Nagaland's commercial hub - Dimapur has become the second city in the North East, after Guwahati in Assam to have a Commissionerate system of policing.
Nagaland Chief Minister, T R Zeliang inaugurating the commissionerate system yesterday said that the new system is expected to bring about tangible improvement in the area of policing and maintenance of law and order situation in Dimapur.
Peace and stability are needed for progress and development and Dimapur is the most vibrant commercial and social hub of Nagaland with most of the economic and social activities happening in the district.
If Nagaland is to progress and prosper, Dimapur has to be properly administered, he said.
However, if life in Dimapur is frequently paralysed by uncontrolled law and order situation, the whole state is directly or indirectly affected subsequently and therefore, good governance and peaceful situation in Dimapur is a must if Nagaland is to grow and prosper, he added.
Dedicating the Commissionerate to the people of Nagaland, state Home Minister Y Patton expressed his hope that the people of Nagaland will see a new ray of hope to live in Dimapur with more secured and peaceful environment.
He also said that the initiative is in tune with the manifesto of the government and party to enhance service delivery to the public and to make people safe and secure.
Patton said that the government is committed to make Dimapur into a world class city and this initiative will facilitate a conducive environment in Dimapur where people of all tribes can go about their activities without fear or anxiety.
