Achik National Volunteer Council (ANVC), currently under a truce with the Government of India, has now asked for its arms, which they had deposited at the time of the ceasefire in 2004, back for “protection” from the GNLA. The outfit wrote a letter to state Home Minister HDR Lyngdoh asking for the arms following killing of a mentally deranged person by suspected GNLA cadres near an ANVC designated camp at Williamnagar in East Garo Hills District recently. The ANVC has around 16 arms, including AK series rifles and pistols, deposited in a locked armoury in custody of Tura Police. The outfit has also asserted that the GNLA is working with the ISI of Pakistan. The ANVC demanding for a Garoland Autonomous Council had entered into a tripartite ceasefire with the Central and the State governments on July 23, 2004.

Dispelling all claims about his arrest at the hands of Bangladeshi security agencies, the “chairman” of GNLA, Champion R. Sangma alias Pakchara, announced that he remains a free man and accused the State Police, in tandem with Central agencies, of making deliberate attempt to feed false information on him, reports Shillong Times. This is with regard to the conflicting reports taking place in the last few days about the possibility of the “Chairman” being taken into custody by security agencies in neighbouring Bangladesh.

Assam Tribune reports that Security Forces (SFs) neutralised a camp belonging to the Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA) at Nengmandalgre, eight kilometres from Williamnagar town in East Garo Hills District, on July 8 even as the militants fired on the raiding party in a bid to protect their jungle shelter. No casualties were reported. Police sources revealed that the camp was set up at the behest of GNLA ‘commander-in-chief’ Sohan D Shira who regularly visited the camp. The camp was also giving shelter to GNLA’s West Khasi Hills ‘area commander’ Savio Marak who recently arrived in the area with his cadres ostensibly for a briefing by Sohan D Shira.

Sentinel reports that documents and explosive material recovered by the Police from the Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA) transit camp in Nengmalgre forest, East Garo Hills District have revealed links between the GNLA and United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA). GNLA ‘military chief’ Sohan D Shira, along with 12 armed cadres of his outfit and three ULFA militants, left behind 2 kg of explosive material and a number of incriminating documents while fleeing from the transit camp during an encounter with the police on July 8. Apart from Shira, GNLA ‘area commander’s Savio Marak and Rakstar Sangma and other militants were taking shelter in the camp. The police overran the transit camp after over half-an-hour gun battle. Though the militants managed to escape, the recovery of explosives and incriminating documents unveiled GNLA-ULFA links. The three ULFA men in question are said to be associates of Anti-Talks Faction (ATF) ULFA leader Dristi Rajkhowa. Dristi Rajkhowa is functioning from the Resubelpara, Goalpara and Kamrup areas of Assam in order to maintain the outfit’s links with the GNLA and to use the Garo Hills belt as a transit route to Bangladesh.

India's elite Combat Battalion for Resolute Action (CoBRA) commandos will soon be deployed in Western Meghalaya to counter the growing threat from GNLA militants, police said on July 10, reports Mangalorean. "Five companies of Border Security Force (BSF) and two units of CoBRA commandos would be deployed in Garo Hills to help us in our ongoing combing operations against GNLA," S.K. Jain, the intelligence chief of Meghalaya Police said. The CoBRA commandos - the special force raised to tackle Maoist insurgency in India - will counter the growing GNLA activities in East and South Garo Hills Districts, considered to be GNLA's heartland. Presently, 500 Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) troopers are assisting the Meghalaya Police and its Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) commandos to tackle the GNLA. More than 10 people, including security personnel, have been killed in the Garo Hills during the last one year by GNLA rebels. Earlier, on July 7 Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram assured Meghalaya Chief Minister Mukul Sangma of all necessary assistance to tackle militancy in the state, reports Newsone.

Shillong Times reports that, in what can be an indication of intensified rivalry between two militant outfits of Garo Hills, the Achik National Volunteer Council (ANVC) has accused the Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA) of trying to poach its cadres by offering up to INR 3 Million. “The GNLA tried to buy our cadres with offers up to Rs 30 lakh,” ANVC spokesperson Torik Jangning Marak said in a statement on July 14 (today). The outfit also alleged that GNLA cadres are assuming names (alias) similar to ANVC leaders. The ANVC, currently under ceasefire with the Government, had alleged that the GNLA is in cahoots with the National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB) and the United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA). The GNLA had also cautioned the State Government not to entertain the ANVC’s appeal to allow its cadres to carry weapons “to protect themselves from the GNLA”.

The deployment of two Commando Battalion for Resolute Action (COBRA) units of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) and five companies of specially trained Border Security Forces (BSF) personnel to assist the State Police in Garo hills explained the gravity of the subversive activities being carried by the GNLA, states Sentinel. Admitting that the GNLA activities have increased in recent months, a senior Police official involved in monitoring the Police operations, however, rubbished the notion that the State police had failed to curb the activities of the militant outfit. “In the type of situation that we are involved, there were occasions that we were down, but overall success rate should be appreciated,” stated the Police official. He said that seven GNLA camps had been busted in the past six months. He said that this was no ordinary achievement.

Sentinel reports that two Combat Battalion against Resolute Action (CoBRA) units of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) and five companies of the specially trained Border Security forces (BSF) have been trifurcated, and a group each will be based in each of the three District Head Quarters (HQs) of Garo Hills. Disclosing this, a senior Police official said, “A thorough briefing was given to the newly inducted personnel, particularly on the topography of Meghalaya, strength of the GLNA, its weakness and tactics. Though the Special Forces will be based in Tura, Williamnagar and Baghmara, their area of operations will stretch up to West Khasi Hills District.”

Sentinel reports that Security Forces (SFs) were put on high alert in Meghalaya on July 17 after Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA) militants threatened to carry out serial blasts across the State. The militants said they would bomb crowded places like Bara Bazaar and Police Bazaar in Shillong, East Khasi Hills, Tura market in West Garo Hills and other places if the Government did not withdraw Central forces from Garo Hills by July 18. GNLA’s threat came after two units of Combat Battalion against Resolute Action (CoBRA) and five companies of Border Security Force (BSF) troopers were deployed in the Garo Hills region. “If the operations against the GNLA are not stopped by Monday, the organisation will go for serial blasts in Meghalaya,’’ GNLA ‘commander-in-chief’ Sohan D Shira reportedly said from an undisclosed location, adds Assam Tribune.

Achik National Volunteer Council (ANVC), a militant outfit under ceasefire, said in a press release issued on July 18 that if the GNLA was aware of what ANVC was capable of, then it would be best for it not to attempt anything that would harm the people of Meghalaya, the Garos in particular, reports Sentinel. “If the GNLA is seriously talking about the Garoland issue and the Achik’s cause, they should lay down arms and surrender instead of causing tremendous hardship to the people of Garo Hills. The NDFB and the ULFA should leave Garo Hills immediately as it has been proved that the NDFB was involved in the killing of three policemen at Medipathar and the killing at Williamnagar. It has also been proved that the ULFA was involved in the killing of five coal labourers at Goka,” the press release said. The ANVC said the GNLA should stop this practice of “authorizing killing of own brethren by outsiders”.

Cadres of GNLA have reportedly been compelled to move to safer places after fresh operations were launched by Meghalaya Police together with the elite Combat Battalion for Resolute Action (Cobra) commandos and Border Security Forces (BSF) personnel to flush out the militants from Garo hills. Police sources on July 18 said there has been heavy movement of GNLA militants along the Durama hill range in Garo hills. The range is a tripartite junction connecting the three districts of Garo Hills — West, East and South Garo Hills.
