Addressing a programme where he had earlier distributed appointment letters to 445 new recruits in the Department, the Minister said that the day marks not only the beginning of their professional journey but also the continuation of a proud tradition of service, sacrifice and discipline. The Minister said that since its inception in the State, the Civil Defence and Home Guards have always stood as pillars of courage and resilience during times of crisis, whether its natural disasters like floods, earthquakes and cyclones, or emergencies such as fires, accidents and law-and-order situations. Referring to the recruitment process, Shri Ymbon said that its timely and smooth completion despite minor setback in the PET in Shillong, is testament to the commitment of the Government to ensure a fair and transparent recruitment where merit and only merit is the basis for selection
