Intelligence sharing mechanism on terror, criminal networks, drug trafficking and arms smuggling will be strengthened, an inter-state police grouping today said.

The decisions were taken at the first meeting of the Northern Regional Police Coordination Committee, that comprises states of Haryana, Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Uttrakhand, Chandigarh and Delhi.

Delhi Police Commissioner Alok Verma chaired the meeting here, that was attended by DGs and IGs of the member states.

"The officers attending the meeting discussed and shared information relating to terror and de-radicalisation, drug trafficking, online fraud, misuse of cyberspace, institutionalisation of meetings, joint exercises and sports events between the police of districts bordering states besides integration and sharing of finger-print records," an official statement said.
 

Intelligence Bureau Director Dineshwar Sharma, NIA DG Sharad Sharma and ITBP DG Krishna Chaudhary were also present at the meeting as special invitees.

Delhi Police also invited Uttar Pardesh and Haryana to send one platoon each to participate in the Delhi Police Raising Day Parade on February 16 next year.
