Bishnupur, July 09 2025:
Deputy Commissioner of Bishnupur, Pooja Elangbam today chaired a District Level Security Coordination Committee meeting at the Conference Hall of the Mini Secretariat Complex, Bishnupur.
The meeting focused on two key agendas: ensuring peaceful cultivation during the ongoing kharif season and expediting the resettlement of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs).
Addressing the gathering, DC Pooja Elangbam highlighted the significance of agriculture for the district's economy, stating that Bishnupur, being primarily agrarian, must ensure uninterrupted and peaceful farming activities.
Flying squads comprising key stakeholders have also been formed for peaceful farming in fringe areas, she added.
The DC urged all the officers present to respond swiftly and in coordination in the event of any untoward incidents.
She also appealed for regular visits to fringe areas to engage with farmers, address their grievances at the ground level, and inform the District Administration for intervention when necessary.
The second major agenda focused on the phased resettlement of IDPs.
The DC informed that resettlement will occur in three phases, beginning with areas where law and order have significantly improved.
She called on security personnel to identify suitable locations for return and highlight areas needing enhanced security arrangements.
The DC also interacted with officials, including the Additional SP, who provided input on potential resettlement zones.
Expressing appreciation for the collective efforts in maintaining law and order, the DC expressed hope that more displaced persons would be rehabilitated in the coming months, helping restore peace and normalcy in the district.
The meeting was also attended by ADM Bishnupur T Opendro, members of the District Level Security Coordination Committee, and other concerned officials.
