“I paid a visit to Martyr Bablu Rabha home at Dudhnoi in Goalpara, met his family members and offered my condolences. The loss is irreparable yet Sri Rabha’s martyrdom in #ChhattisgarhNaxalAttack shall remain a matter of great pride for us forever,” Sarma tweeted.

After visiting the house of the martyred CRPF jawan, Sarma also met the family members of martyred CRPF inspector Dilip Kumar Das at Sarupeta in Barpeta district. He also offered his deepest condolences during the visit.

In another tweet Sarma wrote, “Met the family members of Martyr Dilip Kumar Das at their residence in Sarupeta, Bhabanipur LAC along with MP @pallablochandas & BJP VP @PulokGohain. We shall forever remember Martyr Dilip for the indomitable valour he displayed during #ChhattisgarhNaxalAttack. We salute him.”

Das lost his life in the Maoist attack on Chhattisgarh’s Sukma-Bijapur border on April 3. His body was found in the wee hours of Sunday and was immediately sent to the district hospital in Raipur, where the doctor declared him dead.
