The central government has officially notified the creation of three new Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO) units. These new offices will be established in the northeastern states of Nagaland and Tripura, as well as in the eastern state of Odisha.
The decision aims to improve the administrative infrastructure for managing the registration of foreign nationals within these regions. By expanding the FRRO network, the authorities intend to ensure more efficient and timely processing of registration applications.
