  "summary": "The Arunachal Pradesh government has released four protesters detained during the recent agitation against the proposed 1,000-MW Siang Upper Multipurpose Project (SUMP). The decision to free Adum Tayom, Omak Paron, Okut Paloh, and Oson Paron was made to create an atmosphere conducive to dialogue and reconciliation. The government also reinstated gaon buras and gaon buris who were disciplined during the protests. However, concerns remain over two key demands: the withdrawal of security forces from affected areas and the withdrawal of criminal cases against protesters. The government has stated that decisions regarding security deployment must be guided by law-and-order considerations and public safety, while affirming its willingness to discuss the issue during an upcoming meeting.",
