Hundreds of tea garden residents broke open an entrance gate of NIT Silchar, Assam, protesting the alleged closure of a long-used access road by the institute authorities.
The protest triggered a tense situation at Borakhai Tea Estate in Assam's Cachar district, with police deployed to restore order. The NIT authorities are yet to issue an official statement on the allegations.
