Agartala: With insurgency on the wane in Tripura, the government has reduced the areas under Armed Forces Special Powers Act, 1958 (AFSPA), which gave ample powers to paramilitary forces to conduct search or arrest people in the name of insurgency.

A notification issued by the government on June 5 said the matter was reviewed and after consideration of the overall law and order situation of the state, the areas were reduced.

The Act would now be effective fully in 25 police station areas, and partly in seven others. (PTI)
