Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh on Friday raised concerns over the state’s vulnerability to illegal infiltration from Myanmar on its eastern border and warned of a potential infiltration threat from Bangladesh through neighboring Assam.
Myanmar’s military junta, once feared as a monolithic force, is increasingly showing signs of internal decay.
The six-day meet is being organised by the National Human right Commission (NHRC) in collaboration with the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA).
China’s delicate and evolving role in Myanmar’s escalating civil war underscores the country’s shifting priorities in the region and the risks of balancing support for a faltering junta with the need for border stability.

"The river Tiau (which flows along the Champhai district in eastern Mizoram and divides India and Myanmar) was crossed by the refugees in small boats with the help of local Mizos,"
"Seven youths of Namtola (under Sivasagar district) were detained while they are on their way to the ULFA-I training camps across the Myanmar border. The group included a cadre who had earlier surrendered in 2016 and one who had already tried to join the banned outfit a couple of years back. During the operation, a pistol with ammunition was also recovered,"

The Champhai district along the India-Myanmar border is currently sheltering 4,550 refugees, the highest, followed by Aizawl district where 1,700 refugees have taken shelter. A majority of those who have taken shelter in the bordering state belong to the Chin community, also known as the Zo community, who share the same ancestry, ethnicity and culture as the Mizos of Mizoram.
