A media report on June 1 has indicated that the Dima Halim Daogah (DHD), a terrorist outfit of the Dimasa tribe in Assam is yet to decide over extension of six-month cease-fire with the Union Government that came into effect on December 31, 2002.

The DHD ‘vice-president’ Dilip Nunisa while talking to a Kolkata-based daily from Haflong, the North Cachar district head quarters said, "We have kept in mind the appeals by Dimasa organisations and the plight of thousands of villagers who have been uprooted from their houses by Hmar militants. We will take these factors into account before arriving at any decision on the ceasefire."

Palta reportedly figures on the MCC hit-list. The MCC leader said Palta, who had launched an offensive against the Naxalites during his tenure as the Daltonganj SP, would have to face many more such blasts in the future.

Pakistan cannot end its support to terrorists as it serves as a defence line for the country, said Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) chief Syed Salahuddin. In an interview to the Pakistani magazine Newsline, Salahuddin denied that Kashmiri terrorists were losing their support in Pakistan. "No, it is not true. The Pakistani Government and President Pervez Musharraf will not end their moral and diplomatic support to us. They are sincere to the Kashmir cause. The Mujahideen struggle serves as a defence line for Pakistan... If the movement weakens, the war could be fought inside Pakistan due to the naked aggression of the Indians. So one should stop thinking that Pakistan can distance itself from the Kashmiri movement," the Hizb chief said.

The two-day bandh (general shutdown) called by left-wing extremists—Naxalites of the Maoist Communist Centre (MCC), beginning June 10 affected normal life in the State of Jharkhand. Official sources said the shutdown was near total in the MCC-affected areas, where most of the shops remained closed and vehicular traffic also remained off the road. The bandh was called to protest against alleged police atrocities. While most of the bus operators had cancelled long route services, MCC cadres set ablaze a truck near Bundu in Ranchi on the National Highway (NH) 33. In Hazaribagh district, armed MCC Naxalites raided the Baralanga railway station located between Barkakana and Ramgarh section of South Eastern Railways and snapped the power connection. The Naxalites also attacked the Rai railway station near Khelari in Ranchi and locked the office of the station manager, bringing the traffic of coal rakes to a halt throughout the night. The loading and transportation of coal from the mines of Central Coalfields Ltd (CCL) to the railway sidings in Khelari, Piparwar and Kujju was also disrupted during the shutdown.

According to a media report on June 13, the hitherto dormant Arunachal Dragon Force (ADF), believed to have been formed three years ago, has spread its network and is attempting to forge a link between terrorist outfits operating in India’s Northeast and foreign agencies. The report quoted the State Government spokesperson and Education Minister Takam Sanjay as saying "This organisation has been seeking for a long time to establish a link between the various insurgent groups in the region and China. We have definite information on this and have also brought the matter to the notice of the Centre (Union Government)." The outfit is reportedly led by Chaw Nawmee Namsoon and has recruits drawn mainly from the Khamti, Tsingpho and Tangsa tribes of Lohit district. Its purported objective is said to be resisting the domination of the Adis, a dominant tribe in the area. Although the current strength of the outfit is estimated to be approximately 60, its strategic importance lies in its familiarity with the adjacent districts of Upper Dibang Valley, Tirap and Changlang and the routes to China and Myanmar. The report further said that the Isak Muivah (NSCN-IM) and Khaplang (NSCN-K) factions of the National Socialist Council of Nagaland and the Assam-based United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) have tried to reach out to the outfit. Some of their cadres have also supposedly undergone training in Bhutan, the report added.

According to a media report on June 13, the ULFA terrorists are compelled to move out of their hideouts in Bhutan, Myanmar, Garo Hills area in Meghalaya and also from the regions in upper Assam due to heavy rains. The report quoted the Inspector General of Police Khagen Sarma as saying that the ULFA was shifting its camps with the onset of the rains. Consequently, the police have increased surveillance on the border areas of Assam. He further said that the recent arrests and surrender of many ULFA terrorists is also a result of this development. He also informed that 25 terrorists had surrendered in the past 15 days and also more than 30 terrorists were arrested. The ULFA cadres who move out of the camps also face financial crunch and to overcome this, they indulge in extortion, thus, making them more noticeable, he added.

Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Mukut Mithi on June 22 asked the public, particularly of the terrorism-affected Tirap and Changlang districts, to maintain a tight vigil and fight the terrorist outfits active in the area. While addressing a public meeting at Khonsa, the headquarters of Tirap district, he said, "If we submit to them meekly today, they will rule the State tomorrow. The prevailing fear among all sections of the people, including chieftains, gaon burahs (village elders) and government officials, created by the insurgents in the two districts has been the greatest hindrance towards development." He further said that funds allocated to Tirap could not be properly utilized due to interference by the terrorist outfits, including factions of the Nagaland-based National Socialist Council of Nagalnd (NSCN)–Isak Muivah (NSCN-IM) and Khaplang (NSCN-K), and Assam based United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) and the National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB). He added that the State Government had been trying to curb terrorists, however, the NSCN factions attempt to recruit local youths to spread their network in the State’s western part.

A media report of June 23 has indicated that counter terrorism operations by the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) to flush out terrorists in Tripura are being hampered due to inadequate intelligence network at the grassroots level.

He also said that in the past three years, CRPF had arrested approximately 200 terrorists and their collaborators and recovered 265 firearms, including AK-series rifles, and huge quantities of ammunition in the area. The National Liberation Front of Tripura (NLFT), All Tripura Tiger Force (ATTF) and Borok National Council of Tripura (BNCT) are active in the State. More than 100 terrorists have also surrendered before the CRPF in different stages. He added, "However, the CRPF has had to pay a heavy price for its success. We lost 38 officers and jawans to rebel bullets and 26 jawans have been seriously injured over the past three years."

A faction of the United People Democratic Solidarity (UPDS), a terrorist outfit active in Karbi Anglong and North Cachar Hills district of Assam, has reportedly offered to mediate between the tribal communities of Hmars and Dimasas. The faction led by ‘general secretary’ HE Kathar appealed to the leaders of the Dima Halim Daogah (DHD) to not involve the Karbis living in North Cachar Hills district in the ongoing inter-tribal Dimasa-Hmar conflict. He further urged the Kukis and Hmars not to encourage and support ‘communal elements’ and ‘religious fabrics’. While appealing to the DHD and the Hmar People’s Convention-Democracy (HPC–D) to resolve the matter through negotiations, he added that the UPDS would act as a mediator (if asked to do so). While the Kathar faction of the UPDS remains opposed to the talks, the other faction under the leadership of Horensing Bey has been observing cease-hostilities with the Union Government since an agreement was signed on May 23, 2003.

At its meeting on June 24 at Narengi in Guwahati, the Unified Command of security forces (SFs) discussed ways to curb the activities of the United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) and the National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB), especially in the areas of Assam where they have been more active. The State’s Chief Secretary P K Dutta, Home Commissioner and Secretary B K Gohain, General Officer Commanding (GOC) IV corps Lt Gen Mohinder Singh, Assam police chief H K Deka and Inspector General (IG) of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) R D Singh were among those present at the meeting. The meeting decided, inter alia, to intensify counter-operations against the outfits, particularly in the border areas of Bhutan, Meghalaya and Arunachal Pradesh. Further, the meeting deliberated that since ULFA is facing a resource crunch and food shortage at its camps in Bhutan and Meghalaya, the outfit has started attacking ‘soft targets’, including oil storage and refinery facilities to just prove that it exists and also to instill fear psychosis among the common people. The Unified Command has also decided to deploy more CRPF personnel in the district of North Cachar Hills that has been witnessing inter-tribal feud between the tribals of Dimsas and the Hmars, reportedly with the active involvement of the Dima Halim Daogah (DHD) and Hmar People’s Convention-Democracy (HPC-D) terrorists. Besides, the meeting also decided to recommend the upgradation of the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) for the safety of vital Oil India Limited installations in Assam. The Unified Command was established in 1997 to bring the Army, State police and paramilitary forces under a single chain of command of the GOC of the Tezpur-based IV corps.

Media reports on June 25 have indicated that security forces have launched an operation against the ULFA terrorists hiding in the forest areas in Lakhipathar in Tinsukia district. According to an Army spokesperson, the operation began on June 24 to flush out the terrorists. An unnamed Army commander reportedly said, "This is perhaps the biggest ever single counter-insurgency operation in Assam in the past decade. More than 1,000 army, police, and paramilitary commandos have started combing the forest, supported by helicopters carrying out aerial surveillance of the area to prevent the ULFA militants from escaping." He further said, "If required, air raids will be launched on the ULFA bases inside Lakhipathar. We are confident the ULFA militants cannot escape the forest with our troops blocking all entry and exit routes." Lakhipathar was previously the ULFA headquarters, but the terrorists were forced to abandon the forests after the Indian Army launched Operation Bajrang in 1990 against them.

