Mr Singh's meeting with the Chief Secretary and officials of the Border Roads Organisation (BRO), the state police and the Home Department comes a day after he asked the centre to end the "free movement regime" along the India-Myanmar border.
The "free movement regime" allows people living close to both sides of the India-Myanmar border to go 16 km into each other's territory without any papers. Due to this, illegal immigrants may give a slip to security forces as they are stationed at least 14-15 km inside Indian territory, the Chief Minister told reporters in the state capital Imphal on Saturday.
