Assam is ramping up its crackdown on suspected 'Pakistani agents,' with two additional arrests bringing the total to 73 since the Pahalgam terror attack, according to Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma.

Targets of the latest arrests include individuals from Chirang and Hojai districts, as confirmed by Sarma in a social media post on platform X.

The initiative, likened to Operation Sindoor by CM Sarma, includes the arrest and subsequent detention of opposition AIUDF MLA Aminul Islam under the National Security Act, who was earlier granted bail for alleged pro-Pakistan statements.
