The initiatives include setting up of CCTVs at vital locations in the capital town, deployment of Quick Reaction Teams (QRT) of security forces in each and every sub-division and "modern" training to police and paramilitary personnel to prepare them for any eventuality.
Sources said the decisions were approved yesterday in a high-level meeting chaired by Chief Minister Manik Sarkar and attended by top brass of security forces. Besides, strict vigil will be maintained at the Agartala airport, major bridges, bus terminus, railway stations and vital installations like Civil Secretariat and Rajbhavan, the sources said.
