Kohima: Assam Rifles is tightening its grip on local relations across the Northeast. The force opened an Ex-Servicemen Welfare Association office in Diyun, Changlang district, Arunachal Pradesh. This new hub acts as a central point for veterans from the Armed Forces, Assam Rifles, and Central Armed Police Forces to file paperwork and solve welfare grievances.
The office aims to put veteran experience to work. Plans include youth mentorship, career guidance, job placement, and drug abuse awareness programs. Officials stated the office serves as a "common platform for veterans of the Armed Forces, Assam Rifles and Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs) to address welfare-related grievances, facilitate documentation, access assistance and undertake constructive initiatives."
Operations shifted west on November 7. Personnel met with Gaon Burahs and the village chairman at the Peren Company Operating Base in Peren, Nagaland. They gathered to discuss security and community welfare during the Diwali holiday. It was a strategic meeting. Both sides swapped views on regional stability and vowed to keep communication lines open to maintain peace. Soldiers wrapped up the visit by handing out sweets to the village leaders to mark the festive occasion.
