“In fact, last November there was a two-day conference held at Raipur.

This conference is an extension to that at the state level to ensure that all the suggestions and guidelines that emerged at Raipur are effectively implemented at the ground level,” he added.

“Law and remains key to achieving the dream of a Developed India and Developed Bihar by 2047. All the SPs, range DIGs, IGs, ADGs, DGs will do the brainstorming for implementation of the Raipur guidelines at the grassroots level,” he added.

“I am confident that all the police officials will work with honesty for crime control. They have played an important role in establishing the rule of law in the state,” he added.

Deputy CM (Home) Samrat Choudhary was also present on the occasion. The conference was to be earlier held at Purnea , but it was cancelled due to unavoidable reasons.
