National Investigation Agency (NIA) interrogation of IK Songbijit faction of National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB-IKS) has revealed that Chinese made weapons come to Manipur through the China-Myanmar-India border, reports The Sangai Express on April 2. According to the interrogation report arms consignments are smuggled from the China border to South Myanmar by the Kachin rebels who hand over the weapons to Isak-Muivah faction of National Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN-IM) in Myanmar. NSCN-IM then passes on the weapons to NDFB-IKS in Manipur which are taken to Assam’s Bodoland area, where NDFB operates. Forty six NDFB-IKS militants have been arrested so far by the NIA after December 2014 massacre of tribals.

Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Kiren Rijiju has issued a clarification with regard to the extension of Armed Forces Special Powers' Act (AFSPA) in Arunachal Pradesh, stating that 20 km border belt between Assam and Arunachal Pradesh was already declared a Disturbed Area for long time due to various "terrorist and insurgent groups" operating in Assam, reports E-pao. Minister also added that splinter group of insurgents such as Independent faction of United Liberation Front of Aosm (ULFA-I) and IK Songbijit faction of National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB-IKS) have not only been using Arunachal Pradesh as a transit to Myanmar but also taking sanctuary in the bordering Districts with Assam. Earlier on April 8, Government of India (GoI) move to extend AFSPA to 12 Of 19 Districts caught Arunachal Pradesh Government by surprise, reports The Assam Tribune. According to sources Chief Minister Nabam Tuki who had arrived in New Delhi to take part in the North Eastern Council (NEC) meeting was caught unawares when he saw news reports about GoI move.

Assam, Manipur and Meghalaya continue to account for the bulk of insurgency-related incidents in the Northeast although the incidents have steadily increased in Meghalaya in the last eight years compared to the other militancy-inflicted states, reports The Telegraph on April 12. Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) report stated, "The security situation in some of the north-eastern states, which has remained complex for quite some time because of diverse demands advocated by various militant outfits, has been gradually improving in terms of reduction in violent incidents/civilians killed/security forces killed etc. in 2013 and 2014. However, in Assam casualties have gone up because of terrorist attacks by IK Songbijit faction of National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB-IKS) in December 2014." While comparing the situation in the Northeast during the past eight years, the report pointed out that violent incidents have come down from 1,489 in 2007 to 824 in 2014 and the number of civilians killed has decreased from 498 to 212. In 2014, 212 civilians and 20 security personnel were killed in the 824 militant-related activities in the Northeast. In 2013, 107 civilians and 18 security forces were killed in 732 incidents. A comparative analysis of the violent incidents reveals that in 2007, Assam had recorded a figure of 474 while in 2014, the figure had dropped to 246. In 2007, Manipur had recorded a figure of 584 while the same in 2014 was 278. Nagaland has also shown a marked improvement with 77 incidents in 2014 compared to 272 incidents in 2007. While the figures in Assam, Manipur and Nagaland have significantly dropped, the narrative for Meghalaya was different. From 28 incidents in 2007, Meghalaya recorded 179 extremist-related incidents in 2014. The report also stated, “The militant outfits of the neighbouring states have encouraged, trained and nurtured the Garo militant groups like the A'chik National Volunteers' Council (ANVC) and Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA), Independent faction of united Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA-I), NDFB-IKS, United Achik Liberation Army (UALA) and Isak-Muivah faction of National Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN -IM) also have their 'command structure' in Garo hills." However, the ANVC was disbanded in December 2014 in Tura, West Garo hills, along with its breakaway faction, the ANVC-B, after a memorandum of settlement (MoS) was signed with the outfits in September 2014.

The Central Government on April 21 ruled out the possibility of holding talks with the United Liberation Front of Asom- Independent (ULFA-I) and NDFB-IKS pointing to the groups’ involvement in ‘mindless violence’, reports The Assam Tribune. The two militant outfits have been indulging in terrorist violence from time to time, mercilessly killing innocent people, including women and children. These outfits are also indulging themselves in extortion activities and abduction of people for ransom, Minister of State (MoS) for Home Affairs Kiren Rijiju said in a Lok Sabha (lower house of India’s parliament) reply to a question by State’s Member of Parliament (MP) Bijoya Chakravarty.

As many as nine North East militant groups, including Independent faction of United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA-I) and IK Songbijit faction of National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB-IKS) have formed a joint front, reports The Sentinel on April 23. At least three rounds of meetings were held among representatives of the outfits at undisclosed locations in Sagaing division of Myanmar over the last one month after which the joint front christened as the United National Liberation Front of West South East Asia (UNLFW) was floated. SS Khaplang the ‘chairman’ of Khaplang faction of National Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN-K) has been selected as the ‘chief’ of the ‘united front’. There are conflicting reports as to the status of Paresh Baruah of ULFA-I . Some sources said he was ‘commander in chief’ and others reports that he is ‘vice-chairman’. Sources state that the move to form the joint front is a step further towards forming a government-in-exile, reportedly to be based in Myanmar. A committee has been also formed to draft the constitution of the joint front. An Intelligence Bureau (IB) official stated that the outfits, especially NSCN-K is close to Kachin rebels – including Kachin Independence Army (KIA) - who provide various logistics and weapons support. It is difficult to believe that there is no Chinese backing”. The move to form a joint front by rebel groups has been in the offing since 2011. Coordination Committee (CorCom), an umbrella of six outfits is also a part of the ‘joint front’.

IK Songbijit faction of National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB-IKS), removed its 'president' Songbijit Ingti Kathar a few days ago and elevated its ‘interim general secretary’ B Saoraigwra to the top post, reports Times of India on April 25. A Karbi by ethnicity, Songbijit is reportedly holed up in Myanmar. He was sidelined when the outfit took the decision to massacre the Adivasis. The heinous crime was executed under the direction of G Bidai, ‘deputy chief’ of the outfit's ‘armed wing’."About four days ago, we received information that Songbijit has been removed from the post of the outfit's chairman and made its advisor. B Saoraigwra is the new chairman of the outfit," a source told the newspaper."Since the December 23, 2014 massacre of 69 Adivasis, NDFB-IKS has been facing problems. Since Songbijit is a Karbi, the problems have multiplied. There is no split in the outfit as such," a security source added.
