Shillong (Meghalaya), Dec 4: The East Khasi Hills Police has taken a significant step towards enhancing public safety by establishing a new police booth at the North Eastern Indira Gandhi Regional Institute of Health and Medical Sciences (NEIGRIHMS) here. The booth, strategically located near the main entrance, will operate round the clock and be manned by dedicated police personnel to ensure prompt response to emergencies and security concerns.
This initiative is part of the police department’s broader efforts to strengthen security infrastructure in key public institutions across the state. With NEIGRIHMS being a major tertiary care and teaching hospital serving the entire Northeast region, the presence of an on-site police booth is expected to significantly improve response times and contribute to a safer environment for patients, staff, and visitors.
The NEIGRIHMS authorities have welcomed the establishment of the booth, highlighting the benefits of enhanced cooperation with the police in streamlining crowd management, ensuring safety for medical staff and students, and providing timely intervention during critical situations.
