The volunteer group was formed by Gaurisagar police under the leadership of Bhaskarraj Baruah, Officer in Charge, Gaurisagar police station. The group was formed with the cooperation of many social workers, well-wishers, and friends from Tinsukia, Makum, and other areas. It distributed AC/DC light bulbs to some of the flood-affected families who have set up temporary camps at the new building of Binayak Hotel, Gaurisagar, and along the roads in the greater Gaurisagar area, so that they do not have to live in darkness.
