Chhattisgarh CM Raman Singh has complained to UHM Rajnath Singh that there is "no cooperation" from the Telangana Government in the fight against Maoists in Bastar region, reports The Economic Times on June 3. The UHM has now asked the Chhattisgarh CM to convene an urgent meeting with the Director General of Police (DGP) Telangana. Officials said CM Raman Singh described Odisha's cooperation also as ‘moderate’ while he praised the "active participation" of Maharashtra. The CM also had a host of complaints against Information and Broadcasting Ministry, Road Transport and Highways Ministry, Telecom Department and Environment Ministry. He said there had been "no progress" in increasing the capacity and reach of radio network in Bastar — even Prime Minister’s (PM) ‘Mann ki Baat’ programme was hardly reaching remote areas of Bastar. The CM also complained of "slow progress" in installation of mobile towers, especially in Sukma District near Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) camps and asked for supply of more helicopters and UAVs by the Centre. Officials said the UHM has decided that his Ministry will initiate the Cabinet note regarding the formulation of Road Requirement Plan¬2 as Raman Singh stressed on the need for speed in the formulation of the scheme. However, UHM Rajnath Singh also asked the CM to take steps for laying of underground cables for providing electricity and power to remote CRPF camps such as the one in Chintagufa.

Inspector General of Police (IGP), counter intelligence, Gaurav Yadav on June 2 stated that two Pakistani smugglers, identified as Mohammad Atib Khan, a resident of Deriawala village in Narowal District, and Razif Mohammad from Sunnupur village in Shekhupura District, both from Pakistan's Punjab province, were arrested in Amritsar, along with German-made revolver and INR 65,00,000, reports The Times of India. Preliminary interrogation of both suggested that they worked for a Lahore-based smuggler known as Lamberdar Arshad and were his courier boys. However, IG Yadav said, "Sometimes there are many further angles in the investigations. Till now there is no terrorism connection of the arrested smugglers from Pakistan." Yadav added, "The area from where they crossed the border is riverine. The river is on other side of the fence, which gets damaged when it overflows". Meanwhile, IGP, border range, Ishwar Chander Sharma informed that security had been enhanced at vulnerable places like Batala, Gurdaspur, and Fatehgarh Churian in Gurdaspur District and in Pathankot District.

Not a single internally displaced Bru tribal turned up for the verification process at Kaskau relief campo (in North Tripura District) in spite of officials from Mizoram setting up counters there as the last and final repatriation process began on June 2, reports Tripurainfo. Mamit Deputy Commissioner Vanlalngaihsaka said three teams of officials set up a counter at the camp to verify anyone who wants to return to Mizoram as to whether they are original residents of the State. The officials would, however, remain there for the next two days before moving on to other relief camps. Six phases of the repatriation process has been organised since 2010, but these have met with limited success, partly because relief camp leaders have rejected the compensation package saying it is too less. The Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) and the Mizoram and Tripura governments have agreed and told the Supreme Court, which is monitoring the repatriation process, that this would be the last time an effort is made to repatriate the tribals.

The Union Home Ministry (UHM) is planning to formulate a compensation policy for families of Police informers killed by the Naxals [Left Wing Extremism (LWE)], reports The Hindu on June 4. Ministry sources say the initiative is being taken as part of measures to ensure financial security of the informers and their families. “We are yet to firm up the policy. The government is also exploring the possibility of offering a job to one family member in case the informer is killed in a Naxal attack,” an official said. Government figures reveal that almost 400 Police informers have lost their lives to Naxal violence in the past four years. The Ministry last year enhanced the compensation to civilian victims of communal, terrorist or Naxal violence from INR 300,000 to INR 500,000, which is in addition to the rehabilitation and compensation package extended by the State governments.

Three Policemen were injured on June 3 when a mob attacked them with sticks and kirpans, ceremonial swords carried by baptized Sikhs, for removing posters praising Khalistan champion Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale in Satwari area of Jammu District, reports Times of India. Police said that the posters were removed as they sensed they might generate a controversy. The removal of the posters incensed the members of the Sikh community. They gathered at Rani Bagh and staged a protest demanding Satwari Station House Officer (SHO)'s unconditional apology for hurting Sikh sentiments by removing the posters. The protesters raised slogans like 'Khalistan zindabad' and in favour of Bhindranwale. A Police party rushed to the area was stoned, forcing cops to cane charge the protestors, who retaliated with sticks and kirpans. SHO Arun Kumar, Sub-Inspector (SI) Bharat Singh and Bharat Singh's Personal Security Officer (PSO) Pervaiz were injured in the clash. In the past, Khalistani militants have enjoyed pockets of support in Jammu's Satwari area, where elements from outfits like Khalistan Zindabad Force (KZF) have been sheltered. Punjab Police foiled a conspiracy of KZF and Khalistan Liberation Force (KLF) to carry out terrorist acts by arresting two militants from Jammu on August 4, 2014. Most wanted KZF terrorist, Balbir Singh, involved in a 1997 blast in Pathankot that had killed 10 people, was arrested from Jammu on September 21, 2010. Three associates of wanted militant, Ranjit Singh, and head of KZF were arrested from Jammu on March 25, 2000.

Also, Government of India (GoI) on June 4 asked the Army to launch operations against "militant camps" without publicly specifying their locations, hours after the ambush, attack being viewed by the security establishment as a "turning point", reports The Telegraph. The term ‘turning point’ was used probably because the security establishment now believes that a series of attacks in the region, including two in Arunachal Pradesh and three in Nagaland, is the result of the newfound camaraderie among the Northeast's militant groups. It is from the villages on either sides of Mount Saramati, the highest point on the India-Myanmar border, that New Delhi suspects the attackers to have emerged, reports The Telegraph. Mount Saramati is on the border of Nagaland's Mon district and Myanmar's Sagaing province. It sweeps southwards to the border in Manipur where Moreh is a trading point. It is suspected that militants came across the border that is unmanned. This was the first time the Indian Army had lost 20 soldiers in a single strike in 20 years. It was also the first time that RPGs were used by insurgents on the Army. The National Investigation Agency (NIA) is likely to register a case in the next two days.

Further, India is planning to ask Myanmar to step-up "coordinated military operations" to flush out Indian insurgent groups operating from its soil, reported The Times of India on June 5. Another decision taken in the aftermath of the ambush is to bolster the "intelligence network" along the porous 1,643-kilometer land border with Myanmar. According to a sources, "It was an intelligence failure since the ambush was not an overnight operation. The militants would have required at least three to four weeks of reconnaissance, local liaison, preparation and practice." Nagaland Post further adds that according to a Times of India report latest inputs from Myanmar show significant official support to NSCN-K which has almost completely shifted its armed cadres to the neighbouring country. Early this week, NSCN-K’ chief ‘ SS Khaplang was airlifted to a hospital in Yangon with state assistance. Since the abrogation of cease fire on March 2015, about 400 NSCN-K militants have shifted base to Myanmar.

According to a senior Government official NSCN-K abrogated its ceasefire pact following instructions from the PLA. Government official also stated that “We held a meeting with our Myanmar counterparts in April this year [2014] and handed over intercepts of phone conversations between two PLA officials and Khaplang, the leader of the insurgent group. In the said intercept, the Chinese PLA official asks SS Khaplang about his health, tells him to relax and asks him to learn Chinese language,” Sources said that officials also took up the issue of “opium cultivation and trade” being done by insurgent groups like NSCN-K, United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) and Kamtapur Liberation Organisation (KLO).

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) issued fresh summons to Kashmiri separatist leader Shabir Ahmad Shah for questioning in connection with a case pertaining to the alleged terror financing through hawala (illegal money transfer) channel, Asian Age reports on June 5. The case relates to August 2005 of Delhi Police’s Special Cell when they arrested Mohammed Aslam Wani, an alleged hawala dealer who had claimed that he had passed on INR 2.25 crore to Shah. Wani was arrested with INR 63,00,000 received through hawala channels from the West Asia and a large amount of ammunition on August 26, 2005, along with 5 kg RDX, 10 detonators and a foreign-made pistol with 15 live cartridges from an East of Kailash apartment in Delhi. According to sources, the summon has been issued through the directorate’s office based in Jammu and Kashmir. It is believed that Shah, chairman of Democratic Freedom Party of Jammu and Kashmir, has been asked to appear before the agency next week. Wani, who is currently out on a bail, has also been summoned by the ED, which had registered a case under Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) against him. Sources said Shah had allegedly asked Wani to channel hawala money to him from Delhi for which he was paid three per cent as commission. It is alleged that Shah had also given Wani the phone number of one Saifi based in Muzaffarabad in Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) who gave him instructions to collect the money.

