In an impressive display of law enforcement’s commitment to maintaining peace and order, Superintendent of Police Sanjib Kumar Saikia spearheaded a police roadshow in the town of Diphu, Karbi Anglong, on Monday morning. This proactive measure was taken in response to escalating tensions in the region, sparked by a recent incident in which protesters were assaulted while attempting to reclaim land from illegal occupants in Kheroni, West Karbi Anglong.
For forty-eight hours prior, an undeclared shutdown loomed over the district of Karbi Anglong. The Monday roadshow marked a significant turn as life in Diphu began to resume its normal pace. The presence of the police aimed to reassure the community, preventing any further disturbances.
Under the vigilant supervision of SP Saikia, the police roadshow traversed the streets of Diphu, a strategic move designed to display unity and strength. The show of force was a clear message to the public that the authorities were in control and dedicated to ensuring tranquility in the face of recent events.
The incident in Kheroni had heightened anxieties within the two hilly districts, leading to the spontaneous closure of businesses and disruption of daily routines. However, the roadshow served as a visual reminder that the situation was being handled with utmost seriousness and competence by the Karbi Anglong police force.
