Assam’s Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma recently announced that the Assam Police is working hand-in-hand with the National Investigation Agency (NIA) and Intelligence Bureau (IB) to combat rising threats of terrorism and dismantle terror modules within the state. This strategic partnership aims to enhance intelligence-sharing, provide logistical support, and improve overall law enforcement coordination in dealing with terrorism-related challenges.
The collaboration comes at a time when the state has witnessed increasing incidents of terrorism, with links to several outfits operating in the region. The police’s combined efforts with the NIA and IB have led to successful arrests of key terror operatives, with 23 individuals linked to various terror outfits being apprehended in recent months. These arrests are part of a larger crackdown aimed at preventing terror activities before they can harm the region’s peace and stability.
The combined forces are working to disrupt and dismantle terror modules, and their actions are sending a strong message to terror groups: Assam is not a place for extremism. With tighter surveillance and joint operations in place, the state aims to eliminate threats, ensure safety, and uphold its commitment to national security.
The strategic approach also includes boosting training for police officers, using advanced technologies for intelligence-gathering, and sharing resources across agencies to quickly act on information. The partnership of Assam Police, NIA, and IB will strengthen the state’s ability to neutralize terrorism at its roots, maintaining peace and order for the people of Assam.
This unified effort also stands as a testament to the state’s vigilance and proactive stance against any form of extremism, ensuring that Assam remains a secure place for its citizens.
