The Bodoland Peoples' Front on Friday suspended its indefinite bandh, called to protest arrest of its MLA Pradip Brahma, for five hours following the lifting of curfew for the same period. The indefinite curfew, imposed since 5 AM yesterday, was lifted by Kokrajhar district administration from 4 PM to 9 PM to allow people to buy their essentials, official sources said. There is, however, restriction on assembly of five or more people at a spot, sources added. The BPF, which had earlier stated that it would continue its indefinite bandh till the indefinite curfew was on, also immediately suspended the bandh for a similar period.
