Goalpara: Fire crackers kept inside a tin
on the railway tracks by miscreants burst at Darrangiri in
Lower Assam`s Goalpara district early this morning but none
was injured.
The fire crackers exploded around 2.00 am causing the
people to assume that an improvised explosive devise
(IED) had burst on the B G tracks, district additional
Superintendent of Police Pradip Kumar Brahma said.
Denying media reports about a minor explosion of an
IED on the railway tracks under Rongjuli police station, the
police officer said, the crackers must have been planted by
miscreants to create a fear psychosis among the people.
Police patrolling was on to prevent subversive
activities by insurgents in the district in view of
Independence Day today, he added.
