”The threats to our borders vary from military to non-military and intelligences have to remain ready for all such eventualities,” he said.

”We shall share the responsibility in dealing with the threats in the form of movement of terrorists, insurgents, extremists, narcotics, fake currency notes, human trafficking, including that of women and children, arms and ammunition and growth of fundamentalism, which we have to focus upon,” said Mr Pandey.

In the meeting the IG welcomed all the delegates attending the meeting to review the security scenario prevailing in Barak Valley, Mizoram and impact of under ground activities from rest of Assam and adjoining states of Tripura and Meghalaya.
