'Intensive security operations pushing rebels to Myanmar, B'desh'
Times of India | Oct 20, 2011, 01.32 PM IST, Imphal:
Manipur Governor Gurbachan Jagat said on Wednesday that activities of severa lmilitant groups in the valley areas of the state have been checked to a great extent by intensified counter-insurgency operations.
Similarly in the hill districts, the area domination by security forces and police compelled the 'underground elements', specially the 'valley outfits', to seek refuge in neighbouring countries like Myanmar and Bangladesh, apart from taking shelter in other states of the country, the Governor added.
"However, the overall security scenario, though improving, is still a matter of concern as the general population continues to remain under constant threat from various militant groups," he said.
"We have to focus on these evil activities and ensure that the underground and active militant outfits, responsible for these threats, are exposed and broken down," he added.
Commenting on the strength of Manipur police, Jagat said the strength has increased from 15,414 in January 2008 to 24,618 by January 2011.
