Itanagar: Arunachal Pradesh Governor Lt Gen (Retd) K T Parnaik has called for a coordinated and compassionate approach to address the persistent security and development challenges in the state’s insurgency-affected three eastern districts of Tirap, Changlang, and Longding (TCL).

Chairing a high-level security review meeting at Namsai on Saturday evening, Parnaik expressed deep concern over the issues that continue to hinder the pace of development in these districts.

He stressed that despite sincere efforts by the state and central governments, the region’s progress remains impeded due to insurgency-related activities and social unrest, an official statement said here. Highlighting the need for long-term peace, the governor underscored the importance of dialogue, mutual understanding, and unity among all stakeholders.

He urged elected representatives, security agencies, and government officials to come together with a shared vision to resolve the long-standing challenges.

“Only through a spirit of unity and common purpose can we overcome the issues and pave the way for lasting peace and inclusive prosperity,” Parnaik said.

The governor also emphasised the role of law enforcement in this process, advocating for a more humane and community-oriented approach. He called for the creation of a people-friendly police force that is not only effective but also approachable, empathetic, and dedicated to safeguarding the rights and dignity of even the most marginalised communities.
