Guwahati, Jul 4 (IBNS): Assam governor  Jagdish Mukhi has directed the state police to take adequate measures to make active all non-functional border watch posts.

According to reports, about 39 out of 159 border watch posts of the Assam Police Border Organisation (APBO) in the state are non-functional.

On Wednesday, the Assam governor asked Additional Director General of Police (Border) Bhaskar Jyoti Mahanta to look into the matter on an urgent basis and take remedial steps.

The governor called the ADGP (Border) to his office at Raj Bhavan to discuss the status of the border outposts.

The governor also asked the police officer to engage his men and machinery to make all the watch posts functional by July 31, 2018, and give him an action taken report.
