Khaplang faction of NSCN (NSCN-K) is heading for another split as SS Khaplang expelled Wangtin Naga, 'supervisor' of the outfit’s Cease Fire Monitoring Supervisory Board (CFSB) on March 28. Wangtin participated in the Cease Fire meeting with the Government of India (GoI) representatives in Dimapur, reports The Assam Tribune. In a statement NSCN-K stated that ‘chairman and president’ of NSCN-K has expelled ‘kilonser’ (minister) Wangtin Naga and ‘kilonser’ Tikhak from both the ‘party’ and the ‘government’. The Telegraph further adds that sources state that the "expelled" leaders accused of toeing the "Indian government's" line, are likely to enter into a ceasefire agreement with GoI under a different name shortly. The outfit may represent "eastern Nagaland". Also GoI will now talk only to rebels who are on the Indian side. The new faction will ostensibly be led by Wangtin Naga. GoI also intends to "seal" the border with Myanmar to prevent hit-and-run attacks by NSCN-K. NSCN-K’s Khaplang's rival factions may help Security Forces (SFs) in this and this may have a larger implication as there are routes in Nagaland dominated by NSCN-K which were used by other groups for transit such as Independent faction of United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA-I), IK Songbijit faction of National Socialist Council of Nagaland (NDFB-IKS) and valley-based groups of Manipur. Khaplang has sheltered all these groups in Myanmar where he holds sway over a huge territory where Yangon hardly has any administration. The ‘military commander’ of NSCN-K Niki Sumi, is with Khaplang.
