“I have directed the Superintendent of Police to take stern action by closing down all these illegal coke factories in that district,” Rymbui told reporters on Thursday.

The home minister further informed that the SP was also asked to find out the source of the coal utilized by the legal coke factories.

The process of asking police to close down is a way of shirking responsibilities and to own up by all politicians. Every municipality ought to have their own mechanism to pull down structure buildings etc Labourers, bull dozers etc can be hired . Police which is meant for law & order management .They will have to employ labourers,bull dozers,trucks etc.Such actions by politicians merely serve to amuse the public knowing very well that’s it’s an eye wash n these coke users will like Lazarus rise from the ashes.And continue their activities.
