New Delhi, September 14, 2024: Union Home and Cooperation Minister Amit Shah here today chaired the second day of the two-day National Security Strategies Conference – 2024.
During the Conference, Shah proposed a detailed strategy to augment counter-terrorism efforts, including cooperation with international agencies and enhance capacities to prevent terror financing.

He also emphasised the need for increased cooperation and coordination between National Investigation Agency (NIA) and State Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATSs) to strengthen the counter-terrorism architecture.
The Union Home Minister expressed satisfaction on success in anti-Maoist efforts while cautioning the states, which had recently achieved success in freeing areas of armed formations, to maintain vigilance.
In his concluding remarks, Amit Shah appealed to state DGPs to work towards achieving the Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of a prosperous, strong and developed India by year 2047.
In this context, Shah underscored that substantial progress had been achieved in solving legacy national security concerns such as Jammu & Kashmir, Left Wing Extremism (LWE) and North-East.
It was now incumbent to identify emerging national security challenges, including narcotics, rogue drones and online fraud and tackle them before they became major challenges, he added.
In the context of the implementation of the three new Criminal Laws, the Home Minister urged DGPs to protect the constitutional rights of citizens and ensure speedy and timely justice for victims.
He emphasised that the transformative impact of the new criminal laws could be achieved only through a change in mindset, adoption of technology and seamless coordination. Shah directed DGPs to constitute teams of young police officers to ensure the implementation of the new criminal laws in letter and spirit.
Shah exhorted the young police officers to apply their mind for strategic solutions to combat the entire gamut of fraudulent financial transactions ranging from crypto to hawala.
He called upon all DGPs to strengthen the internal security architecture by embracing a multi-dimensional approach, data analytics and new techniques. In this context, Home Minister urged DGPs to ensure utilisation by the cutting-edge level of databases being maintained by central agencies.
