Earlier, Saha strongly condemned the assault on BSF personnel at Ashabari by a group of miscreants and directed the concerned authorities to take swift and stringent action against those responsible.

In a post on X, Saha described the attack on the security personnel as unacceptable and said such incidents must be dealt with firmly in accordance with the law.

"I strongly condemn the brutal assault on our brave BSF personnel at Ashabari by a group of miscreants. Such acts of violence against our security forces are completely unacceptable and deserve unequivocal condemnation. Any attack on our security personnel is a matter of grave concern and must be dealt with firmly in accordance with the law," he wrote on X.
