Stating that Mao is one of the most important entry points to Manipur, the Chief Minister acknowledged the tremendous difficulties faced by police in checking uncontrolled entry of people during this time of pandemic.
He also instructed the police to continue working with dedication and sincerity, stating that rewards for every hard work comes automatically.
It was hard to maintain order in hill districts earlier, however the situation has improved considerably in the past 2-3 years, and it was due to the dedicated efforts of the Manipur Police Department, the Chief Minister said.
He also asked the police to maintain cordial relationship with the people and civil society organizations.
Stating that police should always try to explore different ways to convince the public, he said that they should hold regular interactions with the people and the CSOs so that unwanted agitation like bandhs and blockades can be averted in advance.
He also directed the police not to confront the public but make them feel that the Government is their guardian and nobody is above the law.
In his speech, PHE Minister L Dikho said that Mao police station is an old police station, so the buildings and infrastructure are quite old.
As such, inauguration of a police guest house in the town is a very welcome development.
He also appreciated Mao police's works towards proper management of COVID-19 pandemic with strict vigil on entry of people from there.
