“The Krishak Mukti Sangram Samity (KMSS) on Sunday declared a statewide crusade against Congress government’s decision to continue construction of the Lower Subansiri National Hydel Power project at any cost.
The announcement came after chief minister Tarun Gogoi on Saturday talked about bringing back the barges carrying the turbines of the mega dam which were sent back by KMSS on their way to Gerukamukh.
Asking every individual of the state and organization to come under one roof to fight against construction of the the mega dam, KMSS general secretary Akhil Gogoi asked the Centre to declare the Brahmaputra river stretch as “neutral river zone” for the sake of protecting the riverine rights of the state and its bio-diversity.”
