Itanagar: The All West Kameng District Students’ Union (AWKDSU) has urged for reforms to the Inner Line Permit (ILP) system in Arunachal Pradesh to better preserve the cultural heritage of the region. The union submitted a seven-point memorandum to Deputy Commissioner Akriti Sagar, IAS, during a meeting attended by General Secretary Dorjee Tashi.