He also added that the biggest lapse was that the route was not sanitized. "The road opening patrol should have scanned the area and identified the vulnerable ambush areas.

Meena said as a village guard Jaga surely had contacts with the Police. “But this unarmed village guard living in a remote village was nothing but a soft target for the Maoists, who owing to frustration of their declining base in Koraput District resorted to this heinous murder as part of their terror tactics,” the SP added.

Both Gabriel and Sembath deposited one HK (Heckler and Koch) rifle, 40 rounds of ammunition, one .303 rifle with 75 rounds of ammunition, 3 AK ammunition. The surrendered militants stated that it was due to intensive operations by Security Forces and also due to realisation that the GNLA lacks any ideology and principles and also that their ‘commander-in-chief’ Sohan D Shira and 'finance secretary' are misutilising the cadres for collection of money and cheating the public, that they decided to join the mainstream. They also indicated that several other cadres were willing to surrender, but the fear of their 'commander-in-chief' compelled tem to stay back. The surrendered militants also stated that United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) militants are undergoing training at the GNLA-run camps at Durama in Garo Hills.

Around 50 Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres attacked the base camp of Gammon India, a road construction company, at Kamtaul village under Kurhani Police Station limits on Muzaffarpur-Hajipur 4-lane road in Muzaffarpur District in the intervening night of June 5-6 and torched five vehicles engaged in road construction work, reports The Times of India. Commenting on the incident Muzaffarpur Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP), Ranjeet Kumar Mishra said the Maoists had brought empty gunny bags and kerosene oil which they used in setting the vehicles afire. They also slapped one of the 16 workers present at the base camp. The Maoists' operation lasted for 15 minutes during which they threw two handwritten leaflets issued by 'Muzaffarpur-Vaishali ‘sub-zonal committee’ of the CPI-Maoist at the site. The leaflets claimed they resorted to ‘military action’ as they did not get levy during the last 12 months despite assurances from the company management. The SSP suspected it to be the handiwork of the Maoists ‘sub-zonal committee’ led by Anil Ram, which is active mostly in Patepur area in Vaishali District. A suspected Maoist cadre has been arrested and is being interrogated in this connection, said the SSP.

Indian security agencies suspect that the June 7 attack on Assam Rifles (AR) camp in Arunachal Pradesh could be a prelude to a major action by Khaplang faction of National Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN-K), reports The Times of India on June 8. Fifty militants had attacked AR camp on Tirap District. An official stated that due to precise intelligence the attack was repulsed. However Intelligence agencies do not think that this would mean any lasting peace in Tirap and Changlang Districts which shares a porous border with Myanmar.

Malaysian authorities have shared with India, the interrogation and other details pertaining to a Sri Lankan national, Mohammed Hussain, who had been arrested in Malaysia on the charge of conspiring to carry out terror strikes on the US and Israeli consulates in South India, NDTV reports on June 8. The case was cracked with the arrest of the Sri Lankan national Sakir Hussain on April 29, 2014. The interrogation report suggests that Hussain had admitted he was part of the conspiracy and had promised Sakir Hussain, his compatriot, to help reach two suicide bombers to the southern coast from Maldives, official sources said. While Hussain, who has been convicted, is at present serving a jail term in Tamil Nadu, co-accused Sulaiman has been deported to Sri Lanka from Malaysian custody. National Investigation Agency (NIA) had requested Malaysia for details under the Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty (MLAT), signed by the two countries in 2012. In the interrogation report, he is alleged to have claimed that he had been tasked to ferry two terrorists from Maldives to a south Indian coast to carry out terror strike at US Consulate in Chennai (Tamil Nadu) and Israeli Consulate in Bangalore (Karnataka). The terror plot was foiled due to effective coordination by the Intelligence Bureau (IB) with foreign countries as Malaysia tipped off the central agency about an alleged conspiracy being hatched via Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI)-backed groups in Sri Lanka to carry out the attacks. Malaysia had stumbled upon the case when its Special Unit was probing money laundering and human trafficking cases. Hussain was alleged to be in touch with Pakistani ISI officers. The probe was handed over to NIA by the Tamil Nadu Police so that the conspiracy hatched overseas including in Sri Lanka and Malaysia could be unravelled. Hussain has named Colombo-based Pakistan High Commission's Visa Consular Amir Zubair Siddiqui as his handler, a charge denied by Islamabad. However, facing heat from India, Pakistan shifted Siddiqui out of Colombo. Hussain had told interrogators that Pakistan's ISI was behind the terror plot, the sources claimed. The reason for ISI to pick him up, according to Hussain, was that he had expertise in human trafficking, making forged passports, and smuggling Fake Indian Currency Note (FICN).

Further, The Sangai Express adds that AR on June 9 raided a rebel camp near the Konkan area in Kamjong sub-division of Ukhrul. Also the dead body recovered on June 8, at Leibung village in Chandel District has been identified to be of a KYKL militant, identified as a Rajen. Also, as the Army Operation unfolds, the focus is also on a cluster of villages along the India-Myanmar border. One of them is Pahaikoh, a Kuki village located right on the border in Ukhrul District is the “bit of grey’’ area as there is no definite border demarcation between the two countries here. Another is Chassad village, the sub-divisional headquarter of Ukhrul District also the operating base of 44 Assam Rifles, has seen several attacks on Assam Rifles by militant groups. According to a source, “There are a group of villages on the Ukhrul-Myanmar border that are rife with militant activity. The underground groups move freely here and travel frequently from their camps in Myanmar, right up to Griham village, which is well within the Indian border.” There are frequent attacks on the security forces here. But the groups behind the attacks are all valley groups, which have a large presence across the border near Ukhrul — primarily the United National Liberation Front (UNLF), which is the strongest in the area, and also the KYKL, This particular belt, including Phaikoh, Konkang and Aishi villages, all in Ukhrul District, is highly sensitive and witnesses regular attacks on AR. Security experts claim that Chorokhurnao village in Ukhrul District was, in all probability, used by the insurgents, on June 4 as a passage to Paornol in Chandel, as it is the shortest and safest route to the location of the ambush. These villages are believed to be controlled by the Manipur Naga People’s Front (MNPF), which does not have cordial relations either with Isak-Muivah faction of NSCN (NSCN-IM) and NSCN-K.

Further, three months before the June 4 ambush, Government of India (GoI) was working on a strategy to use dissident NSCN-K militants against the organisation, reports The Indian Express on June 9. The deal, endorsed by Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh, was put in place after NSCN-K abrogated a ceasefire pact with GoI. Intelligence sources said the deal involved engaging NSCN-K dissidents Wangting Naga and P Tikhak, who were expelled by the group in March. The two dissidents met Indian intelligence officials at Dimapur on March 27, where they were informed that New Delhi found NSCN-K ‘chief’ Khaplang’s provision of military infrastructure to other North-east insurgent groups unacceptable. The men were asked to push their chief to resume the ceasefire and join peace talks. Khaplang, however, rejected pleas from Naga and Tikhak, and expelled them from the organisation. The decision marked a split between the India-based leadership of the NSCN-K, and its ranks across the border in Myanmar, who had, in 2012, signed a separate peace treaty with that country’s army, and believed themselves secure in their bases there. New Delhi’s decision to work with NSCN-K dissidents, intelligence officials say may have provoked Khaplang to resume attacks on Indian forces. Also, Khaplang has emerged as the most important insurgent leader in North East region, reports The Times of India on June 9. Khaplang, a Hemi Naga tribesman from Myanmar has edged past the Meghen ,‘chairman’ of the region's biggest outfit United National Liberation Front (UNLF) of Manipur, , who is now in Guwahati Jail. Meghen wanted to become the ‘chairman’ of the newly floated United Liberation Front of Western South East Asia (UNLFW) Intelligence agencies intercepted messages sent by Meghen from Guwahati jail, directing his group not to join the UNLFW if the chairman's post is not given to him. A source stated that "Khaplang did not agree to this and he went ahead with the formation of the UNLFW on April 17 with just three other member outfits Independent faction of United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA-I), IK Songbijit faction of National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB-IKS) and Kamtapur Liberation Organisation (KLO), besides NSCN-K. According to the initial plan, the UNLFW was supposed to be the common platform of all NE militant outfits, including Coordination Committee (CorCom), an umbrella outfit of 6 Meitei militant groups. CorCom hasn't joined the UNLFW but Khaplang managed to get on board the two CorCom groups KYKL and Kangleipak Communist Party (KCP) for June 4 ambush.

