Raja Bora (Assamese: ৰাজা বৰা), alias Polash Phukan, was the personal bodyguard of Arabinda Rajkhowa,[1][2] the chairman of United Liberation Front of Assam, a revolutionary rebel organisation operating in the Indian state of Assam.[citation needed]
On 4 December 2009, Bora, with the group's chairman Arabinda Rajkhowa and eight others, surrendered before the Indian authority near the Indo-Bangladesh border in Meghalaya. They were said to be taken into custody by the Border Security Force the moment they crossed the border near Dawki in Meghalaya's East Khasi Hills.[1]
