Page 16 Alloona Mirror, Saturday, February 26, 1983 Assam exodus increases as death toll rises GAUHATl, India (UP1) Tliousunds of people (led Iheir homes in 11 pathetic exodus from Ihe state of Assam Friday as the death toll from 25 days of riots and mass killings by rival ethnic groups rose above Prime Minister Indira (jandhi said her government bore some responsibility for the worst explosion of ethnic strife since India became independent in S'J47, but added that oui- siders, whom she did not name, were mostly to blame. "I hope the killing is finished," Mrs. Gandhi told cor- respondents in the Indian eapi- tal of New Delhi. In Assam, army troops Friday discovered 50 more bodies from carried out Monday against Bengalis. A separate clash between two rival groups left four dead, officials said.

The lull's! reported fatalities pushed the death toll from 25 consecutive days of riots, police shootings and massacres to according to stale officials. Most of the victims have been Bengalis whose expulsion is sought by native Assamese and pagan tribes In Ihe overcrowded northeastern Assam state. Slate officials said the latest available figures showed 30,000 people, mostly Bengalis, had poured into Ihe neighboring states of Arunncfial Pradesh. West Bengal and Manipur in search of safely. At least 20,1100 others remained stranded In Assam in squalid relief camps, irain stations and highways while fleeing for their lives, officials said.

They carried meager possessions wrapped in blankets atop their heads, clutching babies and people too old. sick or wounded to walk. Refugees with money loaded their household goods into ox carts which plodded dusty roads toward hoped-for sanctuaries. The wave of violence began Peb. after Mrs.

Gandhi rejected calls to cancel Assam stale elections or strip some 4 million Bengalis most of them immigrants from Bangladesh of their voting rights. At a news conference, Mrs. Gandhi was asked whether her government accepts responsibility for the violence. "Obviously the responsibility of looking after the people is the government's," she said. "You can say perhaps that the (security) forces were not deployed in certain places where they should be, and obviously when we look into it then perhaps many faults win be found." She blamed anti-election agitators and unnamed "outsiders" for sparking the violence but said the bloodshed was so widespread and involved so many ethnic groups that none could be singled out.

Army troops Frulay discovered 50 more bodies from Monday's massacre of Bengali immigrants by Assamese natives in Ihe village of Silaphathar and surrounding hamlets, pushing the death toll to 100 in that incident, officials said. Elsewhere in Assam, migrant tribesmen from eastern India's state of Bihar killed four native Assamese in the town of Friday, officials said. It was not known what sparked the fight.
