Section 144 Imposed in Bajali District, Assam, Amidst CAA Rule Protest Concerns

The Bajali administration in Assam has imposed prohibitory orders under Section 144 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) in the district, citing concerns over potential disturbances and threats to public peace following protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) rules. The order, issued by District Magistrate Mridul Kumar Das, aims to prevent untoward incidents, breaches of public peace, and safeguard public life and property. The move comes after the central government notified the CAA rules, prompting opposition parties and student bodies to organize protests.
