Government of India (GoI) has revoked Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA) from Meghalaya and eight Districts of Arunachal Pradesh following improved security situation in the region, reports The Telegraph on April 23. According to an official of Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA), ‘The AFSPA has been removed from all of Meghalaya and it has been reduced from 16 police stations in Arunachal Pradesh bordering Assam to eight with effect from March 31’. The law was withdrawn from Tripura in 2015. Earlier, a 20 kilometer inside Meghalaya along its border with Assam, was under AFSPA. In Arunachal Pradesh, it is now reduced from 16 police stations bordering Assam to eight police stations, besides Tirap, Changlang and Longding Districts which border Myanmar. According to sources, Assam Government is also exploring the possibility of revoking AFSPA from certain districts of the state which are free of insurgency. AFSPA was imposed in Assam on November 27, 1990.2017 recorded the lowest insurgency incidents and casualties since 1997. As compared to 1,963 incidents in 2000, only 308 were reported in 2017 (down 85%). There was also a 96% fall in casualties of civilians and security forces, reports Times of India on April 23. In Assam, sustained operations against National Democratic Front of Bodoland-Saraigowra (NDFB-S) saw 63 of its cadres killed and 1,052 arrested between December 2014 and March 2018. The Hindu further adds that On March 20, Hansraj Gangaram Ahir, MoS Home, informed the Lok Sabha that Centre was considering a proposal to make AFSPA more “operationally effective and humane.” Assam Tribune on April 23 reports that Assam has witnessed a decrease in violent incidents by United Liberation Front of Asom-Independent (ULFA-I) the outfit along with NDFB-S and Naga militant groups has unleashed a reign of terror in neighboring Arunachal Pradesh that has now emerged as the lone northeastern state where violence level has increased. According to the latest report of the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA), violence level in Assam has been lowest since 1997 and it decreased by 56 per cent compared to 2016. Nagaland (67 per cent), Manipur (28 per cent) and Meghalaya (59 per cent) also recorded a decrease in violence level. However, there was an increase in violent incidents (by 22 per cent) in Arunachal Pradesh in 2017. The report said though Arunachal Pradesh does not have any active indigenous insurgent group the state is affected by spillover militant activities of National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak Muivah (NSCN-IM), NSCN-Reformation (NSCN-R), NSCN-Khaplang (NSCN-K) and NSCN(Neopao Konyak-Kitovi) in Tirap, Changlang and Longding Districts. In 2017, there were 61 insurgency incidents in which nine insurgents were killed and 44 others were arrested. There were 27 cases of extortion and kidnapping in Assam in 2017. There was, however, no casualty in security forces in the state in 2017. According to the report, major militant outfits presently active in Assam are ULFA-I and NDFB-S, besides the Karbi People’s Liberation Tigers (KPLT). The report said there was a substantial improvement in security situation in Assam with insurgency-related incidents declining from 75 in 2016 to 33 in 2017.
