DIMAPUR — To reinforce security and stability in Jiribam, Assam Rifles conducted a large-scale joint combing operation along with the CRPF and Manipur Police.
According to an update, a team comprising over 100 security personnel dominated the sensitive areas of Guwakhal and Harinagar in Manipur early on Wednesday after miscreants attempted to torch an abandoned house in the area.
It mentioned that the coordinated effort demonstrated a unified front of security forces, making it clear that even isolated incidents of violence or arson will not be tolerated.
Coordination with police in the neighbouring state of Assam to check and restrict the movement of miscreants from Cachar to Jiribam has also been undertaken by the security forces. River patrols and drones are also being extensively used to secure and dominate the affected areas of Jiribam.
Further, security forces are also in constant talks with local leaders and various CSOs to ensure the return of displaced people to their homes.
