Police shoot dead four protesters in Assam
Four people were killed and many more injured in the eastern Indian state of Assam when police opened fire to disperse a crowd of demonstrators.
Police say more than 5,000 people were protesting against a government registration drive.
The protesters, mostly from West Bengal, vandalised shops and vehicles.
Correspondents say the demonstrators fear registration could identify them as non-Assamese and that, as a result, they could be forced from the state.
