55am IST
The situation in Bangalore continues to remain tense as rumours continue to scare people from the Northeast despite appeals by the state and central government to not panic. Three more trains left for Guwahati on Thursday, packed with professionals and students from the Northeast who were heading home.
However, the assurances did not seem to be working. More and more people have been leaving Bangalore. State officials claim that around 20,000 people from the Northeast have already left Bangalore, fearing a backlash over the Assam violence.
What is interesting though is that the source of the rumours - which is being probed by the IB and the state police - is yet to be ascertained.
