In a series of intelligence-based joint operations conducted in the month of April 2026, the Indian Army’s Red Shield Gunners, under the aegis of Spear Corps, in coordination with Assam Police, achieved significant success in Upper Assam districts of Tinsukia, Charaideo and Sivasagar.
The operations, based on precise TECHINT and HUMINT inputs, led to the apprehension of one ULFA(I) cadre, ten Over Ground Workers (OGWs) and four drug dealers with established links to anti-national elements. Additionally narcotics were also recovered during the operations.
These coordinated efforts highlight the effectiveness of joint operations in countering anti-national activities and disrupting support networks in the region. The operations also underscore the commitment of security forces towards maintaining law and order and ensuring a safe and secure environment for local communities.
The sustained and synergised actions by the Indian Army and Assam Police continue to play a crucial role in curbing recruitment of local youth into anti-national groups and strengthening the social fabric across Upper Assam.