We want to show other states of the region that peace pays and peace is good for the people, we were fighting for".

19 United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) and 11 National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB) terrorists surrendered before the General Officer Commanding (GOC) IV corps Lt. Gen. Mohinder Singh at the headquarters of the Red Horns Division of the Army at Tamulpur in Nalbari, on June 27. The surrendered ULFA terrorists included ‘lance corporal’ Madhab Choudhury alias MC, ‘officer-in-charge’ of Enigma camp Arun Talukdar alias Tango and in-charge of the outfit’s Deothang camp ‘Sgt. Major’ Tapan Tamuli alias Anup Bharali, and also three women cadres— Rina Das, Renu Medhi and Sabita Choudhury, wife of Madhab Choudhury. The women cadres reportedly said that they wanted to lead a family life. Among the NDFB terrorists who surrendered included, ‘Corporal’ Banduram Boro said to be trained at Naglang camp and ‘lance corporals’ Purnak Narzary and Paresh Basumatary. Speaking on the occasion Lt Gen Mohinder Singh said that the terrorists were procuring arms, including those made in China and ammunition from the international open markets in the border areas of Myanmar, Thailand, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Afghanistan. He also said that during the past one year the security forces have achieved considerable success in curbing terrorist activities in Assam applying a three-point strategy–counter-terrorism operations, choking supply routes of the terrorists and pursuing the terrorists to surrender. He further informed that during the said period while unspecified number of terrorists were arrested, approximately 230 were killed in various encounters and some 200 more also surrendered. He also confirmed that the security forces were conducting a search operation in Lakhipathar, Tinsukia district where approximately 30 ULFA terrorists are suspected to be hiding. However, whether the terrorists were forced to descend from the Bhutan camps due to heavy rains or pressure from the Bhutan Government that had set a deadline of June 30 for vacating its territory cannot be confirmed, he added.

Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee on June 27 rejected Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf’s suggestion for a US-sponsored ‘roadmap’ on the lines of West Asia to resolve the Kashmir issue. "I do not see the possibility or the necessity (of such a plan)," he said during a press conference at Shanghai on the last day of his visit to China. Musharraf had earlier told an American TV channel that he would like US President George W Bush to involve himself in a West Asia-style ‘roadmap’ on Kashmir, but feared India would not allow that as it wanted bilateral resolution "of everything". Meanwhile, answering another question, Vajpayee said "very few issues" connected with Pakistan had been raised during his discussions with the Chinese leadership. "My visit wasn’t Pakistan centric," the Premier added while acknowledging that certain issues related to Pakistan had emerged while discussing the South Asia situation.

Left-wing extremists—Naxalites—of the Maoist Communist Centre (MCC) killed two former comrades in Saniya Donbagh village under the Raidih police station-limits, Gumla district, on June 30. According to media reports, the killings are the result of a ‘turf war’ between the ‘zonal commander’ of the area, Mangal Singh Nagesia, and one of the victims, Praveen Sahu, a former MCC cadre. While tribals dominate the MCC in Gumla, which targeted businessmen and traders, Sahu, owing allegiance to the latter, parted ways with the MCC vowing to avenge the killings.

While speaking at a public rally at Judges’ Field in Guwahati on June 30, ‘chairman’ of the Bodo Liberation Tigers (BLT), Hagrama Basumatary, urged the Government for a speedy implementation of the Accord signed on February 10, 2003. The Accord envisages inter alia cration of an autonomous Bodoland Territorial Council (BTC). He also criticised the Sanmilita Janagosthiya Sangram Samiti (SJSS) for opposing the formation of the Council and the Karbi groups opposing the inclusion of Bodos in the Scheduled Tribe (ST) list. Further, he also appealed to the rival outfit, the National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB) to join the peace process. He reportedly said, "It is time for the NDFB to give up its aimless struggle and come out of hiding in foreign lands and initiate talks with the government. If the NDFB leaders do not have any sense of timing and fail to work out a plan for initiating dialogue with the government, our people will have to bear tremendous loss in the name of struggle."
