Stop rumour-mongering: Gogoi to media, parties, civil society

"Please cooperate with the government. I appeal to the media, political parties and the civil society to cooperate and stop rumour mongering", Gogoi told reporters at Raj Bhavan in the presence of Union Home Minister P Chidambaram here.

"Our government is sincere to ensure that victims return to their homes which will be possible within a fortnight.

"We have decided to post additional security pickets in the affected areas. This is not a time for blame game," he said.

The problem has been solved to an extent and nobody should take advantage of the situation, he added.
