Displaced Indian villagers take shelter at a relief camp in Kukurkata on the border of the north-eastern states of Assam and Meghalaya, some 150kms from Guwahati on January 7, 2011. At least ten people have been killed and up to 40,000 left homeless in an upsurge of clashes between two rival ethnic groups in India’s northeast, officials said January 8. The ongoing violence between the Rabha and Garo tribes who live along the border between India’s Assam and Meghalaya states has escalated in the last one week with Garos demanding autonomous local government council and the Rabhas vehemently opposing it.
