Myanmar Army has moved closer to the border they share with India and have launched massive crackdown operation against North East insurgent groups including NSCN (K). As per the intelligence report submitted to the Ministry of Home Affairs(MHA), NSCN(K) is worried over the presence of Myanmar Army around its Central Headquarters at Taga.The insurgent group recently held a meeting with their Ceasefire Monitoring Committee and discussed Myanmar army threat to arrest their cadre and hand them over to Indian government.

As per report, Myanmar Army has restricted the movement of NSCN(K ) Chairman Khango Konyak beyond Hangsen and instructed them to return in Taga area.There is fear among NSCN(K) that Myanmar Army may arrest their 
top leaders and handover them to Indian Government.

Due to fear of arrest, many insurgent group leaders are hiding at an unspecified location in the jungle.Some intercepts from insurgent groups have revealed that they are not finding Myanmar border a conducive place
to run operations against India.

The spokesperson of banned NSCN(K), Isak Sumi has claimed that all the NSCN(K) cadres are safe in the wake of the attack launched against it by the Myanmar Army.

Isak Sumi in his Facebook post says: “The on-going standoff between the Myanmar Army and Naga Army has temporarily been resolved without untoward incident but Naga Army had to make a tactical withdrawal. The overall situation is still tense but the Naga Army are re-entrenched again and safe. Requesting prayer to all the loved ones.” Here he has referred to NSCN(K) as Naga Army.

It may be mentioned that the NSCN(K) has been maintaining its base in Myanmar and has provided logistic  support and training to many other militant outfits from Northeastern region especially those from Assam  and Manipur including the ULFA (Independent), NDFB (S), PLA etc., in its base. All these Myanmar-based NE militant groups have formed a banner organisation  called United Liberation Front of Western South East Asia,  to launch joint attacks on Indian security forces.
