The mortal remains of circle officer Sanju Das who lost his life in the tragic boat accident in Assam’s Dhubri were taken to his paternal home in Silchar today.

Upon reaching Silchar, the mortal remains were kept at the Circuit House where district administration officials paid their last respects.

Following this, the mortal remains were taken to his native village Irongmara in Dhalai district where the deceased will be laid to rest with full state honours.

Notably, Assam Cabinet Minister and Dhalai MLA Parimal Suklabaidya were also present as the mortal remains of Sanju Das were brought to Irongmara village earlier today.
