''The detective agencies should extend a helping hand to put an end to terrorism. It was the duty of the detective agencies to share any information they had on any person involved in such activities, which could disturb the peace and security of the nation'', he said.

The Private detective agencies must monitor the movements of anti-social elements and anti-national activists and remain as a useful source of information for law-enforcing agencies, he said.
