Pillai will Friday chair the board meeting of North Eastern Police Academy (NEPA) and take stock of the functioning of academy in terms of imparting training and future development programmes.
“There are lots of issues that will be deliberated and I cannot share them with you,” NEPA director R.R. Verma told IANS.
He also said that the state police chiefs of eight northeastern states will attend the meeting.
Later in the day, Pillai is scheduled to meet Meghalaya Governor R.S. Mooshahary, Chief Minister Mukul Sangma and Chief Secretary W.M.S. Pariat.
