Nagaon police conducted the drive against 38 brokers, according to the latest information. Sources also stated that Nagaon police detained around 12 brokers under the drive last night.
In a line to end up the ongoing illegal operations by brokers, the Assam government has taken strict measures.
Last year, Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma complained to land revenue department officials about no land-related matters confronted by commoners without bribing brokers.
In this regard, Assam Police arrested 453 land brokers in raids conducted across the state as part of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led government’s crackdown on ‘dalals’ or brokers operating in-land revenue and circle offices.
The raids followed two weeks after chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma notified land revenue and circle officers to remove land brokers from their offices before October 3, 2022.
The brokers were picked up from different parts of the State on September 20, 2022, for indulging in unlawful activities involving land sale, purchase, and holding.
