Internet Services Suspended In Assam For 24 Hours! Clashes Between Protestors And Police Continue

And not only this, even the army has been asked to be on Standby as the magnitude of violent mayhem is alarming.

However, Mr Sonowal was safely escorted to his residence by his security detail.

And the government is resorting to tyranny instead of establishing communication with them! What kind of message are they sending to the people fighting for their right?
