is as muchyours,
as it is ours!
Indias tryst with insurgency began in the north-east of the country, as many decades agoas the nation became independent. And it has continued to this day, in some form or theother. 7hinN of the north-east, and the rst thought is aOways that of troubOe, some sNirmish,
some agitation, or some YioOent act. 7he Indian pubOics perception of the north-east is ruOed by
an image of YioOent behaYiour, against each other, or the 8nion of India. 7his is indeed a mostunfortunate impression to carry on a daiOy basis. And an unfair burden imposed on the iOO-fatedpeopOes of that region.
:ith the beginnings of the 1aga rebeOOion in the earOy s, tiOO today, the region that wecommonOy cOub together as the north-east, the seYen sisters, has been in the grip of someinsurgency or the other. %ut for the arriYaO of peace in 0i]oram and 0eghaOayas off the waOOpoOiticaO arrangements, eYery state in the region continues to be absorbed by some insurgentgroup. As rightOy pointed out by authors, repeatedOy, insurgency in the north-east is YirtuaOOya cottage industry. It has become a dai Oy rituaO, for reasons that range from the ataYistic, to thereYoOutionary.+oweYer out of date both passions may be.
AOO te[tbooNs on insurgencies, Oow intensity wars, or subYersion, highOight some trans nationaOcommonaOities. A strong desire to preserYe cuOturaO continuity in a worOd that is homogenisingrapidOy. A feeOing of poOiticaO aOienation that enabOes the rousers to rabbOe the estranged. 2rit may be something as archaic as raOOying a cOan, a community, eYen a tribe, in the face ofperceiYed aggression from the other. 7hat these OabeOs are being used rather OiberaOOy here isdeOiberate. )or it is within these idioms that the c onYentionaO anaOysis of the north-east occurs.
It is in foOOowing the conYentionaO, howeYer, the*oYernment of India has erred, repeatedOy. 7heregion is seen through the prism set at an angOe directed by the cuOture seeping out of 5ed )ort,'eOhi. AOO causes of insurgency in the north-east are anaOysed by an outOooN that is directed byimagery and interests that couOd easiOy be OabeOOed as coOoniaO. 'eOhi treats the region with animperious attitude, doOing out grants at wiOO, cOobbering war Oords when they raise their headstoo high and induOging those that pOay the game according to the master. 7he roots of this crisis
Oie in a bureaucratic attitude that is based on being an imperiaO serYice, rather than serYing theOocaO needs and reTuirements.&oupOed with that is an Indian po OiticaO cOass OargeOy ignorant ofthe nuances and subtOeties of the regions socioOogy.
7his ignorance and the resuOtant pre-conceiYed notions, about the peopOes of the north-east,has aOOowed the growth of insurgencies sustained on the Oargesse of doOe. 7he whoOe enterprisenow e[ists on funds that come from 'eOhi aOmost as an aOOowance. India is funding its owninsurgencies and nothing couOd highOight nationaO ignorance more than this simpOe fact.
The power of a King l ies in his mighty arms
Security of the citizens at peace time is very importantbecause State is the only saviour of the men and womenwho get affected only because of the negligence of the State.

