Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma told NDTV today the state government will not stop arresting people linked to child marriage. Assam's BJP government has launched an anti-child marriage crackdown and arrested hundreds of men across the state.
The crackdown on child marriage in Assam entered the fourth day on Monday, with the number of arrests totaling 2,441 so far, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said.
The state government’s crackdown against child marriage in Assam has ruffled a few feathers among the opposition parties after thousands of arrests in the matter.
