Explosives Cache Recovered in Assam Ahead of Republic Day Celebrations

Guwahati: Security forces in Assam uncovered a cache of explosives in the Sonitpur district on Saturday, just days before the state gears up for the 76th Republic Day celebrations. The recovery, made during a search operation in a jungle near Khwbra village in Batashipur, has heightened vigilance across the region.

The operation, conducted by the Sonitpur Police, was launched following credible intelligence about illegal arms and ammunition buried underground. “On January 25, 2025, based on reliable information regarding the secret storage of illegal arms and ammunition buried in the jungle area near Khwbra village, Batashipur under Dhekiajuli Police Station, a search operation was conducted,” the police said in a statement posted on X (formerly Twitter).

The seized items included 36 grenades and three detonators, all wrapped in a polythene bag and buried in the jungle. Authorities are investigating the origins of the cache and potential links to insurgent groups operating in the region.

This discovery comes amid heightened security measures across Assam to ensure the smooth conduct of Republic Day celebrations. Security forces have increased patrolling, enhanced checkpoints, and deployed additional personnel in key locations to prevent any untoward incidents.

Officials have assured the public that every effort is being made to maintain law and order. Meanwhile, intelligence agencies continue to monitor potential threats, particularly in sensitive areas prone to insurgent activity.

The recovery of these explosives underscores the importance of sustained vigilance and the coordinated efforts of law enforcement agencies in maintaining peace and security in the region.
