The Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Kiren Rijiju congratulated the security forces for successfully handling the security scenario in the North Eastern States with the region recording a 50 per cent decline in the levels of violence since the last four and a half years.
The security situation in North East have seen a significant improvement over the past four and a half years. Rijiju made the remarks while addressing delegates at the twenty-fifth Conference of DsGP/IsGP and Heads of Central Police Organisations (CPOs) of the North-Eastern Region in Itanagar.
The region faces both internal as well as external threats due to the geography of the region and its proximity to international borders and he complimented the security forces for seamlessly handling the situation.
Rijiju also stressed upon the importance of coordination, cooperation and flawless intelligence between central and state police forces in the security of the region. Further he said that the Assam Rifles Academy at Diphu (Karbi Anglong district, Assam) has been designated for specialised training of North East police in counter-insurgency operations.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