The Maoists also left a note near the body, in which they accused Singh of providing “crucial inputs” to the Police about their movements. “Sodi Chandra Singh had been associated with the Police’s intelligence network since 2013. He continuously provided inputs of our People’s Liberation Guerrilla Army meetings to the Police.

Army Sources said on June 9 that at least 20 militants were killed in the military operation in Myanmar, reports The Times of India. According to army, another 11 militants suffered serious injuries while 15 others suffered light injuries. Meanwhile, Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) sources said the toll was around 50 at least. According to The Hindu, the death toll could touch 70. Some sources had earlier put the total number of dead at about 100. Meanwhile, sources said on June 10 that more such operations could not be ruled out given the “scale” of the Northeast militant infrastructure across the border, reports The Indian Express. Sources said there are an estimated 20 camps which are likely targets. Officials also maintained ambiguity over the Operation saying “all is not over”. The Indian Express reports that militant camps are not very deep in Myanmar territory. They lie close to a local commercial route between India and Myanmar, allowing the militants to extort money from traders.

However, The Telegraph on June 10 reports that according to The Wall Street Journal, Zaw Htay had confirmed that Indian troops had entered his country. He said that there was "coordination and cooperation" between the Indian troops and Myanmar's armed forces. But he also added that no Myanmar soldiers were directly involved. In related news, although Chinese authorities maintain a studied silence, think tanks in the country have rubbished allegations of the involvement of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) in the Manipur ambush, reports The Hindu on June 10. Also, there’s distrust of the Myanmar Army in the Indian security establishment when it comes to operations against NSCN-K, reports The Times of India on June 10. NSCN-K signed a ceasefire agreement with the Myanmar army. The agreement provides NSCN-K significant amount of free movement within Myanmar and into India. What adds further to suspicion of the Myanmar army is that insurgent groups, now operating under the NSCN-K umbrella, have been providing "protection" money to Myanmar military's middle and lower functionaries. Several militant groups such Independent faction of United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA-I), Kamtapur Liberation Organisation (KLO) and National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB) have also been operating under Khaplang's overall guidance. These groups pay "protection" money to the Myanmar Army for facilitating free movement across the border. A Senior source stated that It is not so much the NSCN(K) but other groups that have been paying the Myanmar Army. The relationship is very cosy," a senior source said explaining why Indian agencies are wary of the Myanmar army. This also explains why India did not alert Myanmar.

On June 9, Indian Army's surgical strike deep inside Myanmar, bordering Manipur, lasted for about 45 minutes and over 100 northeast militants may have been killed in the operation, stated a source from Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA), reports The Times of India. Six injured rebels are admitted in a hospital. Myanmar has since cordoned off the area where Indian Army undertook operations against northeast insurgents. On Nagaland border too, Army's Special Forces pursued militants into Myanmar and killed 15 insurgents. Indian Air Force choppers and drones assisted the Special Forces. Army's Additional Director General of Military Operations, Major General Ranbir Singh, stated, “Based on these intelligence reports we conducted operations ... we conducted operations in the morning and significant casualties (of militants) have been reported. Today morning, two separate groups were engaged near the India-Myanmar border and along the Nagaland-Manipur border”, reports The Times of India. While he said the operation was carried out "along the Indo-Myanmar border at two locations, along the Nagaland and Manipur borders", PTI quoting sources reported the strike was carried out inside Myanmar with the coordination of local authorities. Technical intercepts and reconnaissance missions confirmed the presence of the militants in the two camps, which was kept under surveillance by Air Force Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs) for hours and later Indian Air Force helicopters dropped Para Commandos inside Myanmar late on June 8. The Telegraph reports on June 9 that according to a source in the security establishment, at least one raid was carried out in Onzia inside Myanmar. Indian Express further adds that while the Army’s statement said that the operations were at two locations along the Indo-Myanmar border in Manipur and Nagaland, sources said Special Forces had gone across the border and were in “constant communication with Myanmar authorities”. Sources said the operations were conducted by 21 Special Forces (Para), along with troops of 27 Sector and 10 Sector of Assam Rifles (AR). 27 Sector is headquartered at Pallel in Chandel district while 10 Sector is headquartered at Ukhrul and its area of responsibility stretches to the Myanmar border in Nagaland. The operations are being led by IG Assam Rifles (South), Major General Rajeev Chopra. According to sources Operation is believed to have been going on for about 48 hours and parts of it is still ongoing. Union Minister of state for information and broadcasting Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore stated that it was a cross border operation The Times of India reports that the operation, conceived as retaliation for June 4 ambush, had begun at 3am. The troops were guided to two camps of NSCN-K and allied insurgent groups by intelligence which was gathered by operatives who crossed over into Myanmar a couple of days ago and returned with precise co-ordinates of the terror dens along with photographs. India had an agreement with Myanmar to allow troops to enter each other's territory in search of terrorists, but with consent. However, for the June 9 Operation, Government not inform Myanmar in advance fearing possible leak of information, given the close contact NSCN-K has with middle and lower level of Myanmar Army. NSCN-K has a total strength of 1500, out of which 1000 are in Myanmar, reports The Times of India on June 9.

India and Bangladesh have decided to exchange all information on terror organizations, including the Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) which as responsible for the October 2, 2014 blast at Khagragarh in Bardhaman District of West Bengal, The Times of India reports on June 11. A recent press release from Bangladesh's Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) stated: "We also shared evidence of the three fugitive Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh operatives' involvement in the blast." However, the exercise is not merely restricted to JMB only. Inputs with Research and Analysis Wing (R&AW), India's external intelligence agency, confirm that Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and its political wing, Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD), are working on extending their footprint along the Bangladesh-Myanmar border by taking advantage of the sectarian violence involving Rakhine Buddhists and Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar's Rakhine state. According to information, JuD strongman Hafiz Muhammad Saeed is leading the anti-Myanmar campaign, espousing the cause of Rohingyas from various platforms in Pakistan, while his terror subordinates are visiting the Bangladesh-Myanmar border region. Indian intelligence agencies fear the Bangladesh-Myanmar border might emerge as a new theatre of jihad in the not-too-distant future. The NIA had arrested a Rohingya in the Khagragarh case but later dropped his name from the chargesheet as they "did not have enough evidence" against him. Intelligence inputs also suggest that apart from creating a new forum, Difa-e-Musalman Arakan (Burma) Conference (Defence of Muslims in Myanmar), to mobilize support for an anti-Myanmar government campaign, JuD deputed a two-member team, comprising its spokesperson Nadeem Awan and publications wing member Shahid Mahmood Rehmatullah to forge covert links with similar Islamic outfits in Bangladesh and Myanmar.

The Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) is planning to procure new type of drones for use in anti-Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) operations, said Director General (DG) of CRPF Prakash Mishra in Koraput District on June 10, reports The Hindu. The DG of CRPF was in the District to review the CRPF activity in the Maoist-prone area and to inaugurate several infrastructural facilities of Commando Battalion for Resolute Action (CoBRA) stationed at Sunabeda in the District for anti-Maoist operations. While speaking to newsmen, DG Mishra said if needed drones would also be used in anti-Maoist operations in Odisha. But he added that the drones used till now have not brought in remarkable results, so they are planning to procure new type of drones that would be fruitful for anti-Maoist operations. Strategies that have brought successes to anti-Maoist operations in Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh would be replicated in other Maoist-prone States like Odisha, he added.

