The Dhubri administration has launched an eviction drive on 650 bighas of government khas land, noting that 80% of occupants had already left prior to the official operation.
The Dhubri district administration has commenced a formal eviction drive targeting 650 bighas of government-owned khas land. The operation aims to recover state property that was under unauthorized occupation.
According to official reports, the eviction process was preceded by significant voluntary compliance, with approximately 80% of the occupants vacating the premises before the drive officially began. This early departure has reduced the immediate scale of the enforcement operation.
The remaining occupants are now subject to the ongoing eviction proceedings. The administration has emphasized the need to clear these areas to restore the land to its intended government use.
The move is part of broader efforts in the region to address encroachment on public land and ensure legal compliance regarding state assets.
