Arunachal to strictly implement ILP to stem influx

Taking serious note of the influx of outsiders to Arunachal Pradesh without valid Inner Line Permit, state police have decided to conduct intensive drive for checking of ILP throughout the state.
"A few instances have come to the notice of the authorities that people from outside the state have entered without valid Inner Line Permit.
"There is a legal requirement that any person who is not from the state, while entering the state, is required to have an ILP," Inspector General of Police (Law and Order) Satyendra Garg said in a press statement today.
He instructed SPs of all the districts to ensure that anybody who is not a bonafide resident of Arunachal Pradesh must have a valid ILP to enter the state.

Check gate police staff will ensure compliance of ILP requirements, he said.
APP will ensure that all those entering the state must be bonafide residents of Arunachal Pradesh or have valid ILPS.

Police will also check every vehicle, including those with red beacons and security pilot/escort vehicles, while entering the state.
"Police officials not carrying out these instructions strictly will be departmentally dealt with," he said.
He said the department has already initiated action against those officials who allowed persons from adjoining states travelling in a vehicle with red beacon and security vehicles recently to enter the state.
