Many of them tested positive for coronavirus when they were in quarantine in the respective quarantine centres of the state.[19][20]

Though many of them have later recovered, a very few have died.[21][22] So far, the Assam Police has registered 3,005 COVID-19 cases among its personnel. Of them, 2,274 have recovered, 723 are undergoing treatment, while eight have died to the virus.[23]
