Regarding religious gatherings, he added, "Henceforth, all Friday Jumma'at Mosques and Churches will receive adequate security coverage."
Bodinga, who emphasised the necessity of collaboration between security agencies, said: "I am in active contact with service heads across the state. Together, we share intelligence and strategies, strengthening proactive security measures for the state."
Addressing the modernisation of the corps, Bodinga highlighted the importance of training and equipment upgrades for officers. He stated: "Our operatives are being technically and professionally trained to meet modern security challenges."