With around 15-20 insurgents of Khaplang faction of National Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN-K) and other allied groups reportedly crossing over from Myanmar for possible retaliatory strikes in North East, Government of India (GoI) has put the states of Manipur, Nagaland, Arunachal Pradesh and Assam on alert, reports The Times of India on June 11. The tightened vigil comes as Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh held a meeting the Army and intelligence brass to take stock of the situation in the wake of June 9 operation. The meeting agreed that the offensive against North-eastern insurgents' hideouts in Myanmar should be taken to its logical conclusion with further strikes, but in due coordination with the Myanmar authorities. A senior Home Ministry official stated that "While the defensive strategies would include stepping up alert in bordering states of Manipur, Nagaland and Arunachal Pradesh, the offensive strategy involves identification and mapping of the camps across the border followed by joint operations with Myanmarese forces," Inputs suggests that several cadres of NSCN-K units including ‘mobile unit 5’, ‘2nd brigade’ are already camping in the Ukhrul (Manipur), Grihang (Manipur), Phek (Nagaland) and Tirap (Arunachal Pradesh) regions. According to inputs, the militants have planned June 4 like ambushes on Indian Army, BSF and Assam Rifle contingents in these areas. "Ukhrul has been chosen for a major strike because it is the stronghold of their rival Isak-Muivah faction of NSCN (NSCN-IM).

Further, National Security Advisor (NSA) Ajit Doval will visit Myanmar on June 17 where he will meet their top leaders which could include President U Thein Sein, reports The Sangai Express on June 12. Also, sources have maintained that India invoked May 2014 Border Agreement with Myanmar on border cooperation which provides for a framework for security cooperation and exchange of information between security agencies of the two countries. A key provision of the pact was conduct of coordinated patrols on their respective sides of the international border and the maritime boundary by the armed forces of the two countries. The decision to approve cross-border strikes in Myanmar to target militants from the NSCN-K was taken during a meeting on June 5 of the Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS), chaired by Prime Minister, reports The Indian Express. The CCS meeting, which was attended by Home Minister Rajnath Singh, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley, External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj and Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar, directed the NSA Ajit Doval and Army Chief General Dalbir Suhag to plan the strikes. Early on June 5, Parrikar conveyed to Modi that the Army wanted permission to prepare for a “revenge attack” on the militants who had moved about 4 km into Myanmar by then.

Further, Union Minister of state for Development of North Eastern Region (DoNER) Dr. Jitendra Singh on June 11 stated that the Government is committed to peace in the North Eastern region, reports Nagaland Post. He further said that “GoI may consider if NSCN -K wishes to come forward for cease-fire. The door is open to any insurgent groups who want to come to the negotiating table.” He also brushed aside the observations in a section of media that India was going to be aggressive or hawkish in its approach in Northeast. R.N Ravi, interlocutor of Naga peace talks stated that talks with NSCN-IM was progressing well. “The ongoing peace talks are progressing very well,” he said, adding, it should not take too long to get its result. Also, R.N Ravi blamed the NSCN-K for abrogation of the ceasefire. He said the Centre had wanted to hold talks with all Naga groups to resolve the Naga issue, but the NSCN-K decided to abrogate the truce. He stated that "When the NSCN-K came into the ceasefire in 2001, the group had a position of not starting talks until the talks with the Isak-Muivah faction of National Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN-IM) failed. It is not that the Centre did not want to talk to them. We are intrigued why they revoked the ceasefire and started these activities, reports The Telegraph. DoNER minister evaded most of the questions on the GoI plan to deal with the NSCN (K) and claims and counter-claims over the raid on Northeast militant camps inside Myanmar by saying these were "sensitive security issues" that were "beyond my brief."

It has been estimated that People’s Liberation Army (PLA) and Manipur Naga Revolutionary Front (MNRF) sustained 68 casualties during the cross Border raid into Myanmar on June 9, reports The Times of India on June 12. It is also estimated that Khaplang faction of National Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN-K) suffered 15 casualties as they vacated a camp across Nagaland-Myanmar border soon after the Army Special Forces struck. There is no official confirmation yet on the casualties suffered by and other insurgent outfits in the raid, intelligence reports with the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) indicate that at least 19 insurgents killed in the operation were buried on June 11, with a burial in the presence of a Buddhist religious leader. A Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) source stated that information regarding the burial of insurgents' bodies in the presence of a Buddhist religious leader came from intelligence assets both on Indian and Myanmar side of the border, reports The Times of India. The Ministry has also learnt from multiple sources, including those based in villages dotting the Myanmar-Manipur border and trusted aides in touch with Myanmar authorities that around 49 bodies were removed from the site where the camps stood after the Army raid. In addition, as many as 60 injured militants were shifted out in 12-13 vehicles to safer locations in Kalemyo in Sagaing District, Mandalay in Mandalay District and beyond. UMHA officials insist their casualty estimates are credible since they are based on ground reports collated after speaking to local villagers and sources in touch with the Myanmar army and intelligence agencies. The officials claimed that the figures are more or less corroborated by ground reports collected by Military Intelligence, reports The Times of India on June 12. Initial reports coming in a day after the raids had indicated that 30 insurgents were killed and six injured. This figure was further revised to 38 killed and 12 injured later. However, fresh intelligence inputs on June 12 pointed to a much higher casualty figure at 68 killed in camps across Manipur and 15 across Nagaland, besides 60 injured. In related news, June 9 cross-border strikes by the Army on insurgents inside Myanmar may have had less impact on their military capacity than early assessments had indicated, reports The Indian Express on June 11. According to assessments being conducted by the Army with Intelligence services, just seven bodies have been recovered so far and less than a dozen insurgents were injured. A senior Military Intelligence official stated that, the targets, one camp in Onzia and two adjacent camps in Ponyo, did not hit perpetrators of the June 4 ambush. The Special Forces went almost 11 km inside Myanmar, 5 km farther than what had been initially planned. One camp destroyed in Ponyo was being led by Niki Sumi, ‘lieutenant general’ of NSCN-K. But Sumi and an estimated 40 militants of the group are said to have left the camp before the strike. Two separate military officials said the more lethal strike targeted the Onzia camp unconnected to NSCN-K or KYKL. Indian intelligence had reported since at least 2010 the Onzia camp used to house the so-called 253 Mobile Battalion of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA). The camp, Manipur Police sources said, operated mainly to extort funds from traffickers and traders. An Army spokesperson said that the Army was aware the camp did not house NSCN-K personnel but added that the target was an umbrella of organisations rather than a specific group. The second Army attack targeted two adjacent NSCN-K facilities at Ponyo, near the Myanmar town of Lahe, just across the border from the Mon District in Nagaland. According to Nagaland Police officials it is a relatively minor facility, served as launch-pad for NSCN-K movement into Nagaland from its rear bases around Taga, in Myanmar’s Sagaing District. The Telegraph further adds on July 12 that according to information reaching the Government, Khaplang ‘commands’ 400 armed militants.

Movement of terror elements across the International Border, smuggling of Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICN) into India and narcotics to Bangladesh featured in the four-day Inspectors General level conference between the Border Security Force (BSF) and Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) that concluded at Kolkata on June 11, reports The Times of India. "Both sides expressed their concern about the suspected movement of terror elements across the border. Bangladesh is particularly concerned after the Khagragarh blast that revealed how Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) modules operated in West Bengal. We assured the BGB that care will be taken to prevent movement of jehadis across the border and their officers told us that steps will continue to be taken against anti-Indian militant groups that have operated from Bangladesh in the past. The BSF also brought up the issue of attack on Indian border troopers by Bangladeshi smugglers," a senior BSF official said. The BSF also pointed to the large numbers of FICN seized over the last several years and urged the BGB to increase patrolling. Theft of cattle from Indian villages and abduction of Indian nationals were also discussed. Joint patrolling in vulnerable areas and confidence-building measures between the two forces were discussed. "The BGB agreed to extend all co-operation in operations against FICN and gold smugglers. There will be co-ordinated patrolling in vulnerable and smuggling prone areas. Stress will be laid on more joint events like sports and games to forge better relations between the two forces and the border populations. Head of BGB delegation of Brigadier Geneneral D S M Shaheedul Islam spoke of the contribution made by Indian armed forces in the Liberation War of Bangladesh and assured his commitment towards Indo - Bangladesh Border Guidelines, 1975. He also expressed his gratitude to Government of India for signing Land Boundary Agreement and addressing long-pending border issues. Both forces mutually agreed that field commanders will meet frequently and work out details for implementation of the land boundary agreement," the official added.

