Delhi's ambush--will it spark a reign of 'contradictions' amongst the rebel groups of Manipur?

we had just witnessed a well-executed ambush by New Delhi when Union Home Minister,Mr Amit shah announced,on the floor of the Indian parliament(on the 9th December 2019)the coming of the Inner Line Permit System(ILPS) in Manipur.

We must readily admit that everybody in Manipur(posibly including the rebel groups) were completely taken by surprise by the ambush.

Symbolically also,the former Chief Minister of Manipur and the present Leader of Opposition in the Manipur Legislative Assembly,Mr Okram Ibobi was also made to eat his own words in a widely watched public space.We must remember here that Mr Okram Ibobi was,together with other leaders from Manipur,invited in New Delhi for a consultation meet on the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill.That was on the wee hours of the 3rd Dec 2019.All the leaders from Manipur wanted either the complete withdrawal of the controversial Bill or the insertion of some Clause guaranteeing the protection of Manipur's interest.But the very next morning the Bill was cleared by the Union Cabinet,demonstratably not taking any input from the consultation meeting.

During the consultation meeting,Mr Amit Shah never talked specifics of the proposed Clause which would protect Manipur's interet,even though he kept repeating that he would definitely do something to protect Manipur's interest.

Now,it's clear that the invitation to the leaders of Manipur at the eleventh hour was the part of a well thought-out design of hoodwinking people to the grand finale of the ambush.Of course,Mr Okram Ibobi bit the bait and termed the consultation meeting as a hogwash.

Now,Mr Okram Ibobi was made to eat his own words and we know that it is not the person of Mr Okrmm Ibobi which is significant to us--rather,it's the symbolism of the 'masked' revelation seen through him(my last post).

It's  quite clear that New Delhi undertook a lot of groundwork and invested a lot time and energy to score petty points agaisnt the 'masked' revelation.It's clear that the moment New Delhi announced the visit of Mr Shinzo Abe to Manipur saw the first step taken to extend the ILPS to Manipur as well--they quietly plotted the ambush while they started using the top diplomatic channels to approach the Government of Japan for a summit meeting with their Prime Minister with its Indian counterpart in Guwahati,thus paving the way for Mr Shibzo Abe's visit to Manipur.They are equivocal on this--if you use the spectre of Mr Xi Jinping to give out to the world the glimpse of the 'masked' revelation,we have the far more superior(that is,historically) symbol of Japanese militarism in the person of Mr Shinzo Abe--we would definitely utilize the spectre of Mr Shinzo Abe to pursue the counter-measure for the 'masked' revelation.

Now the big question: will it spark a reign of 'contradictions' amongst the rebel groups of Manipur?

1) We have noted in my post titled "The 3rd battle of the 2nd War of Kurukshetra coming on the 9th Jan"(8th update),dated the 6th Jan 2019 that some of the rebel groups of Manipur were infiltrated by the religio-linguistic constituent of Manipur.The publicly stated agenda of this constituent is the
slogan--"Script is the father and language is the mother".Mother language have already been 'secured' by the amendment of the 8th Schedule of the Constitution of India on the 20th August 1991.The scipt is also in the process of being 'secured' by progressively replacing the Bengali script by Meitei script in the schools of Manipur.Now,the population of Manipur is also in the process of being 'secured' by the extension of ILPS to Manipur.

Would the religio-linguistic constituent recognize the confluence of the above three episodes as the 'revolution' of Manipur?

Would the mainstream rebel groups,which are not infected by the religio-linguistic virus, agree with this new definition  of 'revolution'?

2) I'm not a Constitutional expert and right now,I'm confused.

The President of India issued the Gazette notification for the extension fo the ILPS to Manipur on the 11th Dec 2019.Is the President of India also given the power to extend the amendment of the law enabling the Territorial Council in Assam to the State of Manipur as well?

Does the President of India's Gazette notification still need a Parliamentary approval?

In the above scenario, can we envision a scenario wherein the Union Home Minsiter,Mr Amit Shah, bringing up the approval of the extension of the ILPS to Manipur together with the second proposal to approve the extension of Territorial Council law to Manipur(to usher in the formation of the Naga Territorial Council within the State of Manipour) .The Home Minsiter would most likely send the subtle message that the ILPS is the trade off of the acceptance of a Naga Territorial Council within Manipur by the majority community of Manipur.