Volume 1 Issue 9 June 2010 +onour is an essentiaO feeOing for eYeryindiYiduaO or peopOe or region or nationfor a normaO and heaOthy disposition andgrowth. Anyone who is depriYed of this feeOing sOowOysinNs into the morass of disaffection, disiOOusionment,despair and destruction.
7he more the casuaOapproach of the centraOgoYernmentthe more the escaOation in insurgency, separatism andYioOence in the region. 7his has proYed to be the maMorreason for the deOay in the integration of the north-east region with the Indian mainstream. The honourof our north-eastern brothers and sisters has aOwaysbeen a matter of concern. In spite of huge funding anda dedicated ministry to OooN after the deYeOopment ofthe north-eastern region, we are unabOe to controO thesituation tiOO date.1ow it is spreading its tentacOes to
other parts of the country and disturbing the peaceand harmony which is an essentia O prereTuisite fordeYeOopment. 6uch is the situation in the homeOand of the 6eYen 6isters that the peopOe ofthe north-east haYe OiYed their OiYes oYer the past si[ decades without the feeOing of pridefor India or being Indian.
In more than years since the attainment of independence no goYernment has taNen aserious Yiew or e[hibited compOete commitment to deYeOopment of this region.1o matterwhat may be the compuOsions - poOiticaO or sociaO - but the fact is that these states stiOO haYeinadeTuate heaOth and education systems and no industriaOisation has been done so far ascompared to other parts of the country. :e aOO haYe seen the way the situation in -ammuand .ashmir has been aOOowed to simmer and deteriorate to new OeYeOs of aOienationbecoming too costOy to manage in terms of human OiYes to the detriment of peace andprosperity in the region. The same is being seen in aOO the 0aoist-affected states wherepeopOe are Oured into na[aOism by the promise of an aOternatiYe system that has not beendemonstrated to be more effectiYe in the areas under 0aoist controO.
:hether it is the north-east,-ammu and.ashmir or the na[aO-affected areas, the root causesof aOO such insurgency and terrorism and na[aO actiYites are now in fuOOYiew of the nationfor aOO of us to assess, anaOyse and seeN appropriate soOutions. The current situation is theresuOt of endemicaOOy poor faciOities for heaOth, education andMobs for the OocaO inhabitantsin these regions. The students haYe to migrate to educate themseOYes and parents arecompeOOed to OooN at far hori]ons for prosperity of their chiOdren and the Tuestion staresus in the face:hy cannot we proYide ampOe opportunities for education andMobs withinthe states" That wouOd be one way to ensure that the youth of the region are not Oured byvarious insurgent groups that have mushroomed over the years.
6peciaO attention needs to be paid to the many ethnicities that enrich the north-easterncorner of India. &ompeting ethnic groups have found in the funds made avaiOabOe by thecentre a Oucrative method of transforming insurgency into an industry based on e[tortion.A wise Indian statesman had once said that India is not a poor country, it is a nation ofpoor peopOe.
:hat are we waiting for"&an we aOOow inimicaO neighbours to taNe advantage of thesituation as3aNistan and&hina have done over the decades"1ew'eOhi must taNe steps toinstiO in the OocaO peopOe of each of the seven states a sense of benign governance instead ofpouring in enormous funds that appear to be ending up in the pockets of insurgent groups.
TeamDSA has speciaO feeOings for the north-eastern brothers and sisters and this speciaOissue on north-east is dedicated to the youth of the region. This is the second speciaO issuecovering various aspects of defence and security of Indian states. 2ur speciaO issue on-ammu and.ashmir in0ay was the rst such issue which got an overwheOming response.
We are sure that the efforts of TeamDSA for this issue wiOO aOso receive an encouragingresponse from our vaOuabOe readers. 2ur -uOy issue wiOO aOso be a speciaO on securitycovering aOO dimensions of security from the pubOic to the pedestrian and the private.3Oease reserve your copies.DSA is now avaiOabOe in more and more seOected outOets panIndia.2ur readers may procure their copies from the nearest outOets as mentioned on pagenumbers - of this issue or write to us directOy.

BANDITRY:
7he 1aga insurgency is the oldest in the north-east. It germinated from a seed
of separatism sown as in-ammu and .ashmir by a%ritish ofcial.7he ethnic
code rang similar chimes among tribes and groups in the rest of the Seven
Sisters and most ourished because of contiguity to neighbours inimical to
India. For long the Chittagong Hill tracts in the former east wing of Pakistan
and a %urma later Myanmar caught up in the vorte[ of its own instabilities
were sanctuaries. Over the years ideology has given way to banditry as a way
of life and good governance has become the crying need of the region.

