Assam government said a major group of the anti-dam protesters, who are carrying out the road blockade on the national highway number 52 against construction of the 2000-megawatt Lower Subansiri Hydel Project at Gerukamukh, are influenced by Maoist ideology. The State Power Minister Pradyut Bordoloi said Maoists have a big role in this blockade. He said these Maoists take up local problems and the issue of regionalism to forge ties with the local people. Their only objective is to bring about instability in the country.Bordoloi said the banned outfit United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) is also involved in this anti-dam movement in bits and parts. The Minister said the Assam Government will never compromise on national interest and will take stern action against activities of the protesters. Talking to newspersons at Guwahati yesterday Bordoloi said the Group of Ministers formed by the State Government is making a roadmap to check the downstream effects of the Lower Subansiri Hydro-electric Project in the State.
