Aizawl: Cachar DIG (southern Assam range) A Y V Krishna has assured to take all possible measure for safety of the passengers travelling on Aizawl-Silchar-Guwati-Shillong road within his jurisdiction.
The assurance came in wake of the recent most incident of highway robbery where Mizo passengers were robbed and two injured near Silchar.
The Cachar DIG gave his assurance to Mizoram Home Minister R Lalzirliana, who met his at Silchar Mizoram House yesterday along with other Cachar district police officials.
An official statement of the Mizoram government quoted Mr Krishna as saying that such incidents would not happen again.
Mr Krishna also pointed out that he would need the cooperation from Mizoram police to ensure hundred per cent safety to the cabs plying on this road which is infested with highway robbers.
The Mizoram home minister expressed concern over the fact that a number of FIRs submitted to the nearest police stations by victims of highway robberies have proved meaningless. (UNI)
