Guwahati, Aug 2 (IANS): Hours after the Assam Police registered a case against the the Rashtriya Bajrang Dal for organising a weapons training camp at a school in Mangaldoi town, two members of the outfit were arrested, officials said on Wednesday.

The arrested persons were identified as Bijoy Ghosh and Gopal Boro.

The police arrested Ghosh from his home in Mangaldoi, while Boro was nabbed in Dimakuchi, Udalguri district.

A manhunt is underway to arrest other absconding members of the group.

The participants also received instruction in Vedic rites, fighting techniques, survival techniques, quick thinking, and martial arts.

The trainees ranged in age from 18 to 30.

The incident has sparked outrage in Assam while the opposition has launched a scathing attack on the government.
