Slow NSCN (IM) talks 'notable setback': MHA
Times of India | TNN | Dec 3, 2011 ,Guwahati:
A ministry of home affairs (MHA) report has listed the slow progress in talks with the NSCN(IM), and persistence of violence in Manipur and the Bodo issue as 'notable setbacks' in the last three years from December 2008.
The MHA listing the slow progress of talks with the NSCN(IM) as a 'notable setback' comes weeks after reports of the NSCN(IM) talks coming to an end and an agreement to be signed granting Nagaland a special status that would give the state the right to set up administrative units in Naga-inhabited areas of Manipur, Assam and Arunachal Pradesh. The three states raised protests against this reported move by the Centre.
On the other hand, the 'notable pending matters' listed by the ministry include amendments to the Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act (Afspa); revised action plan to deal with emerging challenges from Left wing extremists; action plan for Tirap and Changlang districts of Arunachal Pradesh; policy on dealing with insurgent groups taking shelter in Myanmar.
