Guwahati, July 26 -- Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said on Friday that people claiming to be from States like Bihar are among encroachers of Government, forest and other land in the Northeastern State. He said his Government will share details of these people with local authorities from where they claim to have come, so that it can be verified that they are not actually from "across the border".
Talking to reporters after inspecting sites for eviction drives in Uriamghat in Golaghat district, Sarma said, "When we went through the list of encroachers, we found that these people are not just from Assam. There are people from districts like Cachar, Sribhumi, Dhubri, Hojai, Nagaon, Morigaon, but there are people even from Bihar."
