Nagaland will host a two-day Regional Anti-Narcotics Task Force Conference for all Northeastern states and West Bengal on November 13 and 14 at Chumoukedima, Director General of Police Rupin Sharma announced on Tuesday.
Organised in coordination with the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB), the conference aims to address the challenges of narcotics trafficking in and from the Northeast and develop strategies for stronger inter-state cooperation and effective enforcement. Senior officials from the central government are expected to attend the event.
Sharma said the conference will be the first regional meeting under the national ‘Nasha Mukt Bharat’ mission, focusing on supply reduction, enforcement, rehabilitation, and de-addiction measures.
Speaking on the ongoing police recruitment process, the DGP informed that the last date for online application submission has been extended by 15 days from November 7 to accommodate candidates facing delays in obtaining documents such as indigenous certificates. He clarified that while registration on the recruitment portal is free and valid for future drives, applicants must pay a Rs 300 examination fee.
