Itanagar, Oct 8 : A campaign has been launched by the Arunachal Pradesh government to dispel fear among non-Arunachalees about an operation launched by it with regard to a permit needed for ‘outsiders’ to stay and pursue their profession in the State.
The State Government has undertaken a public relation exercise to allay apprehensions among non-Arunachalees about the ‘Operation Clear’ drive recently intensified by the authorities to send out those without Inner Line Permits (ILP), official sources said.
The ILP is a mandatory requirement for Indians from other states to stay and pursue their professions in the state under the Bengal Eastern Frontier Regulation, 1873.
The ILPs are verified usually at the entry points to the state and on highways by mobile parties. But whenever there is crime, police parties intensify the checking.
After three persons were arrested in North Lakhimpur district in Asom in connection with the recent murder of two young tribal girls here, the operation was intensified and 103 people were sent out for not having ILPs or for possessing fake ones.
Since the arrested belong to a minority community, the Minority Yuva Chatra Parishad organised an economic blockade for two hours on September 18 when over 10,000 Muslims from different areas of North Lakhimpur blocked NH-52 alleging atrocities on minorities during ILP check.
Though there was no untoward incident except for a stray incident of damage to a few cars bearing Arunachal Pradesh number plates.
