  • The Assam government has extended the contentious Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act, 1958 (AFSPA) in the state for six more months. The notification came into effect from February 28. 
  • Initially, it was the Assam Disturbed Area Act of 1955 during the agitation by Nagas in undivided Assam.
  • This Act gave freehand to some extent to the Army that was repealed with the incorporation of the Armed Forces (Special Power) Act, 1958. 
  • AFSPA was imposed in Assam in November 1990 and has been extended every six months since then after a review by the government.