How would the relgio-linguistic constituent react to this?

Would they accept the Naga Territorial Council as the reasonable trade off?

3) So far,all the rebel groups of Manipur publicly state their position that their fight is with Delhi--the Governemnt of Manipur is just a puppet of Delhi.In their revolutionary terminology,the main contradiction is between the people of Manipur and Delhi.

Now,in the changed scenario,the status of the 'revolution'(as seen by the religio-linguistic constituent) would be gauged by the implementation part of the ILPS,which would be handled by the Manipur Government machenery.It is widely known that the ILPS which is currently in force in Nagaland,Mizoram and Arunachal Pradesh is perpetually compromised by the sloppy and corrupt officials of the respective State Governments.So,one aspect of the 'revolution' in Manipur would depend on Manipur Government--not on Delhi.

Now,would the rebel groups,infiltraed by the religio-linguistic constituent,re-state their their positions as that of the main contradiction being in the realm of people of Manipur versus the Governemnt of Manipur?

How would the mainstream rebel groups,not infected by the religio-linguistic virus,react to this re-statement of the new positions?

(From the late evening of the 9th Dec upto the close of the 10th Dec we witnessed the public display of intellectual shallowness of both the religio-linguistic constituent and the Government of Manipur--in that,they both showed off their intellectual incapabilties to grasp the real intent of New Delhi;New
Delhi's true intent is not the welfare of Manipur but to set up an effective ambush for the 'masked' revelation.The flip side of the public display of their intellectual shallowness is that it shows off the first glimpse of the undercurrent of the coming turf war between the religio-linguistic constituent and the Government of Manipur).

4) There is also an interesting corollary to the above second statement.

As the status of their revolution stays in the hands of the Manipur Governemnt officials,the religio-linguistic constituent might try to capture the reins of power of the Manipur Governemnt itself.Unless they embark on this endeavour,their revolution would reamin in perpetual jeopardy.

Capturing the reins of power of the Government of Manipur would entail entering the electoral politics.

Would they also announce that entering the electoral politics and capturing the reins of power of the Manipur Governmant are tactical necessities during the democratic movement phase of the long journey of the revolution?

Would they try to build up a Manipuri version of a Dravida Munntra Kazhagam(DMK),an All India Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam(AIDMK) or a Shiv Sena?

Would they say that as the 'masked' revelation is also closely in tandem with the DMK,AIDMK or ShivSEna,what would be big fuss if they try to relate with 'masked' revelation by building up the said Manipuri version?

These two questions make us to see the significance of the coming visit of the Prime Minister of Japan,Mr Shinzo Abe,in Manipur on the 17th Dec 2019.

In my post,titled "And Mr Rahul Gandhi goes to Bangkok" dated 12th Oct 2019 it was stated that the first glimpse of the 'masked'revelation came to our view in Tamil Nadu,eleven days before the visit of Mr Xi Jinping,the President of the People's Republic China.

Now,New Delhi is bringing in Mr Shinzo Abe,the Prime Minister of Japan,in Manipur as a counter-statement to the Chinese Pr resident's visit to Tamil Nadu(which,we must emphasize,let us have the first glimpse of the 'masked' revelation).

So,how do we parse out this counter-statement?

1) New Delhi is sending the subtle message to the religio-linguistic constituent in Manipur to build up a Manipuri version of a DMK,AIDMK or Shiv Sena.New Delhi is stating that it's open to sharing of power with the new formation.

2) If they are worth their salt,the religio-linguistic constituent is being presented with a wide avenue to handle their revolution with their own hands--New Delhi must be watching the whole procedure from a distance as a father figure.The presently quotable example--the actual implemenation fo the ILPS,thus' securing' their population.

3) The occasional contentious issues,like the Territorial Council of the Nagas or the Kukis would be dealt with withn the framework of the power sharing mechnism as envisaged in the above two points.

