“Tirap being one of the trouble-torn districts of Arunachal Pradesh, the people of Tirap, Changlang and Longding districts have experienced various law and order problems for more than a decade, and a police station in a place like Borduria circle headquarters would help control the law and order situation,” Lowangdong said.