The security establishment in Bengal is suspects that Kamtapur Liberation Organization (KLO) ‘chairman’ Jibon Singh may have been killed in the Army operation in Myanmar on June 9, reports Times of India. There are reports that three of the bodies that were brought back from the Myanmar encounter site were taken to Jorhat Medical College (Assam) for autopsy. One of them could be Jibon's, say sources, adding that DNA tests may be done to ascertain identity. According to sources, a police team, led by Kumargram Police Station In-Charge S G Wangdi, met Jibon's sister Sumitra Barman at her house in Sankosh, Alipurduar District, on June 11. Sumitra, who had trained as a militant under Jibon, said: "I have been in touch with my brother on a regular basis. So far I have not received news of his death." Police did come to her house asking about Jibon, she said. "We have been trying to get any news about him all through the day. But we have heard nothing. We are trying to independently confirm the news," she added. KLO was founded in December 1995 as an expression of Koch-Rajbongshi ambition with an aim to carve out a Kamtapur state comprising six District of Bengal (Cooch Behar, Darjeeling, Jalpaiguri, Malda and North and South Dinajpur), four District of Assam (Kokrajhar, Bongaigaon, Dhubri and Goalpara), Kishanganj (Bihar) and Jhapa (Nepal).

Interlocutor R. N. Ravi also reiterated that all other Naga groups would also be taken onboard at an “appropriate time”. He said, “We have made it very clear that final solution will not be there without taking the Nagas and other groups on board”.

The ‘commander-in-chief’ of the United Liberation Front of Asom- Independent (ULFA-I), Paresh Baruah on June 13 alleged that the Government of India is trying to gauge the mood of the neighbouring countries including Myanmar with the propaganda of launching an attack against the rebels in foreign soil, reports The Assam Tribune. He also said attacks and counter-attacks would continue in a “conflict zone”. Paresh Baruah claimed that they did not see any attack by the Indian Army in Myanmar and Kamatapur Liberation Organisation (KLO) chief Jiban Singha was safe. He alleged that by launching the propaganda of the attack, the Government of India tried to gauge the mood of the governments of the neighbouring countries. “It is apparent that the Government of India tried to gauge the mood of the Government of Myanmar as it must have planned such an attack. But the Myanmar Government made it clear that it is a sovereign country and would not allow any such attacks by the army of a different country,” Baruah added. On India’s repeated requests to Myanmar to flush out the rebels, Baruah said the ‘chairman’ of Nationalist Socialist Council of Nagaland-Khaplang (NSCN-K), SS Khaplang is a native of Myanmar and he cannot be flushed out from that country. He revealed that Khaplang, who is also the chairman of the newly formed platform of four militant groups of the North-east, had already signed a ceasefire pact with the Government of Myanmar.

The intelligence agencies have noted with concern the commemoration of 31st anniversary of Operation Blue Star by hardline Sikh elements across UK, France, US, Germany, Pakistan and Malaysia, in the first week of June, The Times of India reports on June 16. The Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) which has got inputs regarding the demonstrations and marches organised by groups that are either remnants of Sikh militant outfits like Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) or harbour pro-militancy views, is worried that such outfits may have been encouraged by allegedly sympathetic stance of the Shiromani Akali Dal government in Punjab towards militant leaders. The activities reported by agencies from across the world, coinciding with the anniversary of Operation Blue Star in the first week of June, included an event organized by the Gurudwara Committee of Bobigny in Paris (France) on June 7, in coordination with the International Sikh Youth Federation (ISYF). It saw the participants extending their support to Surat Singh Khalsa, who is on a fast in Ludhiana to demand release of incarcerated Sikh militants who have completed their jail terms. Commemoration of Operation Blue Star in Germany, organised with support from Babbar Khalsa elements, was attended by 100-110 people. Around 8-10 of them were reported to be of Pakistan/Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) origin. The event, which had Kashmiri hardliners extending support to Sikh extremism, militancy, had better attendance than the 40 persons who were part of the 30th anniversary last year. In Malaysia, around 60-75 people were part of an event organized a Sahib Hulu Kelang Ampang gurudwara in Selangur. Pakistan, which has its own Pakistan Shiromani Gurudwara Prabandhak Committee saw a sit-in demonstration at Nankana Sahib and submission of a memorandum to Punjab minister for minorities Tahir Khalil Sandhu. In UK, the Federal Sikh Organisation took out a remembrance march at Ghallughra. Another 3,000 people were part of an event in Hyde Park. A march to Waterloo Place was organized to express solidarity with Surat Singh Khalsa. In the US, a demonstration was organized by around 60-70 people outside the Indian consulate in San Francisco. Punit Khalsa Kaur, a young girl, is said to have made a pro-militancy speech. The agencies noted that this was not the first time such a speech was made by her. Around 6,000-8,000 people are said to have participated in Operation Blue Star commemoration events in California.

The Odisha State Government reiterated its demand for waiver of deployment cost of Central Armed Paramilitary Forces (CAPF) in the State even as the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) has not responded to several of its requests in this regard, reports New Indian Express on June 16. The Centre has asked the State Government to pay INR 14.5 billion towards the cost of deployment of CAPF, engaged in fighting the Left Wing Extremists (LWEs). The State Government is, however, of the opinion that combating the LWEs is the joint responsibility of the Centre and the State. Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik raised the issue during his meeting with Union Home Minister (UHM) Rajnath Singh on June 13. The State Government has trained and deployed over 30,000 Police personnel, with own resources to contain the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) menace. At present, 18 Battalions of Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) and Border Security Force (BSF) troopers are deployed in Odisha. Stating that containment of the LWE is a collective responsibility of the Centre and the State Government, Naveen said the Centre should reconsider its existing policy and bear the entire cost of deployment of CAPF for anti-Maoist operations.

Government sources believe that Bangladesh has been proactive in shutting all safe havens for anti-India insurgent groups and if Myanmar were to follow suit, it would break the back of insurgency in the Northeast.

Meanwhile, SFs on June 17 claimed that IK Songbijit faction of National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB-IKS) has at least 10 to 12 women cadres, after they arrested one of them in Chirang District on the same day, reports The Telegraph. Police said they stumbled on the fact following the arrest of Nijira Basumatary (24) alias B. Nenai, who not only worked with male cadres but also staged protests against the counter-insurgency operation by security forces. "Of the 10 to 12 cadres, three are active in Chirang district. We are looking for the other two," Chirang superintendent of police Ranjan Bhuyan said. "She accompanied the outfit's leader G. Bidai in Ultapani forest in Kokrajhar District till the anti-insurgency operation was launched in January. The police recovered a grenade and some documents from her," Bhuyan said. In addition, Defence spokesperson Lieutenant Colonel Suneet Newton added that the arrested NDFB-IKS, Nijira Basumatary alias B. Nenai (24), was also spreading negative propaganda against the government and organised protests against the operations being carried out by SFs, reports The Telegraph. She was also working as a courier and supplying ration in the jungles and was involved in the December 2014 Adivasis massacre. The Police said the woman cadres were aged between 16 and 20 years. Chirang and Bongaigaon police had detained 16 girls from New Bongaigaon on suspicion of being new recruits of the NDFB-IKS last year. "Since girls are not suspected easily as militants by security forces, the outfit is now using them as over ground workers," another Police source said. Lieutenant Colonel Suneet Newton further claimed that NDFB-IKS, United Liberation Front of Asom- Independent (ULFA-I) and Kamtapur Liberation Organisation (KLO) cadres operating in lower Assam had launched a "propaganda" against the SFs.

Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh has approved creation of 477 new posts in the Intelligence Bureau (IB) for cyber security, Hindustan Times reports on June 18. “Singh has approved 477 new posts in the IB, the country’s domestic intelligence agency, in various ranks,” said an unnamed government official. Sources say the government has initiated a plan to gradually increase the cyber security workforce of the country and strengthening the cyber security infrastructure of the IB is part of that plan. The government has already approved establishing National Cyber Coordination Centre which will be responsible for all forms of cyber intelligence and cyber security issues. Indian Express adds that the “cyber-security architecture” will work independently of the National Technical Research Organisation (NTRO), which works under the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO). The wing, will work under IB, headed by a joint director rank officer. “IB has a separate wing for cyber-security but the creation of a full-fledged wing is required to tackle loopholes. In the past, we have seen that cyberspace was used to recruit young people to join terrorist outfits like IS [Islamic State]. The threat emanating from this medium is imminent and we require a dedicated team to crackdown on it,” said an unnamed senior government official.

Meanwhile, United Liberation Front of Asom-Independent (ULFA-I) ‘commander-in-chief’ Paresh Baruah reportedly uses two Bangladeshi mercenaries, both former Harkat-ul Jihad-al-Islami (HuJI) militants, as his bodyguards as he no longer trusts his own cadre for protection, Hindustan Times reports on June 19. The two ex-HuJI militants are Alamgir Hossain and his cousin Mohamad Gholam Nabi. Both belong to the Karatkhil village in Noakhali District of Bangladesh and are 29 years old according to their passports. According to intelligence officials, the ULFA-I 'chief' shifted base to Ruili (Yunnan Province in China) via Kunming, the headquarters of Yunnan Province that shares its western and south-western border with Myanmar. Kunming has direct flight connectivity to Dhaka (Bangladesh). Of late, however, Baruah is believed to have moved to Tengchong, which according to the Myanmar map is also on the China border and is 25-30 kilometres west of Ruili. Days before the Manipur ambush on June 4, Baruah was said to have been seen in the NSCN-Khaplang (NSCN-K) Taga base east of the Arunachal Pradesh-Nagaland-Myanmar tri-junction. Taga is a week’s trip from Tengchong by vehicle, boat and on foot. Baruah also maintains a small base at Maungdaw in Myanmar’s northern Rakhine province adjoining Mizoram and Bangladesh’s Chittagong Hill tracts. Baruah reportedly had help from friends in the Bangladeshi intelligence in setting up the Maungdaw base through Rohingya contacts, the officials said. Maungdaw and Buthidaung are among the few Myanmar towns controlled by Rohingyas in the communally-torn Rakhine area.

The National Investigating Agency (NIA) arrested Nurul Hoque alias Naeem, 'chief trainer' of the Indian module of Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB), from Howrah station in Kolkata (West Bengal) on June 18, reports The Times of India. Naeem also collected funds for the terror outfit and had undergone arms training under NSCN-K (National Socialist Council of Nagaland - Khaplang) in Myanmar. A resident of Bakshipur near Domkal in Murshidabad, the 26-year-old is a very close associate of blast mastermind and Bangladeshi national Sajid, say sources. "Naeem had been identified as a key co-conspirator and was absconding since the Bardhaman blast of October 2, 2014. A cash reward had been declared for his arrest. Several witnesses as well as interrogation of arrested JMB cadres had revealed the name of Naeem as a very active member of JMB, who was operational in Birbhum District in close association with Dalim Sheikh (in custody) and Talha Sheikh (Bangladeshi national, absconding)," an NIA statement said. Of late, Naeem had come close to bomb-maker Haath Kata Nasirullah, which led him to become the linkman between the JMB leadership in Sylhet, Bangladesh, and the Indian module. He used to collect funds for terror activities from Bardhaman, Birbhum and Murshidabad districts. Sources said Naeem's rise in JMB was hastened by Nasirarullah, who made him the number 3 in the Indian module. According to NIA, Naeem had undergone arms training at Mukimnagar Madrasa in Murshidabad District and Simulia Madrasa in Bardhaman District between 2009 and 2011 before allegedly getting advanced training at the hands of NSCN-K in Myanmar. JMB leaders made him a trainer and he coached recruits in firearms and explosives in terrorist training camps at Shantipally in Birbhum and the Simulia and Mukimnagar madrasas, say sources. He was also a motivator in radicalization camps, showing recruits jihadi video clips on a laptop.

He said the Government was instead “taken by surprise when the NSCN (K) unilaterally abrogated the cease fire”. The MoS reaffirmed the GoI’s commitment towards peaceful settlement of the Naga issue and willingness to talk with any group, civil society organisations and people. Also, The Economic Times on June 17 reported that a section in the GoI dealing with the insurgent groups in the northeast appears to be unhappy over the abrupt pause in peace talks with the NSCN-K. R N Ravi, interlocutor for the Naga talks, is said to the unhappy over the breakdown of the ceasefire agreement with the NSCN-K and is believed to have conveyed to the Prime Minister's Office about alleged "mishandling" of the Naga rebel group by Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA).

Arrested ‘chief trainer’ of the Jama’atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB), Nurul Hoque alias Naeem, revealed he was trained in guerrilla warfare at a camp run by the National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Khaplang (NSCN-K) in Myanmar, reports Hindustan Times on June 20. Hoque told interrogators he received advanced training in guerrilla warfare in a NSCN-K base in Myanmar shared with the United Liberation Front of Asom-Independent (ULFA-I). The ULFA-I facilitated his training and some more JMB members are currently being trained in the NSCN-K base in Myanmar, Hoque said. NIA officials believe the ULFA-I helped Bangladeshi radicals connect with NSCN-K. This, they said, pointed to a plan hatched well before the Naga group walked out of a 14-year-old truce in March, to destabilise the northeast and Bangladesh, currently ruled by pro-India Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. “The ULFA’s (undivided) link with Islamic radical groups is well known. There were reports of at least 200 ULFA activists having received training in Pakistan and Afghanistan by Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence and Afghan mujahideen. And at home, radical groups such as the Muslim United Liberation Tigers of Assam [MULTA] were the chief suppliers of arms for the Ulfa through Bangladesh,” said Assam Director General of Police Khagen Sarma.

National Investigation Agency (NIA) is putting up posters of absconding terrorists, most of whom are Bangladeshis involved in the October 2, 2014, Bardhaman (West Bengal) blast and training youth in arms and manufacturing of explosives, New Indian Express reports on June 20. The NIA has so far arrested 17 people in the case. But even after eight months, 12 wanted Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) terrorists are on the run. The posters of 11 militants with their photographs and the reward placed by the central agency, with some carrying as high as INR 10,00,000 on their head, are on display at bus terminus, court premises, railway stations and police stations in remote villages of Bardhaman District. Since the photograph of Rafiqul Islam from Chapainawabgunj in Bangladesh is not available, his description and built and his role in the JMB-sponsored terrorism are mentioned. “If the accused are absconders even a month after the filing of chargesheet, we can display public posters with their photographs, just like other agencies. We suspect they are hiding in the country and probably in villages with a large Bengali Muslim population,” a senior NIA official stated on June 19.

The Pune unit of Maharashtra's Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) is circulating pocket calendars for the year 2015 titled “Wanted”, which carries photographs of terror suspects wanted in different cases of terrorist attacks and extremist activities, Indian Express reports on June 20.

The U.S. State Department's “Country Terrorism Reports 2014,” noted that despite India aligning its domestic anti-money laundering and counterterrorist financing (AML-CFT) regime with international standards, “The Indian government has yet to implement the legislation effectively, however, especially with regard to criminal convictions”, The Hindu reports on June 20. The U.S. alleged that the Indian Government was restricting its enforcement anti-hawala (illegal money transfer) prosecutions to non-financial businesses only, and more than two years after the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, “the government has not taken adequate steps to ensure all relevant industries are complying…” What the report says, "India is restricting its enforcement of anti-hawala prosecutions to non-financial businesses only. United States investigators have had limited success in coordinating the seizure of illegal proceeds with their Indian counterparts. India continued to be a major target for a range of terrorist groups; in 2014, around 400 people were killed as a result of terrorist attacks in India..." The report also outlined the serious nature of the threat posed to India by Islamic State (IS), asserting. “Given India’s large Muslim population, potential socio-religious marginalization, and active [IS] online propaganda efforts, there remains a risk of increased [IS] recruitment of Indian nationals.” The U.S. performed a careful balancing act by calling Pakistan, an ally in its fight against terror, both a target of numerous terrorist attacks and also as a country that had failed to act effectively against groups that threatened India, such as Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT). “LeT and its alias organisations continued to operate freely in Pakistan, and there were no indications that Pakistan took significant enforcement actions against the group,” the State Department said in its report. The report also remarked upon the region-wide effects of Pakistan allowing LeT to operate freely on its soil, citing the May 26, 2014 attack by the terror outfit against the Indian Consulate in Herat, Afghanistan.

