Guwahati, Aug 12 (PTI) Police have recovered a cache of arms and ammunition buried in a village in Assam’s Sonitpur district.
These items were buried during the period when militant group National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB) was active, a top police officer said on Monday.
In a post on X, DGP GP Singh said five Chinese-origin hand grenades, five hand-made grenades, one pistol, one revolver, and five detonators were recovered.
“Recovered early this morning from Village Bilasiguri-Batasipur under Dhekiajuli PS in Sonitpur District where they were hidden under earth during NDFB days,” the DGP added.
The NDFB was disbanded in 2020 following signing of a peace agreement with the government.
