The All Assam Tea Tribe Students’ Association (ATTSA) condemned the incident and demanded for an inquiry.
“In the past, the garden manager has been attacked three times. Even filing FIRs multiple times, we are unable to understand why the administration is failing to take the incidents seriously and not taking any steps,” stated ATTSA leader.
