Guwahati, March 22: The authorities have seized cash worth Rs 7.12 crore and five lakh litres of liquor so far across different places. “We have formed 389 flying squads and 364 static teams and set up 355 check posts,” he said. Out of 32,003 licensed arms in the state, 23,797 have been deposited and 514 have been impounded, while process for deposition for the rest is on, Zaidi said. 

“Over 3,000 non-bailable warrants have been executed till today and around 4,556 are still pending, which will be executed soon. DEOs and SPs have been asked to identify criminals, hooligans and anti-social elements. All such persons should be kept under close watch and preventive actions should be taken,” he added. With a focus that no voter should be intimidated, the ECI has asked authorities to take action against any possible instances of paid news cases, Zaidi said.