Ma nipur:
Manipur is the anti-thesis of the Maoist situation where the demand
for deployment of the Indian Army and concomitant infrastructural
development is being presented as a solution. In Manipur, there are
two divisions of troops but whatever little development that has
taken place is in a state of decay. The politician-terrorist nexus has
to be cut and Muivah will have to be told in no uncertain terms that
Greater Nagalim inclusive of his native village is out of the question.

Most Meiteis have started asserting own nationalist psyche and gradually cutting
off the moorings with Hindu cultural and religious umbilical. They do no more like
to use Hindu surnames - Singh and Sharma. Hindu Vaishnavism can no longer
keep the Meitei society tied to the cultural apron of India Can an economist of
wider experience be posted in Manipur? Can Congress Party restrain its politicians
from bleeding the state by thieving and plundering?

him that it was his forward policy that invited Chinese retaliation has
been totally lost sight of. India was attacked before it was fully ready. Prime
Minister Manmohan Singh has taken the bull by the horns and is improving
the infrastructure all along the Himalayas. A bloody nose in Tibet will
negate all that the string of pearls was intended to achieve for the Chinese.

north-east POLY-ETHNIC CONUNDRUM
Sovereignty is an appealing prospect in the midst of a mass upsurge or a safe
haven to operate from. Both are currently absent in the Asom context. New
bargaining ploys are being fashioned and the possibilities and ambience
of negotiations being explored. The United Liberation Front of Asom is in
considerable disarray with the arrest of its top leadership in Bangladesh and
the loss of that particular safe haven. The Government of India seems to think
that to let a hundredowers bloom policy could create the garden of Eden.
Can there be peace without sovereignty? Depends on the level of battle fatigue
that circumstances have induced.

Pradip Phanjoubam
Ethnic Schism:Intrinsic Trepidity
Given the multiplicity of ethnic / tribal / hillmen
inuences that pervade the north-eastern region
of India there is need for great circumspection and
sensitivity in dealing with issues of statehood. The
incident of May is not therst instance of a disjoint
between the centre and the state. Blockade as a tool
of submission / compliance will only exacerbate the
problem.

north-east ESTRANGEMENT north-east DEADLY DEADLOCK
True, as of today, it does
seem Meiteis hold theidea of Manipur closer
to heart than most othercommunities. As to whythis has come to be so is
another story, needing adifferent treatment, butgiven this reality the fact
remains that the Meiteiswould be the ones to
most strongly resist whatthe liberal pretenderswant Manipur to do -
voluntarily disintegrate
Naga interlocutors no longer insist on a Greater Nagalim that includes parts
of Myanmar. Trying to appropriate parts of Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh and
Assam may help to keep the government of India off-balance but it will not
bring sovereignty nor territory beyond the connes of present-day Nagaland.
That T. Muivah failed to keep his tryst with his ancestral village in Manipur by
ofcial state diktat and public outrage underscores how intractable the issue is
even if the Nagas are eager to coalesce into a Greater Nagalim.

Harsh V. Pant
Every one of the steps taken by the Obama administration thus far are elements
of a larger facade to remove states that sponsor terror from the ambience of
NPT sanctions. Prominent among these is Pakistan which has the dubious
distinction of being both the fountainhead of global terrorism and one with
its military totally riddled with jihadis in uniform. In all respects the NPT
remains fatally awed for being inequitable. As far as India is concerned it
is China that has been supplying pre-tested, ready-to-use nuclear weapons
to states that also have extra-territorial agendas for which they use proxies.

India appears to be caught in a timewarp so far as national security isconcerned. Spending nearly half of Gross Domestic Product has notbrought the desired results for NATO nations, all of whomounderedin the recent crisis in the nancial sector. China stands out becauseits defence spending is futuristic not current. The Thirteenth FinanceCommission has tried to strike a balance between growth and securitybut its expectations of a private sector that is demanding 100 per centforeign direct investment (currently 26 per cent) could well be misplaced.Performance budgeting getting a bigger bang for the buck should bethe guiding principle instead our acquisition policy is badly skewed.

Chinas support for Pakistansclandestine activities is an open secret, as is the United Statesignoring it. All of these need to be deftly handled by India.
