Insurgent & Secessionist movements in India

[karan.1970]

good that it's just a misleading headline. Alhamdulillah they were only injured.

i think enough terrorism and violence has afflicted the war-troubled region already; there seems to be a rise in attacks there --despite beefed up presence of your cprf

Maoists issue is more of a violent political problem instead of terrorism.. More like whats happening in Karachi

 

[Abu Zolfiqar]

to compare Karachi violence to Naxalite terrorism is beyond absurd....totally different problems, totally different background, totally different natures of dispute

Only spilled over a much larger landmass.

It's actually nothing more than a few deprived people who are misguided by some for their vested interests fighting the state.

Earlier they had some support in the common man's mind.

..but now that they have taken to arms against the state and started killing the same common man and beheading the poor policeman on the street, they have turned everyone against them.

...digging their own grave.

no matter how genuine your troubles, you never take up arms against the state.

That was these people's greatest mistake.

True.

Maoist insurgency will gradually die once these areas taste the fruits of India's economic development.

...can't say the same about Karachi's violence.

you're acting like it's a new story, they've been at war against the state for the past several years now

outbreaks in Karachi tend to be sporadic, whereas in 2011 there seems to be far more terrorist attacks in your country.....naxal, assamese / ULFA violence seems to have increased manifold in the past few months (near daily basis).

you should focus on your internal wars and insurrections, we can do the same in our country

i'm glad you at least realize that comparing Karachi to Naxal belt is a ridiculous thing

Yes.

Only that now that the corporates are heading there (the region's rich in natural resources and minerals BTW), the thing has started getting some attention.

With attention is coming the realisation that certain basic level of development needs to be there at least.

The work has started.

As the people see that finally the state has woken up to their woes, they will lay down the arms.

Development will deprive them of the very oxygen that their movement thrives upon. It is but natural.

Okay. Looks like we need an analogy here.

Look at it like this.

Karachi is a smaller rectangle.

Maoist violence in India is the similar Karachi rectangle ten times in magnitude.

The shape remains the same. Only the size of the rectangle has changed.

BTW, ULFA is pretty much dead now, thanks to our Bangladeshi friends. Update yourself.

Sure, but the commonality being the political nature of both situations instead of secessionist nature as in Kashmir or Balochistan ...

One is in a metro sectarian struggle backdrop in Pakistan and the other based on non inclusive economic growth of India

I don`t know where you get your news from ,whatever you heard with regards to ulfa and Assam, is wrong.Contrary to what you have heard insurgency and violence is all time low in Northeast.most ulfa rebel have deserted their camps and want to negotiate with GOi and so do all other insurgent group in Assam. Nagaland is in ceasefire for decades now and it is highly unlikely that violnece will ever make a return.we are fed up of with it.So please keep your discussion limited to Naxal wadis only .Don`t drag my part of India into unnecessary arguments to bolster your point of view

Attack by rebels, jumbos Villagers on border flee homes

Jorhat, Oct. 29: Villagers fled from the Assam-Nagaland border after suspected Naga militants fired in the air for several hours near Janikpathar under Charaideo subdivision along the border in Sivasagar district last night.

Their trauma did not end there. “When we returned this morning, we found our houses were being damaged by wild elephants,” a villager said, when contacted over phone.

He said a large group of armed men started firing in the air near the village at around 9.30pm last night.

“Initially we thought it was the sound of crackers but when we went outside we could see armed men firing in the air and shouting at us to vacate our village,” the villager said.

The villagers immediately informed the forest department and the police.

The police arrived about two hours later. By then, most of the villagers had fled from the area.

A police officer at Sonari said the men from Nagaland fled as soon as the police arrived. “They crossed over to the other side of the border through Abhayapur reserve forest. It could not be ascertained whether the armed men were Naga militants or goons,” the official said.

The officer said the police party returned from the area late at night.

“When the villagers returned this morning, they found that several houses were damaged. There were clear signs that the damage has been caused by a herd of elephants. Probably the herd descended on the village after the police party left,” the officer said.

A Charaideo sub-divisional administration official said there are instances of people from across the border harassing villagers residing on the Assam side.

“The goons also looted cattle and poultry from the villagers. It could be a group who probably came on a looting spree but fled when the security forces arrived,” he said.

Last year, a gang abducted the village headman of Janakipathar, Madhu Munda.

He was rescued by security forces from Assam following a gun-battle in a camp inside Abhayapur reserve forest where Munda had been kept captive.

A forest official said that the miscreants from Nagaland also tried to fell trees at the Abhayapur reserve forest frequently. “Only a few months back, forest guards had engaged in a gun battle with a group of timber smugglers from across the border,” he said.
