On the firing on the Assam-Meghalaya border, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has said that the incident that happened is sad. We have done judicial inquiry in this. In this, the police took some excessive action, which could have been avoided. This is not a matter of border dispute. This is purely an issue of illegal smuggling of forest wood, in an attempt to stop this accident happened and 6 people lost their lives. He said that this is not an issue of border dispute of Assam and Meghalaya from anywhere.
Earlier on Tuesday that is November 22, Sharma had said that we have ordered a judicial inquiry and handed over the matter to the CBI.
The SP has been transferred and local police and forest officials have been suspended.
In protest against the incident, a group of villagers from Meghalaya in West Karbi Anglong district of Assam ransacked and set fire to an office of the Forest Department. The act was carried out after six people were killed in violence that broke out after the police stopped a truck carrying timber in the early hours of Tuesday. After reports of attacks on vehicles from Assam in Meghalaya, the Assam Police has asked vehicle owners to avoid going to the neighboring state, citing security reasons.
Assam Police has entered Meghalaya: CM Konrad
While the Meghalaya government has suspended mobile internet services in seven districts, the Assam Police has alerted border districts and ordered an inquiry into the matter by a retired High Court judge.

History should be rewritten: CM Sarma
Speaking on other issues, Chief Minister Sarma said that the program of Gaurav Lachit Borphukan of Assam was organized in Delhi because it is his 400th birthday. He says that this is the right time to rewrite and correct the wrong history that has been written. The people of the country should know that how the local heroes of the country defeated the foreign invaders and the Mughals. How Aurangzeb’s general was defeated by warriors like Lachit Barphukan.
Sarma had also claimed about Rahul Gandhi
Sarma had also claimed about Gandhi and said was looking like “Saddam Hussein”, the former Iraqi dictator, drawing a sharp rebuke from the Congress.
“I just saw that his looks have also changed. I said in a TV interview a few days back that there is nothing wrong with his new look. But if you have to change the looks, at least make it like Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel or even Jawaharlal Nehru will do. It is better if it looks like Gandhiji. But why is your face turning into Saddam Hussein?” Sarma took a dig at Gandhi.
Hitting back, Ramesh tweeted, “It is truly pathetic that several TV channels did debates today on Assam CM’s obnoxious and totally unacceptable comments on Rahul Gandhi’s beard. This trivializes the Bharat Jodo Yatra.”
“These channels must do some serious self-introspection on what they have reduced themselves to,” Ramesh added.
“She is the one who conspired to deprive Gujarat of water. Had she succeeded, the Narmada water would have never reached Kutch. Rahul Gandhi is doing Bharat Jodo Yatra with such people who never wanted Gujarat’s development,” the Assam chief minister claimed.
