Jatiya Dal Leader Arrested in Guwahati Amidst ULFA-I Probe
The police in Assam arrested a political figure named Pranab Jyoti Chetia because of a social media post that seemed to support a banned group called ULFA-I.
The police are investigating to see if he has any other connections to this group.
This happened in Guwahati, where security is high because of Independence Day coming up.
Last year, the ULFA-I tried to set off bombs, so the police are trying to prevent something like that from happening again this year.
The police also arrested other people they think might be connected to the group.
Jatiya Dal Assam General Secretary Pranab Jyoti Chetia was arrested in Guwahati.
The arrest was related to a social media post allegedly supporting ULFA-I.

The arrest is part of heightened security ahead of Independence Day.
