“Focus must be on to instill a sense of security among the people and there should be healthy coordination among the armed forces and state police for effective results,” he said.
Mishra emphasized on real-time sharing of information and regular meetings of field officers dealing with the border security, an official communique said.
The governor also asked the officers of the forces to educate the people about COVID-19 pandemic and encourage the people to wear a mask, wash hands frequently and follow social distancing norms.
He further advised the state government to explore ways to motivate the local youth towards Aatma Nirbhar Bharat programmes, skill development and entrepreneurship.
