Personal life

In the late 80s, when she was a student at the Gauhati University, she married Arabinda Rajkhowa. They had to spend the initial days of their marriage in jungles of Assam and Bhutan. They have two children Kanchan Bohagi Rajkonwar (Daughter) and Gadadhar (Son).

Arrest

She, along with her husband Rajkhowa, deputy C-in-C Raju Baruah and Rajkhowa’s bodyguard Raja Bora were said to be surrenderd to the BSF on 4th Dec 2009 morning near the Indo-Bangladesh border in Meghalaya. She was not produced in court for no pending cases were there against her. She and the other women along with their minors are housed in the 4th Assam Police Battalion’s guesthouse in Guwahati.

Family custody

Rajkhowa's elder brother Ajay Rajkonwar reportedly told that he wants to take custody of his brother's family so that their 97-year-old mother could meet them. "We are ready to take custody of Kaveri and the two children -- 13-year-old daughter and five-year old son -- and take them to our mother at Lakwa in Sibsagar. If Kaveri wants to stay back for the outfit's organisational work, we have nothing to say," he said to reporters.
