"As a part of the administration, I've come here to assure people that we're with them and for their welfare. If they have any apprehension then it is my duty that apprehension is taken care of," he said.

"People here have responded positively and assured that they'll work together through Aman Committees to bring back the feeling of brotherhood," he added.

The officer said that police have been deployed, there is peace in the area and he will talk to people in this outreach programme to resolve their problem.
