Digital Desk: On the evening of August 9, 2023, one active cadre of ULFA (I) was caught in Tirap district during a big operation launched by the Khonsa Battalion of Assam Rifles in collaboration with Arunachal Pradesh police.

The security forces collaborated to gather accurate information to begin a search operation in the border settlement of Noglo. The search party blocked off the suspected location where the cadre was resting.
