The act of hurting or assaulting someone online, or cyberbullying or cyberstalking, has serious emotional implications. To recognize the cyberbullying in Assamese Language on social media we used two Deep Learning techniques, i.e., Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit (BiGRU). These techniques successfully differentiated between cyberbullying related to gender, religion, age, ethnicity, and non-cyberbullying content using a balanced dataset consisting of 39,869 social media comments. The CNN model outperformed the BiGRU model by reaching an accuracy of 90.3%.
