Investigation by National Investigation Agency (NIA) has revealed that some rogue National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak Muivah (NSCN-IM) militants are supplying weapons smuggled from Myanmar, to Maoists, reports Hindustan Times on April 5. A Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) official stated that there isn’t any direct evidence yet that NSCN-IM, as an organisation, is directly involved in the smuggling of arms. However, he added that it is up to the outfit to control rogue elements helping the Maoists. According to the official this is the first instance of Nagas providing arms to Maoists. However, NSCN-IM ‘collective leadership’ member VS Atem denied his outfit’s involvement. He stated that ‘We have nothing to do with smuggling of arms to anyone. Also, we haven’t heard anything from any investigation agency yet. On February 7, Bihar Police had recovered five sophisticated weapons, including two Under Barrel Grenade Launchers (UBGLs) and three AK 47 rifles from Purnia District in Bihar. In a First Information Report (FIR) NIA had stated that these weapons were being ‘smuggled from across Myanmar border with the help of some Naga undergrounds to be supplied to Maoists and gangsters in the country’. According to NIA, further investigation revealed that the Naga militants, associated with NSCN-IM, were in touch with some members of Tritiya Prastuti Committee (TPC), a left wing extremists’ organisation which operates from Bihar and Jharkhand. Moreover, a Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) officer stated that ‘Naga militants indulge in smuggling of arms and ammunition to make money but if Maoists are ordering sophisticated weapons from them’.

The revisiting in consultation with legal experts and academicians is aimed at safeguarding tribal customs and traditions from Central laws in force or could be enacted, such as the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) intends to bring in if voted to power again. “Yes, the bill is one of the factors in our move to strengthen the Federation of Khasi States that were ruled by a Syiem (king-like head of a Hima). But things are at an initial stage. We will be holding a series of meetings to come to a conclusion on how best to insulate our customs and traditions from overriding central rules and policies,” said, Pynshngaiñ N Syiem, chairman of the Advisory Legal Committee to discuss the Instrument of Accession and Annexed Agreement on April 25.

Fearing an identity crisis due to large scale inclusion of Bengali-speaking Muslims in the complete draft National Register of Citizens, the indigenous Muslims have demanded the State Government to accord the ‘Original Inhabitants’ (OI) status to the community, reports The Sentinel. “The Indigenous Muslims of Assam are often confused with the Muslims of East Pakistan and many times considered Bangladeshis. The indigenous Muslim groups are either converts from local communities or war prisoners of the Mughal-Ahom wars. So we have a completely different identity and such an identity must be safeguarded,” eminent lawyer and social activist Nekibur Zaman said.

Government is exploring the option of constructing a strategic tunnel under the Brahmaputra river near Tezpur in Assam for unhindered movement of military vehicles, reports Economic Times on April 29. According to officials, the tunnel, measuring 12-15 Kilometres would connect north and south banks of the river. It may also have rail and road networks depending in the construction difficulties and gradents. According to officials, the main reason for planning such a tunnel is that the strategic bridges connecting different areas in Assam and Arunachal Pradesh and along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) with China are vulnerable to interference. They claimed the tunnel would ensure complete protection to military convoys. As depth and course of the Brahmaputra keep changing, the most likely option is to construct the tunnel under the river bed. Existing bridges, such as the Deopani Bridge between Arunachal’s Lower Dibang Valley and Upper Dibang Valley with Assam, remain exposed to enemy missiles. Other such structures are: the Dhola Sadiya Bridge across the Lohit river, linking Tinsukia in Assam with Roing in Arunachal, and the Bogibeel Bridge connecting Pasighat with Dibrugarh.

In the intervening night of April 30 and May 1, as agreed upon at the Ceasefire Monitoring Group level (CFMG), National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM) militants vacated the camp near Sihai Khunou village in Ukhrul District of Manipur, reports Morung Express. The intervention of Naga civil society led to an eventual agreement at the level of the CFMG/CFM Cell (CFMC) that both the sides will back off simultaneously. Assam Rifles (AR) stayed back to enter the vacant camp on April 30. They are said to have combed the camp as well as the surrounding area. Nagaland post further adds that Defence Public Relations Officer (PRO) stated that matter was resolved by security forces at the appropriate level.

The tense stand-off between troops of Assam Rifles (AR) and NSCN (I-M) cadres began in the area following the former’s objection to setting up of the camp at Sihai village.