4) The fourth facade is the logical outcome of the above three policy statements.In order to facilitate the evolution of the Manipuri version of a DMK,an AIDMK or a Shiv Sena the powers and reach of the mainstream rebel groups needs to drastically contained.This only means a debilitating military strike against those mainstream rebel groups.New Delhi is saying,with a high dose of drama(Mr shinzo Abe as the dramatic prop--wonderful!) and even with a pinch of sadism(a bye-product of Japanese militarism plus Hindu supremacism--distasteful!),that the big military strike is coming.

The counter-statement,in a nutshell,this time,addressing the religio-linguistic constituent of Manipur--you should neither feel an iota of sense of intimidation nor get drowned in the sea of self doubt--people,like,Mr Shinzo Abe,are solidly behind you.

It's happening NOW!(updated)

When Shiv Sena(in Maharastra),demanded,out of the blue,the post of the chief ministership,it's unstoppable to suspect that something big was afoot.Seen in the context  that Shiv Sena had gotten its members elected to the State Assembly in the ratio 1:2 to its electoral ally, the Bharatya Janata Party(BJP),the suspicion is dramatically amplified.It has half the number of Members of Legislative Assembly(MLAs) of its electoral ally but still made the demand for the post of chief ministership.Something not connected with normally accepted political practice in India had propelled the Shiv Sena to make the game-changing move.

Is it that the 'masked' revelation in Tamil Nadu had communicated with the cream of the Maratha national interest in Maharastra?

For an explainer,let's have a relook at what 'masked' revelation is.In the 'last word' section of the next to  last post of this blog,it is what was written of the 'masked' revelation:

----

We should not fail to notice the looting of several hundred crores worth of jewellery in Chennai on a date which is only eight days away from the visit of the Chinese President on its outskirt.The two men were wearing masks depicting Manipur's "Kre kre mo mo....Tokpaga Kaambaga...."

That particular day did not witness the 'gross' negotiation like those of NSCN(IM) and the govt of India.Instead,there were those 'subtle'dancing to the beats that were so meaningfully(even,poetically)let out from the corridors of India's imperial power structures.

If New Delhi shows off who are really their friends by way of subtle slow dancing on that day,we would have a  'masked' revelation on the same day at the Southernmost point of the Indian Sub-continent--that was the way of that momentous day.

----


If one looks carefully back at the chronology of the events in Maharastra,it is Mr Rahul Gandhi,who was again briefed by the power that be in New Delhi of the surfacing of the 'msked'revealation in the Maratha land.

On the day two of the Shiv Sena demand,its leader met another Maratha leader,Mr Sharad Pawar,the president of the Nationalist Congress Party(NCP).Mr pawar's response was that he would meet Mrs Sonia Gandhi,the interim president of the Indian National Congress(INC) in New Delhi and only then he would announce his party's support to the Sena demand.(It needs to be noted here that Mr Devendra Fadnavis,though a Maharastrian,is not,by virtue of his caste,acceptable as the symbol of legitimate Maratha aspiration and interest.)

Mr Pawar went to New Delhi and met Mrs Gandhi.Coming out of the meeting,he said he made a deal with Mrs Gandhi which was apparently remains only to be officially announced.

Then,something went wrong.

It was reported in the media that Mr Rahul Gandhi personally intervened to delay the official announcement.

This delay makes it possible for the BJP leader, Mr Devendra Fadnavis to make himself the Chief Minister of Maharastra by making the Governor(who makes moves to the pull of the strings from the imperial New Delhi) to perform the Constitutional ritual in a bizzaire affair in the early morning of  23rd Nov 19 .Mr Fadnavis managed to rope in the nephew of Mr Sharad Pawar,Mr Ajit Pawar as the Deputy Chief Minister.

We need to pause here for a very interesting connection from Manipur to the whole story.

Former Chief Minster and the official Opposition Leader in the Manipur Legislative Assembly,Mr Okram Ibobi was somehow propelled to leave Manipur for New Delhi on the 13th Noc 2019.His visit is to persuade political leaders there to respect the sanctity of Manipur's territorial integrity against the backdrop of the presently-continuing Indo-Naga peace talk and to restrain the BJP-led government in New Delhi from re-introducing the controversial Citizenship Amendment Bill in the ongoing Parliament session.

