Guwahati: An intelligence assessment on the regrouping of Northeast insurgent groups in China’s border areas with Myanmar was released by the country’s national security specialists.

According to reports, many Naga splinter organizations, as well as rebel Manipuri factions, are planning to disrupt the next state assembly election process in Manipur.

According to the intelligence report, militant groups are using the borderlands of China’s Yunnan province and Myanmar to reorganize.

“There is a China component to the rise of militancy,” stated former Inspector General of Assam Rifles at a press briefing. In China, there are members of several organizations.”

A few outlawed militant organizations are suspected to be reorganizing in China-Myanmar border areas, reports claimed.
