One more person has been arrested from Dhubri district of Assam for “defending Pakistan on Indian soil” following the Pahalgam terror attack, taking the total to 37 so far, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said on Friday.
Taking to social media, Chief Minister Sarma said that as many as one fresh arrests have been made across the state in this regard taking the total number of arrests to 37.
The arrested person as per the CM’s social media post has been identified as Amar Ali from Dhubri.
The Assam Police have been taking strict action against individuals making seditious statements online.
The arrests come amid heightened vigilance by authorities to maintain communal harmony following the Pahalgam terror attack.
Earlier, opposition AIUDF MLA Aminul Islam was arrested and booked on sedition charges for allegedly defending Pakistan and its complicity in the Pahalgam attack.
Islam has been remanded to judicial custody after five days of police custody. The court of the Nagaon Chief Judicial Magistrate also rejected his bail petition, remanding him to judicial custody.
On Saturday, Sarma had said that if required, provisions of the National Security Act would be imposed on the arrested.
“There are no similarities between Bharat and Pakistan. The two countries are enemy nations and we must remain like that,” the CM had told reporters.
Twenty-six people were killed after terrorists struck Baisaran in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam on April 22.
