Tension started in the hills town when a group of bandh supporters attacked a veterinary office and started pelting stones at the DHD(J) designated camp. A DHD(J) militant was injured in the attack. Other camp inmates also tried to retaliate forcing the security forces deployed there to resorted to blank firing to disperse the violent picketers.

It is all because of Illegal Peoples Forum (IPF) the general people of Dima Hasao are suffering. The government should stop them or else they will keep on harming peoples as they have lost their mind and indulging in illegal activities.
