Security forces recovered a huge cache of explosive from the Dimapur railway station and arrested one person. Assam Rifles personnel recovered 800 detanators, 710 gelatine sticks and six bundles of cordex from the luggage of a person near a platform, sources said.

When securitymen asked a youth to open his bag, he fled leaving his luggage behind. After searching the luggage, explosive materials were recovered. Later, some bags were recovered from an autorickshaw which he hired after arriving at the station by Lamding-Tinsukia passenger train. The bags also contained a banner of Hmar Youth Association, two camouflage uniforms and a Naga shawl, the sources said, adding that the person was from Mizoram.
