Contact No. 07275749460 08604471355 E-mail : [email protected] ITANAGAR, Jan 9: Arunachal Pradesh is strictly monitoring movement of underground elements in the state's territory following 'Operation All-out' launched by security forces in neighbouring Assam against NDFB (S) militants. "We are working on all movements on such elements who have reportedly sneaked into the state's territory after operation launched against them," said Director General of Police S Nithianandam in an interaction programme with media persons at police headquarters here today. "We have excellent coordination with Army and Assam police and putting out all efforts to flush them out of the state," he said, adding, IGP (law and order) I D Shukla went to a few such areas yesterday in the interstate boundary and launched operation to flush them out. The anti-insurgency operation led by Shukla is going on in Boguli, Deka, Kakoi and Borsetum reserve forest areas in state’s Papum Pare district adjoining the Lilabari airport in North Lakhimpur district of neighbouring Assam. The DGP while presenting a report on various achievements of the department in the last two years claimed that due to anti-insurgency steps, underground activities have significantly decreased in troubled Tirap, Changlang and Longding districts. He said, various measures have been initiated to modernise the state police with state-of-the-art weapons, recruitment of police personnel and use of modern technology. "The only way to know our strength and weakness is through feedback of common citizen," the DGP flanked by IGP Shukla, AIGP Tussar Taba and a host of senior cops said. "Equally important is the use of technology in policing. Since the integrity of police force has always been questioned, it is of utmost importance that all police work is done with the use of modern technology. All procedures should be recorded in CCTV, audio visual tapes," he said. ––PTI recting the civil judge (Sr Division), Thoubal ‘to dispose off original (declaration) suit No.12 of 2013 as early as possible preferably within one year from the date of communication of this order..’, in order to avoid such incidents in the future. The public meeting took serious note of the incident as police personnel posted at Lilong police station led by an officer miserably failed to enforce law and order despite their physical presence during the incident. The body has also demanded compensation from the State Government for the loss and damage of properties as per the customary law of Zeliangrong. The Zeliangrong customary law regards the pulling down/destruction of a house something like the crime of committing murder. As the incident happened in the physical presence of the police personnel, the meeting ruled that the destruction would be considered premeditated and pre-planned by the State with ulterior motives in case the State Government fails to compensate the damages. The public meeting further warned the perpetrators to refrain from committing such unlawful activities in the future. It further demanded the same to maintain communal harmony adding that similar activities, if repeated, would not be tolerated.
