The State Minister had a whirlwind tour of the district, flying in choppers and moving in cars and motorcycles available on the spot, without any prior information to any body.

His helicopter landed at an isolated place in Borhanuddin at about 11 am. He walked about half a kilometre and reached a road. He stopped a motorcycle, climbed onto it and asked the rider to take him to a centre where madrassah students were appearing at Dakhil examination. He expelled four teachers and a teacher --Maulana Idris-- and handed him over to police.

At Monpura, he expelled four madrassah teachers and three examinees. Milon then flew to Lalmohon and expelled two examinees.
