In Assam, as many as six villagers were kidnapped by some unidentified militants at gun-point from Dehangi and Maibong areas of North Cachar hill District. All the kidnapped villagers belonged to the Dimasa tribal community. 
According to official sources, heavily-armed militants stormed into the villages in the wee hours on Tuesday and whisked them away to the forest. The police and paramilitary forces have launched a massive search operation to rescue the villagers. Official reports said after a lull of few months a few new underground groups have sprung up in the district. 
The recent arrest of top leaders of Dima Halam Daogah and United People’s Democratic Solidarity made both the hardcore outfits defunct in the district. This was a major success for the security forces. 
AIR correspondent reports, the new groups might be behind the kidnapping to establish their existence.
