As the tenure of current Government draws to a close, there is no progress on negotiations for a peace accord with Naga armed groups, with talks stuck for almost a year due to an intransigent position taken by the Naga side on ‘symbolic’ issues, such as a separate flag, reports Indian Express on January 7. According to reports, ‘substantive’ issues had been resolved between the two sides and a draft agreement was ‘almost ready’ by then. But a change in Naga position has led to apprehensions that any gains made since 2014 will be lost with a change in political dispensation at the Centre. According to sources, the current logjam is largely due to the Church, which has taken a lead role in articulating the Naga political position in the past year. The Church has argued that symbols are integral to the identity of the Nagas, and that Naga identity would not be safe without them.It is politically unviable for the Centre to accept demands such as a separate Naga flag, even though, sources said, it has agreed to guarantee protection of the Naga identity. But if these changes can be brought later through a democratic political process, the Centre would have no objection, sources explained. At a Church-organised meeting held in Dimapur on September 8 2018, Naga civil society groups and political groups had issued a statement called the ‘Declaration of the Naga Collective Spirit’. It said that “the historical fact that the Naga struggle started before India’s independence strengthens our moral authority” and argued that “the Naga people did not violate any agreement for union made with any nation in our history. This establishes the legitimacy and integrity of Naga rights”.In what is seen as a repudiation of the argument that Nagas have to be realistic about being a part of India, the declaration noted: “We draw inspiration from Confucius who reminds us that, ‘When it is obvious that goals cannot be achieved, don’t adjust the goals, but adjust the steps’.”Naga National Political Groups (NNPGs), comprising representatives of six influential Naga rebel groups and the National Socialist Council of Nagaland (Isak-Muivah) or NSCN-IM, had met interlocutors of the Central government last month, and another meeting is scheduled in Delhi this month. But neither side is hopeful of a breakthrough, in light of the political narrative being articulated in Nagaland. The Centre had agreed to find a solution on the basis of mutually agreed sovereignty rights, which would take the unique history of Nagas into account, adds Indian Express. Among the substantive issues agreed upon by the two sides was creation of a cultural council for all the Nagas, removal of Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA), enhancing political representation of Nagas in Parliament, creation of a bicameral state legislature, autonomous council for Naga-majority areas in Manipur and Arunachal Pradesh and major economic packages for the state of Nagaland. Some of these changes would have been effected through amendments to the Constitution.

Khango Konyak-led faction of National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Khaplang (NSCN-K), a Naga insurgent outfit, has agreed to join the peace talks with the Government of India (GoI), Hindustan Times on January 11. The faction is likely to join the Working Committee (WC) of the six Naga National Political Groups (NNPG) which is in talks withGoI. According to ThejaTherieh, spokesperson of the Nagaland Tribes Council, Yes, the Khango Konyak led faction has agreed to join the peace talks. ShikutoZalipu, the General Secretary of Nagaland Gaon Bura Federation also added that Isak Sumi has given the green signal to join the NNPGs. Nagaland Gaon BuraFederation( Nagaland village elders federation) has been talking to the Konyak-led group since Khango Konyak was impeached as ‘chairman’ of NSCN(K) in August 2018 and given a safe passage to return to Nagaland from Myanmar. Zalipu stated that ‘The group wanted to retain its entity in the talks. They could either merge with the NSCN(I-M) or join the NNPGs. Since the Government of India has said no to talks with any third party the only option to enter talks while retaining their entity is to join NNPGs’.

The Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) has involved the National Investigation Agency (NIA) to probe links between Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) groups and militant outfits in the Northeast, particularly from Nagaland, which are active in Myanmar, in the seizure of Myanmar-made assault rifles and grenades from a location in Purnia in Bihar on February 7, reports The Indian Express on March 24.Reportedly, on February 7, Bihar Police had seized under barrel grenade launchers (UBGL) and a large number of AK-47 assault rifles found hidden in an SUV seized in Purnia, UMHA officialssaid. According to UMHA officials, the probe has revealed so far that arms and ammunition were smuggled from across the Myanmar border with the help of “Naga underground groups” and these were “meant to be supplied to Maoists across the country”.An UMHA official said,“Maoists have tried to seek help from Northeast militants’ groups earlier as well, particularly due to crackdown by security forces. They are looking for safe havens in the Northeast and other parts of the country”.Bihar Police had last month arrested three persons, identified as V R Kahornagam and Clearson Kavo from Ukhrul District in Manipur and Suraj Prasad from GorakhpurDistrict of Uttar Pradesh. The three were questioned by NIA officials about the main arms supplier. They were also shown photographs of Maoist ‘commanders’ and top leadership active in Bihar and Jharkhand. A man identified as Mukesh Singh,reportedly on the run, from Patna in Bihar is suspected to be the key link between arms suppliers and Maoists groups, the UMHA official said. The two Ukhrul-based arms smugglers, according to investigators, have direct links with a Northeastern insurgent group and have been involved in an arms smuggling racket in the Northeast.According to UMHA, the arrested suppliers have been booked under sections of the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA), and the case will be probed by the NIA.

