GUWAHATI: The Paresh Baruah-led ULFA-I has claimed responsibility for recent grenade attacks in certain parts of Assam.

It further warned Assam DGP GP Singh to not use the Assam police department as his “ancestral property”.
“…the arrogance shown by GP Singh by treating the Assam police as his ancestral property has hurt the self-respect of the officers and members working in the Assam police, and his arrogance cannot be acceptable,” ULFA-I stated.
On the other hand, Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, on Sunday (December 10), urged ULFA-I chief Paresh Baruah to shun violence and begin talks with the government.
