The commander said the battalion alone had deployed about 500 soldiers to serve in the special security outfit `operation Zenda’ to maintain internal security in the state.
According to him, the effort is paying off as weapons hitherto in the hands of wrong people have been recovered.
He said that the high criminality in the state had been reduced to “few isolated cases of killings’’
