[ Samshum Changmi ]<\/strong><\/p>\n ITANAGAR, 21 Dec:<\/strong> The Ang Mai-led faction of the NSCN (K) has declared its intention to use all available means to oppose what it termed “illegal border fencing” along the “so-called Indo-Myanmar border of 1972” in Naga-inhabited areas.<\/p>\n In a statement released by its ministry of information and publicity (MIP), the group claimed that on 18 December a border survey team from “occupational India” was spotted near Longwa village, which is divided between India and Myanmar by the 1972 boundary.<\/p>\n Describing this activity as a “criminal act,” the faction warned against any recurrence, claiming that it violated both local and international laws.<\/p>\n The faction also threatened to target survey agencies and contractors involved in activities related to the “illegal 1972 Indo-Myanmar boundary,” regardless of their nationality or affiliation.<\/p>\n According to an MIP statement, the boundary was established without the consent of the Naga people and was a result of secret agreements between Indian and Myanmarese authorities.<\/p>\n The faction asserted that any attempt to “enforce or perpetuate this boundary” would be met with “severe military actions,” describing such efforts as threats to Naga unity and sovereignty.<\/p>\n “The anti-human and anti-laws of the land of 1972 that was secretly manoeuvred\u2026 will not have a second coming,” the group said.<\/p>\n It further cautioned against what it called “poisoning the Naga national movement” under the guise of the ongoing ceasefire.<\/p>\n The group reiterated its stance that no reminders or warnings would follow for any future activities related to the “illegal boundary.”<\/p>\n “Nagas were divided into India and Myanmar without our consent,” it said.<\/p>\n The Ang Mai faction is reportedly in a ceasefire agreement with the Myanmar junta and is engaged in talks with the government of India.<\/p>\n Earlier this year, the government of India announced plans to construct a fence along the 1,643-km Indo-Myanmar border, which runs through Arunachal Pradesh (520 kms), Nagaland (215 kms), Manipur (398 kms), and Mizoram (510 kms).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [ Samshum Changmi ] ITANAGAR, 21 Dec: The Ang Mai-led faction of the NSCN (K) has declared its intention to use all available means to oppose what it termed “illegal border fencing” along the “so-called Indo-Myanmar border of 1972” in Naga-inhabited areas.
