Beginning
The organization came into being on October 3, 1986, in Odla Khasibari village close to Udalguri. It was originally called Boro Security Force (BSF) and changed its name to the present one on November 25, 1994. Majority of the cadres were Christians. This organization is often confused with the erstwhile Bodo Liberation Tigers Force, which has since joined the political mainstream. The flag of the NDFB is green with a yellow star on red background on the corner.

Famous quotes containing the word beginning:
“Freedom of enterprise was from the beginning not altogether a blessing. As the liberty to work or to starve, it spelled toil, insecurity, and fear for the vast majority of the population. If the individual were no longer compelled to prove himself on the market, as a free economic subject, the disappearance of this freedom would be one of the greatest achievements of civilization.”
—Herbert Marcuse (1898–1979)
“To love oneself is the beginning of a life-long romance.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
“Of Mans First Disobedience, and the Fruit
Of that Forbidden Tree, whose mortal taste
Brought Death into the World, and all our woe,
With loss of Eden, till one greater Man
Restore us, and regain the blissful Seat,
Sing Heav’nly Muse, that on the secret top
Of Oreb, or of Sinai, didst inspire
That Shepherd, who first taught the chosen Seed,
In the Beginning how the Heav’ns and Earth
Rose out of Chaos:”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
