An inter-state police cooperation meeting aimed at strengthening coordination amongst police forces in the National Capital Region (NCR) was held here on Friday.

The main objective of the meeting was to share terror-related inputs and increase synergy among various state police forces in the wake of General elections. The meeting, held at Delhi Police headquarters was chaired by Delhi Police Commissioner Amulya Patnaik.

"Intensive patrolling at vulnerable points was emphasised upon to check the movement of illegal liquor, firearms, cash and musclemen across the border towards Delhi. Police officials were impressed upon to focus on tenant verification, guest house checking and sensitisation of cyber-cafe owners," said Public Relations Officer (PRO), Delhi Police.

Preventive action against anti-social elements to ensure smooth functioning of the impending election exercise was also laid stress on, he added.
