    After Mizoram, Manipur provides help to Myanmar refugees

    Chief Minister of Manipur N. Biren Singh said on Wednesday that schools could be arranged for “refugees from Myanmar” by the state government, but since it was a bilateral issue, they were awaiting instructions from the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA).

    Mr. Singh said Hindu Many people from Manipur attempted to sneak into India from the Manipur border, but in view of the presence of a large number of security personnel. Manipur shares a 398 km border with Myanmar.

    More than a dozen foreign nationals, including Myanmar policemen and women, have fled neighboring Mizoram.

    “I have requested Home Minister Amit Shah to tell us what to do. If you ask me this is a humanitarian issue, but since it is a bilateral issue between India and Myanmar, I will have to talk to the Center, ”said Mr. Singh.

    Schools planned

    Asked if arrangements have been made to house the people fleeing Myanmar’s army, Mr. Singh said, “Schools etc. can be arranged, we are almost ready but waiting for directions.”

    He said, ‘We took vigil on the border and deployed additional security forces. He said that there has been no migration so far, but we are expecting many people to come here.

    The MHA has declined to comment on the future course of action relating to Myanmar’s refugees.

    The Government of Mizoram has also rejected the lack of instructions from the Center on this issue. MJoram’s Environment and Transport Minister TJ Lalantunglunga told Hindu On Tuesday, “There is no proper instruction from the Center, and it is not appropriate.” I am ready to help the people from the government on my own personal capacity and on humanitarian grounds. “

    Mizoram Chief Secretary Lalanmumawa Chuango flew to Delhi on Tuesday, although the Legislative Assembly session is going on. He is expected to meet senior officials of MHA.

    In an interview to the BBC, Myanmar police officers who fled across the border into Mizoram said that “they survived, they feared they would be forced to kill or harm civilians.”

  • ‘Executed’ by insurgents for kidnapping and killing Manipur rebel girl

    ‘Executed’ by insurgents for kidnapping and killing Manipur rebel girl

    Reports said that a Kangaroo court found him guilty of the kidnapping and murder of Luiningla Elizabeth, the eight-year-old daughter of Francis Ngajokpa, who was a cabinet minister.

    Local media reports said on Sunday that a rebel leader had been identified on March 2 by an insurgent rebel group.

    Police believe that the hanging took place in a foreign country. Reports said that the Kangaroo court found him guilty of the kidnapping and murder of Luingla Elizabeth, an eight-year-old student and daughter of Francis Njakopa, who was a cabinet minister.

    A Class III student was kidnapped from Imphal’s Little Flower School on November 4, 2003 by some armed persons. He could not be traced despite a great silence. On November 12, his body was found after stuffing it in a gunny bag.

    Eventually, Nando was arrested by a special team and sent to judicial custody. Later, he was placed in the security ward of JN Institute of Medical Sciences, Imphal, as he had a complaint of illness. On March 26, 2019, Nando escaped from the security ward. Authorities are yet to reconstruct the scene of how he survived despite the deployment of armed police guards.
