Later, these attacked Congress workers surrendered to the court and were released on bail.

On hearing this news, the Youth Morcha workers rescued Hatim Ali and first brought him to Kailasahar Police Station, then took him to Unkoti District Hospital for treatment. At present, Hatim Ali is undergoing treatment at Unkoti District Hospital.

A written complaint was filed with the police station on behalf of Yuva Morcha with the names of the victims. After this, the Youth Morcha Unkoti District Committee President Arup Dhar led a demonstration in front of the Kailasahar Police Station by blocking the road from 4 pm and demanding the arrest of the Congress workers who attacked them within the next 24 hours.
