Itanagar, Jun 6: As many as 219 individuals without valid Inner Line Permits (ILPs) were externed from the Itanagar Capital Region on Friday, a senior police official confirmed.
The violators were detected during an enforcement drive conducted by Naharlagun police across Papu Hills, Naharlagun, Nirjuli, and Banderdewa, as part of the ongoing initiative to uphold the Bengal Eastern Frontier Regulation.
Naharlagun Superintendent of Police (SP) Mihin Gambo informed that all 219 individuals were found without valid ILPs during the operation.
“Each case was verified and processed under non-FIR provisions, and the violators were handed over to the executive magistrate. They were subsequently externed from the Capital Region,” Gambo stated.
Highlighting the growing number of ILP violations in the Itanagar Capital Region, particularly at markets, construction sites, and commercial establishments, the SP urged residents and employers not to engage outsiders lacking valid ILPs.
He also appealed to the public to report any such violations to the nearest police station.
“Regular ILP enforcement drives will continue in the coming days. All non-Arunachali individuals must carry valid ILP documents at all times and cooperate with the authorities,” the SP added.
