Indian Army has to deal with tackling insurgents in the forested regions along the Myanmar border and towards the hinterland. The path used by patrols is also often taken by villagers and local hunters, who carry weapons. Distinguishing them from insurgents can be tricky. While the Army degrades the 'combat potential' of the insurgents, it has to contain the situation in Manipur if development, including the passage of the Asian Highway to Myanmar has to take place. Further, several insurgents groups, including the dreaded NSCN(K), have their bases across the border. Since the 2015 surgical strikes by the forces on insurgent camps following the Chandel attack, sources say that such camps have been moved deeper. Tune in as ET's Shaurya Karanbir Gurung brings you a glimpse of counter-insurgency operations in Manipur.
