    "It is an honour for us that we have been able to train police persons from other states at the LBPA here, which was inaugurated by home minister Amit Shah," Sarma said.

    "Earlier, we also trained policemen from Manipur here. Although Goa is located far away from Assam, I hope that this event today has reduced the physical distance between the two states. Lots of people from Assam also work and live in Goa and I only hope that the Goa government will extend their cooperation whenever they are in distress," the Assam chief minister said.

    Sawant said, "700 Goa Police recruits will step into service as constables, shaped by training at Assam's Lachit Borphukan Police Academy. This is a proud outcome of Goa-Assam collaboration for law enforcement and national security." Sawant urged the new recruits to be sensitive to the people of Assam while performing their duties in Goa.
