Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma Issues ‘Shoot-at-Sight’ Orders in Dhubri, Claims 'Active Group Intends to Damage Temples'

  • On June 13, 2025, the head of Assam’s government authorized shoot-on-sight orders in Dhubri town to address rising communal unrest.
  • The order followed the discovery of severed cow heads near a Hanuman temple after Bakri Eid and an organized campaign by the group Nabin Bangla advocating Dhubri's inclusion in Bangladesh.
  • Sarma visited Dhubri, directed authorities to arrest criminals including a new beef mafia smuggling cattle from West Bengal, and affirmed deployment of RAF, CRPF, and other forces to maintain order.
  • He announced that 22 individuals had been detained in connection with the unrest and issued a warning that anyone causing trouble would face immediate firing by security forces.
  • The measures suggest a firm government stance against communal unrest and external provocations, with community cooperation urged to restore peace in the majority-Muslim border district.
