ITANAGAR, Sept 16 – Expressing deep concern over the volatile security scenario prevailing in the Northeastern region, including Arunachal Pradesh, the Opposition BJP has urged the Centre to come up with a concrete policy decision, besides forming a constitutional body, ‘North East Security Council’ to put a check on movement of militant organisations operating from the soils of neighbouring countries – China, Myanmar and Bangladesh.
“During the successive Congress regime, the security scenario in North East has been becoming more volatile and dangerous. Due to lack of serious efforts on the part of the Union Government and aggressiveness from other side of the border, the internationally-aided secessionist and militant movement is being encouraged in the NE States, particularly in Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur, Mizoram and Nagaland which share international borders with China, Myanmar, Bhutan and Bangladesh,” said P Chandrasekhar Rao, the North East organizational in-charge of BJP, at a press conference here this afternoon.
The Saffron Brigade’s reaction came following the alleged Chinese incursions along Ladakh region in Jammu and Kashmir and reported border skirmishes along Sikkim and Uttaranchal, besides the oft-repeated claims of China over the territory of Arunachal Pradesh.
Sniffing a big conspiracy by China, Pakistan’s ISI and the United States CIA to create disturbance and instability in the region through the NE militant groups operating from foreign soils, the BJP urged the UPA Government to adopt “a clear cut policy” and even, hold an all-party meeting to have in-depth discussion over the matter. “We demand the Prime Minister, who is an MP from Assam, know the ground realities and understand the feelings of peace-loving people of the region,” Rao said.
Reiterating the party’s long-standing resolve for formation of North East Security Council in the line of National Security Council, he said, “A full-time constitutional body is needed to effectively handle the internal security problems in North East and to thwart the movement of militant organisations in the region.”
Holding the successive Congress Governments “solely responsible” for the fracas created in the region both internally and externally, the BJP leader said the Central Government should make a concrete policy decision for effective border management, and constitute Study Groups – one each for all NE States for addressing the security concerns.
State BJP leader and former MP Tapir Gao said that the government should understand the border skirmishes, intrusions whatever is happening along the Indo-China border. ASSAM TRIBUNE
