Vigilant monitoring by Assam Police has been instrumental in maintaining strict border security, thereby preventing illegal crossings. Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma commended the efforts, stating, "Taking a firm stance against infiltration, @assampolice pushed back 9 Bangladeshis and 8 children across the border in the wee hours today.
