In deference to new Assam Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal's decision to keep his convoy to the minimum, police will strike a balance between his instructions and the fundamentals of security.
"We will strike a balance between the Chief Minister's instructions without compromising on security or causing inconvenience to the public", Assam Director General of Police Mukesh Sahay told reporters on the sidelines of a meeting here.
"We will strike the balance for his (Sonowal) satisfaction," said Sahay responding to reporters query how he would provide security to the chief minister in view of the cabinet decision today to keep his convoy to the minimum to ensure people are not inconvenienced and his decision to stop at all red light signals.
