AIUDF Criticizes Assam Government’s Eviction Drive

The AIUDF criticized the Assam government for its eviction drive, claiming it targeted revenue villages and Myadi land patta holders. AIUDF MLA Rafiqul Islam accused the administration of violating a High Court order during evictions in Goalpara and Sonapur’s Kachutali area. Nearly 450 families were evicted in Goalpara, with officials citing human-elephant conflict concerns. Violence broke out in Kachutali, leading to two deaths, seven injuries, and 22 policemen hurt during clashes. AIUDF may pursue legal action.
