Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh Tuesday said the Territorial Army (TA) act an inseparable part of the security set-up in the state.
Speaking on the occasion of the 69th Territorial Army Day here he said the TA has become an interface between the local populace with the Army and the Assam Rifles personnel based in the state.
Singh said the TA has brought the local populace "closer" to the Army and Assam Rifles units deployed in the state.
He said the Territorial Army has provided "impetus to gainful employment of the states youth" and the mindset of highly educated and well trained TA personnel are genuinely concerned in dealing with the problems of the state.
The chief minister also congratulated the TA for its involvement in development of ecology by planting saplings in deforested areas.
