ANINI, 12 Oct: A team of the Arunachal Pradesh Police (APP) on Thursday embarked on a trek to the famed 7 Lakes in Dibang Valley district to mark the APP’s raising day.

The trek, symbolising the spirit of adventure and community engagement, was flagged off by Director General of Police Anand Mohan, and is being led by Itanagar Capital Region DIGP Vijay Kumar, with support from police officers, including SPs John Pada, Bomken Basar, Rike Kamsi and Ringu Ngupok, and the State Disaster Response Force.
