In Jagraon, a protest march organized against the pervasive issue of drug abuse was intercepted by local law enforcement. The procession was prevented from proceeding further, specifically before it could reach the Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) office.

The organizers of the march were reportedly provided with an opportunity to submit their memorandum of demands at a local dhaba (roadside eatery) during a halt. The details of the memorandum submitted are not immediately available.
