Breaking News: After China, Myanmar army enters Manipur,India for camping!

[Major Sam]

IMPHAL: After China, it is the turn of Myanmar to give India the blushes. Myanmarese troops crossed the border in Moreh on Thursday and are now prepared to set up a temporary camp at Holenphai village in Manipur's Chandel district, claiming the area lies within their country.

The Assam Rifles, which is guarding the India-Myanmar border, is yet to issue any official statement on the stunning development, but its jawans are said to have intensified patrolling in the Holenphai area. A source said the state government has informed the Centre.

The intrusion comes at a time when the Manipur government has decided to set up a committee to review the India-Myanmar border-fencing work in Chandel district, considering the public furore over it. The 10-km border fencing work taken up in Chandel has kicked up a storm with various social organizations and opposition parties saying a large chunk of land will fall in neighbouring Myanmar as a result of the exercise.

Manipur shares a 398-km border with Myanmar.

The Myanmarese army has initiated the ground work for setting up a temporary platoon base camp at Holenphai village, 3 km south of Moreh police station close to international border pillar number 76, said village authorities. The state government has already planned to develop a new township at Holenphei to boost Indo-Myanmarese commercial activities.

Taking into account the report made by Lalkholun Haokip, chief of Holenphai, Moreh additional deputy commissioner (ADC) Robert Singh Kshetrimayum, along with two police officers, went to inspect the site on Thursday.

The Myanmarese troops were found clearing the ground for setting up their temporary base camp, a source said, adding that Manipur officials called the CO of Myanmar Army's 87 Light Infantry to get his response. The ADC then pursued the Myanmarese CO with a request to halt the work until a final settlement is reached by the higher authorities of the two countries. Pointing out that the area is 10 metres away from the border pillar, the ADC urged the Myanmarese officer to meet his Assam Rifles counterpart stationed in Moreh town.

The Myanmarese CO told the Moreh ADC that Holenphai falls within Myanmar territory, for which they are setting up a camp. He said unless instructed otherwise by his higher authorities, he will not halt work.

An Assam Rifles officer said the matter has not been brought to the notice of the paramilitary force.

They are constructing on their own side of the border, only thing is that they are constructing the camp in no man's land(too close to border).

Too complicated for I am Saam's cognitive level

I am fine with them .At a time , I was sympathetic for the rohingya bengalis , but after knowing that they provoked the hostilities on the egging of mullahs ,I understood it was karma overdue.

Read the article properly, India is constructing a border fence, which leaves some of the Indian land outside the fence. India has done the same on Pakistan border and Bangladesh border (makes logistical sense). The land lies outside the fence, but the BSF/Indian Army still controls it. The news of farmers getting shot at Bangladesh border arises out of the same issue. Bangladeshi farmers come to plant their crops in these Indian lands and when they don't pay heed to the warnings they get shot some times.

Myanmar troops were camping ten metres away from the international border post.

Times of India is known to sensationalize things.

Villagers are not happy with the fencing work, as I mentioned earlier, some of the Indian land will fall on the other side of the fence towards Myanmar. So now the villagers are saying, look the land on the other side of the fence, the Burmese are occupying it, to make their case stronger. India won't let it happen though, as we know from the examples on Pakistan and Bangladesh border.

Hope this helps.

 

[notsuperstitious]

Heh heh, yes Myanmar is taking indian land, if that makes little timurids happy, so be it.

 

[Lightningbolt]

India is stepped on by everyone. I guess they all know the Indian economy has collapsed so India cannot afford to go to war. This is a bad period for India with countries invading them, shrinking economy, collapsing Rupee, high inflation, investors fleeing India, Iran seizing Indian ship, rape issues, etc.

I guess all that boasting has caught up to them and reality has hit them right between the eyes!

 

[beijingwalker]

After Myanmar stablizes and solves its own internal troubles,it'll become more assertive and a potential border threat to future India.
