==Controversies==
Representatives from the [[Tai-Ahom]] community in Assam alleged that Bhuyan had posted derogatory comments against an [[Ahom people|Ahom]] woman on his [[Facebook]] wall in late 2011. Bhuyan claimed that someone had hacked into his Facebook account.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hindustantimes.com/India-news/Guwahati/Facebook-remark-sparks-tension/Article1-726801.aspx |title=Facebook remark sparks tension |publisher=Hindustan Times |date=2011-07-29 |accessdate=2012-12-29 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120522050329/http://www.hindustantimes.com/India-news/Guwahati/Facebook-remark-sparks-tension/Article1-726801.aspx |archivedate=2012-05-22 }}</ref>

Bhuyan resigned in July 2012 from his position as editor-in-chief after an enquiry into a reporter's videographing of a molestation in Guwahati. Bhuyan defended the reporter's actions, stating that it led to the arrest of the culprits.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://in.news.yahoo.com/assam-molestation-channel-editor-says-hell-quit-074524922.html |title=Assam molestation: Channel editor says he'll quit - Yahoo!