With Maoists on active mode, the Odisha State Police administration is contemplating to redeploy Forces in certain areas of western and northern regions from where Security Force (SF) personnel had been withdrawn in the past, reports The Pioneer. “We will redeploy forces at those places from where they were withdrawn months back. As the situation has changed, we have decided to take proactive measures,” Director General of Police (DGP) Sanjeev Marik told media persons on June 20. Marik claimed that strength of the State police has increased manifold, and State forces’ dependence on Central forces to tackle Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) menace has declined. “State forces like District Voluntary Force (DVF) and Special Operation Group (SOG) are fighting against Maoists along with Central forces. The strength of SOG has now increased to 3,000 from 1,500,” DGP said. He further said Odisha Police are gaining self-sufficiency in containing the Maoist menace due to increase in manpower to 65,000 from 40,000 in the last 12 years. He also said that Maoists activities have declined in K Balang, Koira, Bonai and Lathikata areas which were earlier considered their stranglehold. The DGP added though Maoist activities have come down drastically, forces would be redeployed along the borders of Sambalpur, Sundargarh and Deogarh Districts to tackle the small Maoist groups. “Jharkhand-based splinter Maoist outfit People’s Liberation Front of India (PLFI) and another Jharkhand-based criminal outfit Pahadi Cheetah have been neutralised on Sundargarh side of the border in Odisha,” he said.

Nagaland Post on June 22 reports GoI has given nod to reverse the “historical blunders” and “unconstitutional acts” of Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) through which an executive order in 2005-06 had debarred the State Government from intervening into any law and order issue concerning NSCN. Authoritative Security sources stated that even elected representatives of the state had very little say on Naga peace talks and that State Government was not a part of the standard operating procedure (SOP) on dealing with NSCN. Indicating that the GoI was prepared to take the views of Naga civil society into account in finding an amicable solution to the problem besides making the state government a party to the SOP, security sources regretted that most of the stakeholders, including the State Government, was kept in dark over the ongoing peace talks. R. N Ravi, the chief interlocutor for Naga peace talks stated, “The focus of the Centre has been to reverse all those mistakes that have been dragging the peace-talks since 1997 without any solution.” He asserted that solution of the Naga peace talks was not possible without the pro-active and transparent involvement of all the stakeholders.

Separately, The Times of India on June 22 reports that according to Intelligence inputs, Government of India (GoI) aggressive stand against Khaplang faction of National Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN-K) including the commando raid across the border into Myanmar on June 9, may have dented the militant group's morale. An official stated that on the basis on intercepts and contacts across the border, NSCN-K is not expected to make any effort at a major attack on Indian security forces for some time to come. There are also indications that NSCN-K is facing pressure from Myanmarese authorities not to carry out any violent activities in India. Yet another reason for the group to lie low is local hostility towards their attacks on Indian security forces, which dramatically disrupt daily life. An official argued that "If pressure is kept up, they will come back to negotiations, not just because of security imperatives but financial reasons."

Closing in on the militant camps operating in Myanmar, Myanmar Army has positioned itself nearer Indian border in a bid to choke the supply route of insurgents, reports The Sangai Express on June 25. Indian officials stated that the current operation is aimed at insurgent camps operating in Taga of Myanmar which requires seven days of travel through dense jungles from Indo-Myanmar border. Sources also stated that Myanmar forces are not allowing anyone from Indian side to carry ration more than two kilograms to cross the border which is expected to leave the insurgents short of supplies. The insurgents operating in North Eastern region of the country often threaten villagers asking them to provide them with daily provision, food supplies and intelligence. This movement of villagers has now been blocked because of the increased presence of uniformed men on both sides of the border having a difficult terrain and dense forests, which provide a hideout to the insurgents and their informers.

Meanwhile, the Karbi Anglong Rubber Growers' Association (KARG) had submitted a memorandum to Governor P.B. Acharya on June 14 during his visit to Karbi Anglong to take stock of the problems, prominently extortion by militant groups in Karbi Anglong District, reports The Telegraph on June 25. "Rubber growers are facing the brunt of antisocial elements who make extortion demands and threats from militant groups. Some rubber garden supervisors had been kidnapped for ransom and some were murdered brutally," said the memorandum. With rubber plantation spreading over 10,000 hectares in this central Assam hill district, extortion and threats from numerous militant groups have given rise to a serious problem. "Karbi Anglong can help Assam overtake Tripura and Kerala in rubber production. But extortion by various militant groups has emerged as the biggest obstacle," Longsing Teron, ‘general secretary’ of Karbi Anglong Rubber Growers' Association, told.

The Yerawada Central Prison in Pune (Maharashtra) will be under the surveillance of 112 closed circuit television (CCTV) cameras installed to keep an eye on illicit activities and providing better security, The Times of India reports on June 25. The prison has only about 500 Policemen looking after 3,800 inmates, which made the jail management a daunting task with recent raids showing inmates had access to cellphones and narcotic substances. The entire jail premises, including the high-security 'Anda cell', barracks where prisoners live, the area outside the main gate and also the road along the prison will be covered by the cameras. The need for CCTV cameras on the jail premises was first underlined after the murder of an alleged Indian Mujahideen (IM) operative, Quateel Siddiqui, inside the prison on May 8, 2012. However, it has taken three years for the administration to get the first set of cameras installed. "With a limited staff it is not possible to keep a watch on all the inmates," said a jail officer.

Separately, a group led by former ‘general secretary’ B Saoraigra of NDFB-IKS has dissolved the NDFB's ‘interim council’ formed in 2012, forming a new 'general council' ousting IK Songbijit, reports The Sentinel on June 26. In an e-mailed statement to the media, B Saoraigra, the new ‘president’ of the 'general council' said, "The ‘general assembly’ (of the outfit) held on April 14 and 15 has vowed to revamp our national struggle and declare that the former interim national council of NDFB is dissolved. A new national council is formed to fight for the liberation of sovereign, independent ‘Boroland’ by strengthening our policy." Security sources said that nearly two hundred cadres and sympathizers of the outfit have been nabbed since January, disabling the militant outfit which, according to security officials, did not have an inkling that the Government would react in such a forceful manner. Security Sources also stated that are not able to operate due to the presence of a large number of security personnel. This has also hampered their other activities, mainly extortion on which they depend for their funds. Many are blaming mismanagement by Songbijit for their present plight," There are also reports about differences cropping up within the NDFB-IKS leadership on several issues, in the wake of which Songbijit, a Karbi by birth, offered to quit.

The Biswamohan faction of National Liberation Front of Tripura (NLFT-BM) is disintegrating fast, a youth from West Tripura district, who was tricked into joining the banned outfit in April and managed to flee the clutches of the militants recently, has revealed so, reports The Telegraph. The youth identified as Sanjit Debbarma, (20), a Class VIII dropout, and son of impoverished tribal farmer Chandra Mohan Debbarma of Daodharani village under Sidhai Police Station of Sadar (north) subdivision, left home after he was promised employment and a good, regular earning by a group of tribal youths from two nearby villages. "On April 2, Sanjit left home and was taken across the border to an NLFT camp in the Segun Bagan area of Bangladesh, adjacent to the Simna area of West Tripura. There he found eight armed rebels, most of whom had been lured into the outfit with similar promises of a good job, and a good stock of ammunition," a highly placed official in the special branch (intelligence wing) of the State Police said, adding that seven of the eight cadres have since fled the camp. "Except a few leaders like NLFT ‘president’ Biswamohan Debbarma and his close colleagues, nobody will stick around in the outfit. This is what we have gathered from Sanjit," the official said.

