Arunachal Protest Over Chakma Inclusion Turns Violent, Injuring Activist
Protests against the inclusion of Chakmas in Arunachal Pradesh's Singling-in-Register (SIR) turned violent in Bordumsa, leading to the imposition of prohibitory orders. During the unrest, a student activist from the All Arunachal Pradesh Students' Union (AAPSU) was injured. The violence disrupted a SIR hearing, and the office of the Additional Deputy Commissioner (ADC) was vandalized. Security forces were deployed to the area, and Section 144 of the BNSS (likely a typo for CrPC) was imposed, restricting gatherings and rallies. AAPSU has demanded the arrest of those involved and a halt to activities in the affected areas.
