KEY POINTS
· The ambush on a convoy of the 46 Assam Rifles (AR) on the Indo-Myanmar border, which killed five AR personnel including its commanding officer.
· The fact that this ambush was mounted by the People’s Liberation Army (PLA), one of the seven banned armed groups in Manipur, along with the Manipur Naga People’s Front (MNPF), speaks to the fragility of the peace fostered by India’s counterinsurgency (COIN) strategies.
· The South Asia Terrorism Portal (SATP), arguably the most authoritative source on insurgency-related conflicts, was sanguine in its recent assessment.
· An ill-equipped police force of 50-60 headed by an inspector, complemented by a company each of the Indian Reserve Battalion and AR, seems inadequate to maintain “law and order” as well as regulate cross-border trade and movements.
· The PLA knows that the land-owning system in the hills is inhospitable to its interests in securing formal ownership rights the Centre’s ban makes matters more difficult for it.
· India needs to recalibrate its relations with Bangladesh and Myanmar to effectively deal with outfits such as the PLA and UNLF.
· There is also a compelling need to modernise intelligence gathering and military/police infrastructure.
· It also needs to be realised that the failure to bring the PLA and UNLF to the negotiating peace table will not only perpetuate the security dilemma and make the power dynamics in the Indo-Myanmar.
