Akhil Gogoi detained in Jorhat; released later

Krishak Mukti Sangram Samiti general secretary Akhil Gogoi was released hours after police detained him on Tuesday along with 500 others for staging a dharna at Jorhat Medical College here.

Gogoi, who was released after a few hours, had staged the dharna outside the college and blocked its main gate in protest against alleged anomalies in some ongoing construction work on the campus.
