The North East Students Organisation (NESO), the apex student body of the region, has called a 12-hour bandh in all States of the region, except Assam, on Thursday to protest against influx of migrant labourers and others into the region from other States.
The Assam Government on August 29 declared a ban on all bandhs in the State for a month as the Centre was worried that some organisations were trying to stoke social tension by calling bandhs in the aftermath of the recent violence between tribal Bodos and the minorities.
