According to the party, villagers raised concerns over security and urged the State Government to take immediate confidence-building measures in the sensitive international border region.
The villagers reportedly demanded the establishment of police stations and security outposts in the affected border villages, stating that many displaced residents remain reluctant to return home without assurance of safety and protection from the government. They also earnestly appealed both the State and Centre Governments for timely rehabilitation and compensation.
The NPP delegation assured the villagers that their concerns would be conveyed to the appropriate authorities.
