FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY


LOK SABHA

The Lok Sabha was told today that the issue of setting up a Federal Law Enforcement Agency was discussed in the recent Chief Ministers’ Conference on Internal security. There was, however, no consensus on the proposal due to the perception of some of the states that this could impinge upon their spheres of responsibility with regard to the maintenance of public order.

The Minister of State for Home, Shri I.D. Swami said this in the House today.
