Imphal, June 11 2023:
While clarifying on contents of an article published in The Peoples Chron-icle on Sunday, Assam Rifles has stated that enforcement of the Suspension of Operations Arrangements (So0) is the responsibility of state government.
According to PRO IGAR (S), the article stated that Assam Rifles as the agency to enforce the ground rules must verify the location of the designated camps and insist that the cadres stay only in such camps and not allow at any other place.
While clarifying on the statement, the PRO added that CPOs, Assam Rifles and Army will provide help and assistance through the detailed procedure which has been approved by Joint Monitoring Group headed by principal secretary/ commissioner (Home), government of Manipur.
While stating that Assam Rifles has always been providing assistance to the state government as per the laid down procedure, the PRO advised media firms to avoid one-sided views and partisan com-ments given by one particular community as the same may lead to firming up of a falsified narrative which is regrettable.
