PRO of the AR, Kohima alleged that through "various
intelligence inputs" NSCN-K, ULFA-I and KLO are "carrying out
opium cultivation and trade in Kachin Province of Myanmar". An
AR press release alleged that NSCN-K cadres are "into cultivation
and transportation of opium, but the same has been consistently
denied by Khaplang." Based on a recent picture "uploaded" on social
media by a senior leader of NSCN-K group and Finance in-charge
of Nagaland "with poppy cultivation in the background," the PRO
said that this "substantiates the claim made by various intelligence
agencies that NSCN (K) is thriving on drug trafficking and opium
trade."

A reported plan drawn up by the ULFA-I led by
Paresh Barua and other rebel groups, which are part of the ULFWSA,
to carry out strikes in the North East has set alarm bells ringing
in security circles across the region, Information about the plan
has reportedly been gathered by intelligence agencies in eastern
Arunachal Pradesh, where two major rebel groups - the ULFA-I and
NSCN-K - have been very active for several years now. According
to the agencies, outfits under the front have been assigned specific
tasks. These tasks range from targeting SFs, carrying out subversive
activities and abducting Hindi-speaking businessmen, said sources.
The intelligence report, which is learnt to have
come from a Central agency, has said that while NSCN-K and ULFA-I
would target SFs in eastern Arunachal Pradesh where India, China
and Myanmar meet, PLA, ULFA-I and NSCN-K would carry out similar
strikes on SFs close to the India-Myanmar boundary in Manipur.
Likewise, ULFA-I, I.K. NDFB-IKS, GNLA and KLO have been assigned
the task of targeting SFs close to the India-Bangladesh border
in Meghalaya, while ULFA-I and NDFB-IKS would carry out similar
strikes close to the India-Bhutan border in western Assam. Assam
Police confirmed having received similar inputs.
