There was a fierce exchange of gun fire occurred between two unidentified militant groups at Nunglei village in Tamenglong District on February 27, reports The Hindu. Though not confirmed Police believe that there may be casualties on both sides. Also, The Telegraph on February 27 reports that the State Home Department is holding an internal inquiry to know if lapses on part of Police led to the recent bomb blasts. Home Minister Gaikhangam said in the State Assembly that “We are inquiring into the incidents and trying to find lapses on part of police and also to see if there is any black sheep that indulged in unwanted activities among the state force members”. The minister also stated that militants were using drug addicts and poor women to plant bombs as they cannot carry out the task themselves because of intense pressure by security agencies. The Minister sought support and co-operation from the public and citizens organisations in the Police's efforts to check planting of bombs. He said the Police were taking help from the Assam Rifles (AR) in intelligence gathering.
