In the aftermath of the April 19 incident near Hebron involving the 29 Assam Rifles (AR) and NSCN-IM, both appear to be at loggerheads again when on May 9, 32 AR reportedly surrounded around 40 NSCN-IM cadres stationed at Kejanglwa village under Jalukie sub-division in Peren District. According to sources, NSCN-IM cadres in the night of May 8 reached Kejanglwa village and were stationed there when 32 AR got wind of it and marched to the village and surrounded it. On April 19, five AR jawans were ‘held’ by NSCN-IM and weapons ‘seized’ leading to counter action by the AR which erected Modular Command Post System (MCPS) on roads leading to NSCN-IM designated camps in Nagaland and Manipur.

Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi said that the Maoists were spreading their wings and have set up a strong base in the Districts of upper Assam, reports The Sentinel. Gogoi added that the militant groups of the region supported them. "ULFA c-in-c Paresh Baruah's letter to the media yesterday proves this. The NSCN-IM [Nationalist Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak Muivah] is also imparting training to the Maoist cadres," he said, adding that the training is given in some places outside Assam "by taking advantage of the ceasefire agreement" with the Centre. "We will have to conduct operations not only in Assam but also in neighboring States like Arunachal Pradesh. I am supporting the NCTC because it will help us in this regard," said Gogoi. "Earlier, the Centre had refused to believe us. Now they know that Assam is also affected by the Maoist menace. Given the fast manner in which it is spreading across the Northeast, I need the support of our neighboring States to control the Maoist movement now," the Chief Minister said.

Government of India (GoI) in a move to bring about “final settlement” to the protracted Naga political issue, said it was ready to engage all three Naga militant groups— National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM), NSCN-Khaplang (NSCN-K) and NSCN-Khole-Kitovi for peace talks. Confirming this, joint secretary (North East) Ministry of Home Affairs, Shambu Singh said that “eventually all three factions of the NSCN would be invited for peace talks before any final settlement is reached.” Keeping this in view the GoI, in principle has also agreed to hold dialogues with the NSCN-Khole-Kitovi faction which was keen to find out a settlement within the boundary of Nagaland. Meanwhile, the Sixty sixth meeting of cease fire monitoring group (CFMG) between CFMG and NSCN-IM cease fire monitoring cell (CFMC) members was held at Police complex Chumukedima in Dimapur on May 11. Talking with Nagaland Post after the meeting, CFMG chairman Major General (Retd) N.

On the issue of law and order problems in Tirap and Changlang Districts that shares a border with Nagaland and Myanmar, UHM said that steps had already been initiated to upgrade police infrastructure and recruit more police personnel. He added that more Central Reserve Police Forces (CRPF) personnel were being deployed to maintain the law and order in the two Districts. “A total of 1,526 policemen have been newly recruited in the state and they will start training from July this year. About 400 police personnel have been promoted and the process is on to recruit more personnel. Similarly, other steps for modernization of the police force are also on,” he said. On factional fighting among the Nationalist Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN) factions in Tirap and Changlang Districts, Chidambaram said the State Government and Police had been instructed to take firm action against the Khaplang faction of NSCN (NSCN-K) and Isak-Muivah faction of NSCN (NSCN-I-M) if they were found violating the law within State’s boundaries, as the State had no ceasefire agreement with the NSCN factions.

National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM) accused the NSCN-Khole-Kitovi of “attempting to sabotage” its 14 years of negotiations with the Government of India (GoI) by seeking “political settlement within the boundary of the so-called Nagaland state”, the NSCN-Khole-Kitovi on May 15 responded to clarify “certain misgivings” from NSCN-IM. In a statement, Alezo Venuh, leader of NSCN-Khole-Kitovi pointed out that since the formation of the Forum for Naga Reconciliation (FNR) in 2008, NSCN-Khole-Kitovi was “very vocal” that a meaningful reconciliation among Nagas would not be forthcoming as long as NSCN-IM leadership “believed in having reconciliation process and political negotiations running parallel to each other.” Asserting that reconciliation process included all sections of Nagas, Venuh asserted that one could not say the same about the negotiations between GoI and NSCN-IM “because Nagas are still in the dark about the core demands and the progress or lack of it.” Affirming its position on the question of the word “Nagaland”, he said the word “Nagaland” encompassed “all Naga lands” irrespective of national or international boundary demarcations.

