To equip the force to deal better with crimes against North-eastern residents of the Capital, the Delhi Police will now induct 160 personnel from the region annually.
Backing the initiative taken by Delhi Police Commissioner B.S. Bassi, who has already written letters to the heads of police forces in these States, Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Kiren Rijiju said on Tuesday that he has urged the Chief Ministers to expedite the process.
“Ten male and 10 female personnel will be inducted in the Delhi Police every year from the seven States and Sikkim every year,” he said.
