Silchar, August 26, 2024 — Cachar Police have initiated a thorough investigation into a contentious social media post that has been criticized for its anti-India sentiments. The post, which emerged recently, has raised significant concern among local authorities, prompting efforts to identify and hold accountable the individual responsible.
Preliminary investigations have traced the post to Sadat Hossain Alphi, a former student of the National Institute of Technology (NIT) Silchar, now residing in Bangladesh. In response, a police team has visited NIT Silchar to confer with officials and current students, seeking to understand any potential links or context related to the post.
In a recent development, Alphi has updated his social media profiles, alleging that his accounts were hacked. On his Instagram and Facebook bios, he has stated, “I have no hate for Indian people; my ID was hacked, and the previous post was not made by me. I apologize for any confusion.” This claim has added complexity to the investigation as authorities work to verify the legitimacy of his statements.
NIT Silchar has pledged full cooperation with the police and is actively involved in ensuring that campus and community relations remain stable. As the investigation proceeds, both the local authorities and the institution are focused on managing the situation to avoid further escalation and maintain peace.
