Security forces have recovered six hand-made bombs from under a bridge in Assam's Sonitpur distriꦐct on Wednesday, a police officer said.
A joint patrol team of the Army and police spotted the explosives under Chirajul💧i bridge on National Highway-15 in Dhekiajuli area, he said.
The bombs were later defused.
It is suspected that militant outfits placed these to disturb peace during the forthcoming Chr🅷istmas and New Year celebrations, the officer s💖aid.
No militant outfi✤t has, however, claimed responsibility so far.
The development comes two-days after Army's Easteꦯrn area Commander Lt Gen R P Kalita and Assam Director General of Police Bhaskar Jyoti Mahanta held a closed-door security review meeting here.
