Later, DGP Anurag told the media that on 12th April, the election for the Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council (TTAADC) would be held, and for that elaborate arrangements have been made.

“For this, I have come here to Khowai to hold and review the security preparedness of Khowai and Dhalai districts, in which SPs of both districts and Commandants of TSRs deployed in both the districts are present. We will review the policing and security matters and what actions need to be taken further to maintain law and order and ensure a peaceful environment in both districts before, during, and post-poll,” the DGP said.

He said that the police administration will hold meetings on this matter, and sufficient forces have been deployed in both districts, while the situation is being reviewed on a regular basis.
