Surrendered militants of the PULF threatened to
return to militancy if the Manipur government does not extend
to them the benefits of surrender and rehabilitation policy by
January 10, 2016. Fourteen PULF militants had surrendered with
weapons to the state government in 2012, along with 100 other
militants of various groups, at a function held at the AR headquarters
in Imphal. CM Okram Ibobi Singh, Deputy CM Gaikhangam, who is
the Home Minister, and senior AR and Police officers were present
at the programme.
The PULF cadres have claimed that they were yet
to get any benefit of the Centre's surrender and rehabilitation
scheme even three years after their surrender. "Despite our repeated
requests, the state government remains indifferent. Our cadres
are getting restive as they feel the government has betrayed them.
We were promised rehabilitation and a normal life after leaving
the jungles," Md Kaji Umar, former chairman of PULF said. He said
none of the militants who surrendered with weapons in his group
got the promised benefits. "We are setting the deadline for extending
all the benefits to my cadres by January 10 next year (2016).
If there is no response from the government, we may launch an
agitation or go back to the jungles," Umar warned. The PULF is
one of militant groups which operated in Manipur valley.
