Man arrested in Assam's Cachar for posting objectionable comment on Delhi blast

Acting swiftly on the instructions of the Chief Minister, Assam Police have arrested a man from Cachar district for allegedly making an objectionable remark on social media following the recent bomb blast in Delhi.

The accused has been identified as Nazrul Islam Borbhuiya, a resident of Rangpur in Cachar district. According to police sources, Borbhuiya posted a controversial comment—“ELECTION COMING AHEAD”—on social media soon after the Delhi blast, which authorities deemed insensitive and provocative in nature.

Following the Chief Minister’s directive for strict action against those spreading inflammatory or irresponsible remarks online, Cachar Police traced and detained the individual. 

He is currently under interrogation, and police are probing whether his comment was motivated by any particular intent or external influence.

Officials confirmed that further investigation is underway to determine the context and motive behind the post.
