GUWAHATI: Indian Army’s Tracker dog “Jaari” has achieved a remarkable feat by helping the troops to locate and recover a huge cache of arms, ammunition and explosives, hidden by insurgent organisation belonging to Songbijit faction of the National Democratic Front of Boroland (NDFB) at Panbari Reserve Forest in Bodoland Territorial Area Districts(BTAD) in an operation.

P Khongsai, Public Relation Officer (Defence) Guwahati said, “Based on specific inputs of presence of huge amount of arms, the Indian Army launched a search operation in Panbari Reserve Forest, along with Assam Police and SSB. The Army Canine Jaari led his handler and the search teams to the spot and on digging the area, the Army and

Police personnel found the hidden cache of arms, ammunition, explosive and war like stores.” The items were subsequently seized by Chirang Police and taken to Panbari police station.

Khongsai added the success of the operation is a huge setback to NDFB(S) cadre and will go a long way in ensuring peace in BTAD and Assam especially, in view of BTAD elections scheduled to be held early next year.
