Assam Police DG Mukesh Sahay rushed to Tinsukia to take stock of the situation and hold a security review meeting with the Army.
In the first attack on security forces in the northeast by militants this year, two jawans of the Assam Rifles were killed and three others injured when a group of heavily armed ULFA and CorCom militants ambushed them near Jagun in Tinsukia, close to the Arunachal Pradesh border on Sunday morning. Two militants were also killed in retaliatory fire by security forces.
Following the ambush, security forces closed down NH315 between Jagun and Lekhapani in Assam to conduct combing operations, leaving over 1,000 tourists stranded at Nampong in Arunachal, where they had gone to attend the Pangsau Pass Winter Festival over the weekend. A government official said that the visitors, mostly domestic tourists, were safe.
