New police station at Kamakhya

A new police station, in the Nilachal Hills, near Kamakhya Temple was inaugurated on Thursday in presence of IGP Central Western Range LR Bishnoi. The new outpost will better serve the people and add up for the temple security which comes on the wake of recent Bodh Gaya blast. "Kamakhya is a world famous place for tourist, and once in a year the big Ambubachi Mela takes place that attracts lakhs of tourists. Terrorists always keep an eye in such places. However there is no any threat to Kamakhya as of now, but this new police station will add up to the security measure for Kamakhya," said Bishnoi.
