In his new year greetings to journalists through SMS as a peace offering, Dima Halam Daogah commander-in-chief Pranab Dimasa said "as you stand on the threshold of saying farewell to the year goneby, before you enter the new year to come, sift through the luggage upon your shoulder: and replace the friction with reconciliation."

"Hatred with love, misunderstanding with coordination, conflict with peace, walls with bridges, blame with support, problems with solutions and strength with the resolve to make a difference this year," Dima advised.

DHD now on ceasefire with the centre was accused of being involved in the recent month-long Karbi-Dimasa ethnic violence in the district since September 26 last that saw over 100 dead, thousands of houses burnt and lakhs homeless.

In a statement issued in Guwahati on Monday, JCC Chief Convenor Longslug Teron also urged the administration not to harass innocent people by arresting them without any valid cause.
