Afspa has been extended for another six months in Tinsukia, Dibrugarh, Charaideo, and Sivasagar districts of Assam, citing potential security threats from disturbances in Bangladesh. Authorities highlight improvements in Assam’s security but express concerns over internal law and order. The controversial act, opposed by human rights groups, grants wide-ranging powers to security forces.
