Government and media houses can say all they want and wish, but social media posts and videos are enough to show the Kuki-Chin militants operating in the Kuki-dominated hill areas of Manipur with no fear of central and state forces.
National media, army and Assam rifles continue to pressure the state government to take steps while their area of control is left like a wild west for a terror rust. The latest example is the brutal cold-blooded killing of two teens who went missing since early July. The blockade imposed by Assam Rifles is not allowing the state forces to conduct investigations and operations to rescue or now find the missing bodies, yet the central forces seem to be okay with just letting the case slip under the earth.
Her terrified, innocent look will haunt all of us, and can't simply look at this video. It's been months, and CBI can't even find a lead. If this photo wasn't leaked, nobody would have talked about the missing. It seemed like everybody had forgotten about it, and the investigating agencies were also silent, at least no update to the public.
What is so powerful in Churachandpur that the mighty Indian army, so-called sentinels of North East, Assam Rifles, BSF, CRPF can not do anything? What is the SoO that is so strong that these forces won't act?
One can easily list out channels and hundreds of videos of Kuki militants openly violating SoO agreements and weapons carrying openly well outside SoO camps. Even in SoO camps, they are supposed to be kept locked in a double-key system.
Under which ground rule, the whole sacred Koubru Mountain is cover in a SoO campe where the Kuki Militants can roam freely with all weapons?
What a mockery and joke of an agreement it has been yet the subsequent governments, be it the Congress Raj and the BJP Raj are not willing to even talk about the violation of ground agreements.
A common citizen can only imagine the possible reasons as the government is silent on these issues. Any imagination expressed will be subdued, forced not to speak, and suppressed by using every tool available in the government.
Common citizens are not all fools as the government and central forces think of they are, one can easily identify the nature of weapons being seized, the nature of the operation being carried out and the failure of PR and hence the PR tours the ex-service members and current heads are doing around various media houses.
It's a humble request that your PR is intact all over India. People will keep supporting the nation's forces whatever you do as far as the overall India is concerned. You don't need a PR tour for it. There was no problem even when Manorama was raped and killed. What you need is to repair the trust crack that is rapidly expanding within the zone of conflict.
Stop blocking police gates by parking your vehicles, stop zero-angle firing at women protestors, and stop stopping state forces within its jurisdiction. Start confiscating real weapons, not some pipe bombs and guns from hill areas, enough evidence is there in social media with SoO militants roaming outside camps with weapons, some even got killed, one name is Bronson. Start taking action on these hardcore militants.
Stop facilitating illegal immigrants and wounded militants from Myanmar by letting them stay and handing them over to hospitals. You are there to guard the border not facilitating illegal immigrants and wounded militants.
Who will arrest those killers? At least in the valley, everyone helped find the culprits and the state police arrested those responsible. Does the Kuki as a community have the moral independence to come forward and help arrest those responsible for the killing of the two missing persons?
