The Assam government’s eviction drive in Uriamghat’s Regma forest will continue for two more days, targeting 11,000 bighas of encroached land. On day one, over 200 shops and 50 homes were demolished. Officials say the operation is strategic and phased, with heavy security deployed. Locals allege selective targeting and lack of rehabilitation.