“The scheduled meeting at Chiang Mai has been postponed because of certain unavoidable reasons,” a highly informed source informed late night on May 19. It was not clear as to whether the decision of the National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM) not to attend the May 21 Chiangmai meeting had led to factors that have now virtually made it impossible to hold the meeting convened by the Forum for Naga Reconciliation (FNR).

The NSCN-IM has reminded New Delhi on May 20 not to toy around with the ongoing dialogue with the Naga outfit, reports The Sangai Express. The NSCN-IM also urged the GoI that all its official statements will be only from the Prime Minister, the Union Home Minister or the government of India’s Chief Interlocutor. This statement of the NSCN-IM came after Shambhu Singh’s (joint secretary in the Ministry of Home Affairs incharge of North East region) statement appeared in the media saying, “If we don’t take all three factions into account, no kind of agreement is going to succeed. It will be a futile exercise to reach an agreement with one group”.

National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM) pulling out of the reconciliation meeting Chiang Mai in Thailand, Forum for Naga Reconciliation (FNR) has reminded all Naga rebel groups that difference among them must be resolved. The meeting, scheduled for May 21, was convened "to hammer out our (Naga) political differences" and FNR was requested to prepare logistical arrangements. FNR members have reached Chiang Mai and are now waiting for Naga rebel groups, including the NSCN-IM to hold the meeting. It said that over the last four years, FNR's involvement in the reconciliation process indicated that the divisions among the Naga people are not "factional" but the real divisions in Naga society are between those who support the reconciliation process and those who are opposed to it.

The Government of India (GoI) will first hammer out a solution with the National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM) and then bring other Naga groups into the loop. Sources revealed this on a day (May 21) when the NSCN-IM strongly opposed Delhi’s decision to begin talks with rival groups —NSCN- Khole-Kitovi and NSCN-Khaplang. The sources said according to the Government the best option is to work out a solution with the group with which over 80 rounds of talks have been held since 1997 and then bring other groups in the loop. The Government’s stand is unchanged that the solution will be within the framework of the Constitution.

NSCN-Khaplang (NSCN-K), on May 22, said postponement of the proposed May 21 Chiang Mai meet and “contradictory statements” by NSCN-Khole-Kitovi was confusing the Nagas with the latest “controversial press statement”, published in local dailies May 16, by Alezo Venuh, envoy of collective leadership, NSCN-Khole-Kitovi, reports Nagaland Post. They said, the confusing statement by Alezo, claming their stand for Naga solution as that for entire Naga inhabited areas encompassing all Nagas within and outside including international boundaries, was to be “viewed seriously as Kitovi and Alezo are trying to confuse the Nagas and take them for a ride.” NSCN-K said during many meetings of three groups – NSCN-IM, NSCN-Khole-Kitovi and Naga national Council (NNC), Kitovi had “categorically stated time and again” that his group stood for the Nagas of Nagaland only.

Despite the absence of top National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak Muivah (NSCN-IM) leaders, the Forum for Naga Reconciliation (FNR) held its meeting for reconciling rival Naga groups in Chiang Mai, Thailand, on May 26. NSCN-Khole-Kiotovi ‘chairman’ Khole Konyak and ‘general secretary’ Kitovi Zhimomi, Naga national Council (NNC) ‘president’ Singnya and ‘vice president’ Zhopra Vero attended the meeting. The meeting, convened "to hammer out Naga political differences", was FNR's attempt to create a space to constructively address all misunderstandings between various groups and bring rebel leaders to transcend factional interest for the Naga future. NSCN and NNC leaders said it would not be appropriate in the absence of the NSCN-IM to take any decision affecting the future of the Nagas which must be rooted in the historical and political rights of the Nagas "established by the leaders of the Naga political movements." They added that they were committed to seeking reconciliation for the greater cause of Nagas. The leaders jointly echoed that another meeting with top leaders of all the groups will be convened at the earliest as the differences need to be sorted out face to face. FNR said, "Since we are faced with numerous problems, we are trying to resolve them through collective understanding, for which we have been undertaking this "journey of common hope."
