Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Tuesday said that 73 individuals allegedly working as "Pakistani agents" have been arrested so far as part of the state's ongoing crackdown on anti-national activities.

Taking to social media platform X, Sarma posted, "It is unfortunate that some individuals enjoy every privilege India offers -- salary, power, and position -- yet their loyalty lies across the border. They draw everything from Bharat but work only for Pakistan's interests. This is betrayal. Like #OperationSindoor, our mission to track and punish anti-nationals is going on."