A recent document published by the Dandakaranya Special Zonal Committee (DKSZC) of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) has revealed at least two major cases of sexual misconduct against two senior cadres, leading to one being demoted and the other being shot dead after inquiry and public court hearing, reports The Indian Express on June 27. Rammurti, a ‘commander’ of company-2 under DKZSC was found guilty of “indiscipline and anarchist and indecent behaviour with women in the area, as well as women cadres”. The document, however, does not mention the place of Rammurti’s execution. “Rammurti had joined the Naxal movement as a member of company-1 in Bastar in 2002. He exhibited indiscipline and anarchist behaviour and hence was transferred to company-2. Despite repeated advice and attempts to reform him, he did not budge. When it was decided to send him home, he threatened to go to the police and divulge details about the movement to them. So after due inquiry and consent from senior leaders, it was decided to give him death penalty. Finally, a public hearing was also organised and the decision was reaffirmed,” the document read. In another case, the in-charge ‘secretary’ of south Gadchiroli committee of Aitu was demoted to the position of a committee ‘member’ after a women cadre accused him of sexual misconduct.

Individuals and institutions in Saudi Arabia are pumping in millions of rupees into India to open religious trusts and Non-Governmental Organisations, reveal the diplomatic documents released by WikiLeaks, Sunday Guardian reports on June 27. Officials with the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) have termed this as "an attempt to help spread and propagate Wahhabism in the country". An undated document, which according to WikiLeaks, originated from the Embassy of Saudi Arabia in New Delhi, contains the list of Indian institutions and societies that have applied for financial assistance. The document suggests that the government of Saudi Arabia itself pledged donations to nine such institutions located across different states, including Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal, Kerala and Maharashtra. Saudi Arabia pledged 2.5 million Saudi Riyal (SR) to Islamic Mission Trust, "Malpurram" (Mallapuram) in Kerala, which is registered with the UMHA, ostensibly for constructing an arts and science college building. Similarly, it also pledged 1 million SR to the Kerala branch of Islamic Welfare Trust for constructing a nursing college. A similar amount was also pledged to the Palghat Mujahideen Arabic College Committee in Kerala for the purpose of extending an existing medical college and the Karuma hospital building. In Uttar Pradesh, 75,000 SR were pledged to two different societies for establishing a madrasa (Islamic seminary) building and establishing a vocational centre for girls in Mirzapur and Siddharth Nagar, respectively. WikiLeaks also released documents that showed that the Secretariat General of the Muslim World League (Mecca), a controversial organisation, had requested Saudi Arabia to encourage establishing Wahhabi centres in India. Sources in the MHA feel that the Saudi government is concerned about the growing influence of the Shia community in India and Iran's increasing closeness to India and sees this phenomenon as a threat to the majority Sunni population in the country, something that has been mentioned in their diplomatic correspondence which has been released by WikiLeaks. According to officials, India's Shia population is the world's second-largest after Iran. "To counter the increasing Shia influence, a certain section in the Saudi establishment has been propagating Wahhabism in India," says an UMHA official.

The Kerala High Court on June 26 stayed further proceedings on a single bench's order to pay compensation of INR 100,000 for illegal detention by Thunderbolt, the special police team for combating Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) activities in the State, reports The Times of India. A division bench comprising Chief Justice Ashok Bhushan and Justice A M Shaffique was considering an appeal filed by the State Government against the order. The single bench's ruling, on a petition filed by Shyam Balakrishnan of Wayanad, had also said that being a Maoist is not a crime and detaining a person for questioning will amount to illegal detention if the legal formalities of an arrest are not followed. The appeal filed by the government through senior government pleader C S Manilal says that being Maoist is a crime and the single bench's ruling is illegal. It demands that the order should be set aside. As an interim relief, it had sought a stay on further proceedings based on the judgment.

The Naveen Patnaik Government on June 26 said the State was set to lose funds to the tune of INR 21.48 billion following reduction in central allocations for States on the basis of the 14th Finance Commission report, reports The Hindu. The reason behind the huge drop in central share could be attributed to the change in pattern of some central welfare schemes and discontinuation of a few other schemes, Chief Minister was informed in a review meeting held on June 26. Patnaik expressed concerns over the sudden cut in fund provisions for Backward Region Grant Fund, police modernisation, Rajiv Gandhi Panchayat Sashaktikaran Abhiyan, model schools in blocks, tourism infrastructure development, national mission for food processing and some tribal development projects. The meeting resolved to continue some welfare schemes by utilising State’s own resources. The Chief Minister said the Centre would be requested to reconsider a cut in funding for tribal development and police modernisation in naxal (Left Wing Extremist)-affected Districts. Meanwhile, the slow pace of Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojna (PMGSY) in integrated action plan (IAP) districts has marred the objective of providing all weather connectivity to all rural and remote areas in the State, reports orissapost.com. According to data of rural development department, 7422 road projects had been sanctioned under the PMGSY till May 2015, out of which 2178 projects are going at a snail’s pace.

The Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) is believed to have formed a ‘new committee’ called the Malkangiri-Visakha-Koraput Divisional Committee with an experienced leader at the helm to strengthen the rank and file and regain their past glory, reports The Times of India on June 28. With the Security Forces (SFs) gradually limiting the movement of the CPI-Maoist cadres in the Andhra-Odisha Border (AOB) area, the Maoists have reportedly modified its tactics as well as its organizational structure. According to sources, the new division was formed after the visit of Maoist ‘central committee’ leaders to Visakha Agency in May and June this year (2015). Around 14 leaders from the Dandakaranya Zonal Committee of Chhattisgarh, including Maoist central military chief Namballa Kesava Rao alias Ganganna and ‘central regional bureau’ chief Katakam Sudarsan alias Anand are learnt to have visited the district. Few days after their visit, another team of nine members interacted with the squads and area committees in the AOB, sources said. Though one Venu calling himself the head of the Malkangiri-Visakha-Koraput divisional committee has already begun issuing press notes, the Visakha Rural cops suspect that Venu is none other the dreaded Gajarla Ravi alias Ganesh alias Uday, the present Malkangiri-Koraput border (MKB) ‘divisional committee secretary’. "Ravi, a chronic diabetic, worked as a North Telangana Special Zonal Committee (NTSZC) member but when the NTSZC lost grip over Telangana due to severe repression by security forces in the form of encounters and arrests as well as surrenders of squad members, he was transferred to the AOB Special Zonal Committee," a senior police officer involved in anti-naxal operations said.

National Investigation Agency (NIA) that is probing Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICNs) racket operating in India, found that approximately INR 15 billion of counterfeit notes pumped into the country have crossed the border through Malda border in West Bengal, The Times of India reports on June 30. The investigators have also found that most of the notes that have entered the country have been printed in Pakistan and was routed to India through Bangladesh. The National Investigating Agency say that 90 per cent of fake currency that is brought into the country have a link with the Malda unit which smuggles these notes. The investigators have found that there was dedicated lot of Pakistanis who set up shops in Bangladesh and these shops are breeding ground for trading these FICNs which are eventually routed to into India. Malda is an easy landing point as it borders with Bangladesh. This is a racket that has been going on for the past four to five years now ever since the border with Pakistan became extremely difficult for these criminals to operate on. "After the money comes to the hands of these module operatives, they pick up several youths to execute the job. They go to major cities like Mumbai or Bengaluru and start working as construction labour. Along with their work they start circulating the notes in installments. They stay on in these cities for a couple of months and manage to circulate at least INR 2,00,000 worth of fake currency each," an investigating officer said. The investigators have also found that the quality of the notes was of extremely superior and most of the security measures were preset in the notes naturally making it very difficult for the common people to understand that it is a fake currency. "Sometimes it is even difficult for the bank personnel to realise the difference without a forensic test. This is really alarming," an officer said. The investigators also noticed that the notes sourced by Pakistan to print its own currency was being used to print the Indian fake currency as well.
