the Maoists have been sought alliances with secessionists and insurgents He also
said that terrorist groups, including the LeT and the JeM, are persisting with

like roads, bridges," he added Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh will address
the conference on Tuesday. He will also present police medals for meritorious
services. The conference provides an interactive platform for senior police professionals
and security administrators to freely discuss and debate diverse national security
related issues, as also the various operational, infrastructural and welfare related
problems faced by them. Its deliberations would also include formulation and sharing
of professional practices and processes in tackling challenges relating to crime
control and law and order management. The conference offers opportunities for
generation and exchange of new ideas on capacity building for the police in respect
of manpower, training, logistics and advanced technology. The Intelligence Bureau
organised the first ever conference of IGPs in India in 1920 and since then, these
conferences have been held regularly at New Delhi in the post-independence period.
The first conference was organised in 1950. To begin with, it was a biennial event,
but after 1973, it became an annual meeting for the Heads of Police Organisations
in the States/Union Territories and of the Central Police Organisations. Director,
Intelligence Bureau, is the ex-officio Chairman of the conference. |
