Protests Break Into Violent Clashes With Security Forces as Northeast Fumes Over CAB

In view of the massive protests against the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill in Assam, the Northeast Frontier Railway on Wednesday cancelled many trains and rescheduled a few that originate from the state.

At least 14 trains have either been cancelled, short terminated or diverted anticipating “disruptions in train movement”, NF Railway Chief Public Relations Officer Subhanan Chanda said in a statement.

Out of these, eight trains have been “completely” cancelled, while the rest have been short terminated, the statement said.
