Eviction drives were conducted across Hojai, Nagaon and Golaghat districts, demolishing hundreds of structures on allegedly encroached land, including reserve forest areas. The action forms part of Assam’s efforts to enforce the Assam Forest Regulation, 1891.
The Jamuna-Moudanga Reserve Forest in Hojai’s Doboka area supports biodiversity, groundwater conservation and efforts to reduce human-elephant conflict. Such drives aim to restore forest habitats and protect Assam’s shrinking green cover.
