The Meghalaya government has decided to form a citizens committee at the state and police station level for better policing, a police official said. The idea of forming the citizens committee is to improve the quality of policing and better communication between the citizens and the state police, the official said. We need the support of the citizens for providing better police service and therefore, we have decided to formed this committees by November, Meghalaya Director General of Police, N Ramachandran told UNI. In the committees eminent people from the community would be the members, especially the traditional heads who would be able to provide better road maps for effective policing. The members would be apolitical persons to avoid unnecessary allegations of being politically influenced in any of the decisions taken, he said. He said the formation of the committees at the different police stations would help the quality of policing and ensure better cooperation between the citizen and the government. People s support is a must to ensure better policing in the state, the customers are the citizen of the police service, the DGP stated. He, meanwhile, said that there would be no let up in the police s anti-insurgency operations in the state, the DGP added, the operations were being intensified, especially in Garo Hills. The problem is there, but definitely not big. We are adopting a multi-prolonged approach to deal with militants and very soon would be successful, Mr Ramachandran said.