Government officials stated that over the years, there have been instances of Chinese agencies directly or indirectly providing assistance to militant groups of the Northeast, reports Assam Tribune on March 30. Officials stated that ‘The possibility of Chinese agencies trying to influence the Northeast-based militants to create disturbance during the polls cannot be ruled out, but such groups have very limited capability after their camps were destroyed by Myanmar Army’. Sources further pointed out that though India has cordial relations with Bangladesh, the possibility of the anti-India forces, which have bases in that country, trying to create trouble during the polls cannot be ruled out and that is why, the security of India-Bangladesh border cannot be overlooked. Terrorist outfits like Jamaat-ul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB), Neo JMB, which has links with the Islamic State, Ansarullah Bangla Team (ABT) are still active in Bangladesh and they may try to sneak into India to create trouble during the polls.

According to Government sources, Myanmar Government has informed India about its plan of deploying Army personnel in the areas along the international border for a long period of time, if required, to flush out the militants, reports Assam Tribune on May 19. A source stated that ‘The Government of India has been informed that Myanmar Army personnel have been directed to stay in that area for four to five months, if required, to ensure that members of the militant groups are driven out of the country’. According to sources, members of the militant groups of North East were staying in Myanmar with the help National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Khaplang (NSCN-K). Myanmar Army reportedly agreed to allow NSCN-K members to stay in Myanmar in a separate place with the condition that the outfit would not allow any member of other militant groups to stay there, sources added. The Government of Myanmar has also been putting pressure on the NSCN-K to sign the national ceasefire agreement signed by a number of other Myanmar-based militant groups. Sources revealed that though members of other militant outfits are staying in jungles and Naga inhabited villages in Myanmar, Myanmar is attempting to trace them out, adds Assam Tribune. Myanmar has assured India that all out efforts would be made to flush out all the members of the militant groups. Sources also pointed out that it would not be possible for the militants to stay in dense forests because of logistical problems and they would have to stay closer to human habitation. In such circumstances, it would be easier for the Myanmar Army to launch the operation. Moreover, though China has signed an agreement with India to ensure cooperation in dealing with terrorism, Beijing has not yet accepted the fact that Paresh Baruah mostly stays in China, reports Assam Tribune on May 19. Sources stated that “The Indian agencies have submitted details of the addresses where Paresh Baruah (of ULFA-I) has been staying in China, but so far, the government of that country has been denying the fact.”

Arunachal Pradesh, Assam and Manipur are on edge with the “deadline” for settling the Naga political issue drawing near, reports The Sangai Express on October 25. The Governments and civil society organisations in Arunachal Pradesh, Assam and Manipur have made it clear that they would not compromise on their territorial integrity. Though the contents of the Framework Agreement signed with NSCN-IM in August 2015 are not known, Nagaland’s neighbours have been wary of the outfit’s demand for ‘nagalim’ or ‘greater Nagaland’. This would entail redrawing of boundaries to bring all Naga-inhabited areas in the North East under one administrative umbrella. There have been indications that the NSCN-IM has dropped this demand, but its insistence on a separate “Naga National flag” and “Naga Yezabo (Constitution)” has raised fears about a Nagalim-like arrangement in some form or the other. The map of Nagalim, released by NSCN-IM a few years ago, spreads over 1,03,473 square kilometeres beyond the 16,527 square kilometre area of Nagaland. It includes the Anjaw, Changlang, Lohit, Longding, Namsai and Tirap Districts of Arunachal Pradesh; Dima Hasao and Karbi Anglong Districts and parts of Dibrugarh, Golaghat, Jorhat, Sivasagar and Tinsukia Districts in Assam; and Chandel, Kamjong, Kangpokpi, Senapati, Tamenglong, Tengnoupal and Ukhrul Districts of Manipur.

Inspector General of Police (Intelligence), the Dimapur Commissioner of Police and all Superintendent of Police (SP) have been directed to take preventive measures in view of reports of mobilisation by National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM), reports Assam Tribune on October 26. According to sources, many top NSCN-IM leaders feel that the outcome of the ongoing peace talks may not be according to demands of outfit. According to Police, NSCN-IM has instructed its ‘officers’, especially JC ‘battalion’ (Kiphire) and the Yenbemo ‘battalion’ (Tuensang) to safeguard the arms and ammunition available with them and shift them to villages adjacent to these camps. Moreover, inputs also indicate shifting of weapons housed with the senior leadership residing in Dimapur. Separate inputs further suggest that on the directives of the top echelons of the NSCN-IM, the outfit has started mobilising their cadres at strategic locations in Dimapur, Zunheboto and other areas of Nagaland.
