Northeast India was quiet for a long time. There, extremist activities began again. On Sunday, militants attacked an army water tanker in the Changlang area of Arunachal Pradesh. A soldier died on the spot. Another soldier was hospitalized in critical condition.
The army tanker was to fill the village with water from the army camp in the Changlang area on Sunday. According to sources, 20 extremists were hiding in the jungle on the road. The first explosion happened as soon as the tanker got there. Then random shots were fired. The extremists cover their bodies before the army can do anything.
According to eyewitnesses, there was another civilian vehicle in front of the tanker. It also took several takes. However, the passengers in the car were not injured.
No extremist group in Arunachal has yet claimed responsibility for the incident. However, it is believed that Alpha Swadhin of Paresh Barua and extremists of the Khaplang branch of Nikki Sumi caused the incident. On Friday, the deadline for identifying Arunachal Pradesh’s Tirap, Changlang and Longing districts as conflict areas was extended. Only then is it believed that the extremists struck. Earlier, in May last year, extremists attacked the army in the area. Nagaland was also attacked.
Several days ago, the Indian army destroyed an extremist refugee camp in Myanmar. So there was no more sabotage in Arunachal, Nagaland.
In fact, separatists in the region have been holding peaceful talks with the Indian government for a long time. Many have surrendered their weapons and agreed to sit at the negotiating table.
According to experts, in recent years, some of the central government’s decisions on northeast India have reignited tensions in the region. All of northeast India has been on fire since late last year centered on the NRC. Informed sectors believe that the unrest will increase if the separatists do not return to the negotiating table.
At the same time, some experts believe that China is inciting extremists. China has also increased its troops along the Arunachal border. They believe that China can take a chance by disrupting Arunachal. Deutsche Welle
