Insurgencies & India's Northeast

  • NEW DELHI: It's India's only region that has a dedicated ministry to look after its development needs. That's because the Northeast largely remained out of focus as policy makers at the Centre seemed out of sync with public aspirations and ground realities in the decades that followed India's Independence. That led to a sense of alienation, not all of it was perceived though, among the population. Pent-up frustration and anger gave rise to a spate of insurgencies, as StratNews Global Editor-in-Chief Nitin A. Gokhale describes in this episode of 'Simply Nitin'.

    As a person from the northeast, I think this is a fair and accurate recap. Much wrong was done by Delhi to the people of our region and things are still not as good as they should be but huge strides have been made. India must treat the Northeast as the gateway to South East Asia and give heavy emphasis to the India-Thailand highway, even extending railways to Thailand and beyond. If we don't do it, China soon will. India has never missed an opportunity to miss an opportunity. That is the sad truth.

    As a Guwahati resident, insurgency is something I saw and witnessed on everyday basis. But now it's quite calm and peaceful and no resentment or sentimental issues pertaining in the society.

      @Gaurav Khanna calm may be skin deep but NE people have understood that violence won't take them to any fruitful conclusion it will lead to only bloodbath on the streets. Better sense prevailed and people started looking for personal growth and development. There's no point in fighting and vandalising on the streets. This isn't kashmir remember.

      @Gaurav Khanna Afghans? Are you saying we are like Taliban with an AK47 in everyone's hand and planting IED everywhere on security posts? This is an educated state and ranks higher than many states in terms of GDP per capita. This comparison with Afghanistan is bogus.

    Fascinating episode! I would have never imagined requesting for this information. Importantly, Nitin brought to the table a very different perspective on India's North East; a region that remains to date, out of sight for most of the media. And why just the media; even the Judiciary transfers judges to the High Courts in the North East as a disciplinary action! So, Thanks a lot, Nitin!!

    Nitin ji, You missed the insurgency in Arunachal Pradesh. Particulary, eastern Arunachal, called Arunachal Dragon Force, or ADF. Although it was only for a brief part till it was wiped out in 2003-2007 time, by Major Chauhan ( a 5.3 ft guy with handlebar mustache). During earlier army ops, villagers both young and old were harrassed, tied and beaten, made to stand naked in the sun for hours and hours, and multiple cases of human rights violations happened in a large scale. A teacher was forced to chew stones by then Army personnels. You can search it under Operation Bajrang, in the 90s. I can even name that particular army officer during this violations!!

    Unlike the other insurgencies which arose due to neglect of the government of 🇮🇳, the Naga insurgents wanted a separate Christian nation called Nagalim, something he never mentioned.

      @Gaurav Khanna bro!!your intention was good but you lacked in vital information. Pakistan always started the conflict with india and I am sorry to say but there will be no friendly relations between these two nations.
      Pakistan has become a cat's paw of chinese and going to be fully radicalized in next 20 years.
      So what India can do .
      1. Economy
      2. Integrated command
      3. Foreign diplomacy
      4. Allies .

      Manipur alone have 30 insurgency groups. And for your kind information majority of the insurgency groups belong to the Meitei community who are Hindus. PLA (People's Liberation Army, Manipur), PREPAK etc which are the largest groups in Manipur are all Hindu insurgency groups who want independence from India.
