The demolition of houses and displacement of about 5,000 people stem from the BJP government’s plan to start an ‘agricultural project’ in Gorukhuti.

As we publish this article, there are reports that the eviction of Muslim families in Gorukhuti in Darrang District by Assam Police took an ugly turn on Thursday with reports of police firing claiming at least three lives. Unconfirmed reports said the death toll could be higher. The area is tense as locals are resisting police action, said sources.

Sipajhar, Assam: On September 20, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma seemed “happy” over the eviction of 800 families from their homes in Dholpur No 1 and Dholpur No 3 villages of Darrang district, as according to his social media handles. What he termed the ‘clearing (of) about 4,500 bigha’ (land) courtesy an eviction was where families had been cultivating for decades, despite ravaging annual floods.

“It looked like a scene from a war; hundreds of police and CRPF personnel descended upon the villages equipped with 14 JCBs. The district administration mobilised 1,500 persons from the security forces to oust people who had already agreed to move from their homes to the land promised by district administration for temporary settlements,” said Mohammad Ali Khalifa, president of Assam Sankhyalaghu Sangram Parishad (ASSP), a minority rights organisation working in the state.
