The militants of anti-talk faction of NDFB were involved in the last year's December 23 massacre of adivasi people in Assam, he said.
"One AK 56 rifle, 170 rounds of AK 56 ammunition, 70 rounds of INSAS ammunition, three grenades and some incriminating documents have been recovered from their possession," said Bishnoi.
He said a joint team of the army, police and Sasastra Seema Bal arrested the militants from Morabari jungle.