We must note the symbolic number 13.It symbolizes the 13th of August,again linking to Crown Prince,Koireng(Yubaraj Tikendrajit).The former chairman of the oldest rebel gtoup of Manipur,who is presently 'lodgrd' in a secret place in New Deli by the officials of the Ministry of Home Affairs,is the direct descendant of Crown Prince,Koireng.

As if to make the conncectiion most clear the very first political leader Mr Okram Ibobi met in New Delhi is none other than the NCP president Mr Sharad Pawar.

And,the last leader he met was also not less revealing.Mr Okram Ibobi met the leaders of the Dravida Munnetra Kazagham(DMK).The DMK,along with the AIDMK(All India Davidra Munnetra Kazagham) are throbbing iconic players who had been successfully resisted the power encroachment of Delhi empire in the guise of electoral ploys.It was in the land of DMK ans AIDMK where we first got a glimpse of the 'masked' revelation.(my next to last post).

New Delhi quickly read the Manipur connection and retaliated even quicker.

The Central Buereau of Investigation(CBI) made surprise raids om the offices and residence of Mr Okram Ibbobi on the 22nd Nov 2019(while he was still in New Delhi).Together with the office and residence of Mr Okram Ibobi.seven other places across India were also simultaneously raided by the CBI.(Till date,the CBI has not issued any official communique of the raids,even though,its a normal practice following its official raids).

Today(26-11-19) the Supreme Court of India,taking cognizance of the joint plea of Shiv Sena,NCP and INC ruled that:

1) Floor test of the Fadnavis Government would be done by 27-11-2019.

2) A protem speaker should be appointed.

3) The voting by the MLAs should be by open ballot and telecasted live.

My bet is that Mr Rhaul Gandhi was briefed that defeating the 'masked' revelation is the paramount Indian national interest and that includes the protection of rhe BJP-led Fadnavis government,even though the BJP is the political rival of Mr Rahul Gandhi.

How would Mr Rahul Gandhi's MLAs act in the Maharastra Assembly on the 27th Nov 2019?

Even better question should run like this--

How would Mr Rahul Gandhi's MLAs act in the Maharastra Legislative Assembly in the coming weeks and months?


NEWS SOME MINUTES AGO--Mr Fadnavis resigned as the Chief Minster.The question is--what will be the present status of the Supreme Court ruling?


UPDATE
28-11-2019
8:42 am

There are three developments:

1) In a sudden and unscheduled move,they are setting him free. The former chairman of the oldest rebel group of Manipur is arriving at Imphal at around 1.30 pm of 28th Nov 19..

2) Mr Udhav Thackeray of the Shiv Sena is being sworn in the Chief Minister of Maharastra  at arond 6.40 pm of 28th Nov 19.

3) Reading the above two statements together,what do we get?

4) Another important development is that the Governor of Maharastra has already given Mr Udhav thackeray till the 3rd Dec 2019 to prove his majority on the floor of the State Legislative Aseembly.Here,we have to note the significance of the number 3.It was on the 3rd of  October 2019 (in Chennai) when we first got a glimpse of the 'masked'revelation (my next to last post).

5) The time given to Mr Udhav Thackeray is 7 days.What should make out of this? From time immemorial the number 7 is closely connected with Manipur.New Delhi is clearly sending a message to Manipur.

A case of unwittingly empowering coercive agencies,like the NIA?

Amidst the chaos we are experiencing right at the moment,we must consciously pinch ourselves so as to make us remember that Manipur's destiny lies in the opening up of the Eastern Gate(Nongpok Thong).

I watched the GEO TV clip of the London affair.All I got was the work of a camera panning and capturing all the actors present in the room--it was panning from a distance.

Manipur's people definitely deserve a far better video clip of the event.

The camera should properly roll into the face of the lead actor.Then,it should catch the main acror speaking out directly and succinctly what the media have been hollering from the rooftop during the past few days.

Manipur's people deserve to hear the message straight from  the horse's mouth.

Then,one thing starts to annoy me greatly--did the London affair unwittingly empower the coercive agencies,like the NIA to selectively target the civil society organizations(CSOs) which are, right at the moment, working together to safeguard the territorial integrity of Manipur.

The Chief Minister had clearly spelled out during a press conference that the case regarding the London affair would be handed over to the NIA.He announced that an FIR had already been registered in the Imphal West Police Station(he even mentioned the FIR number).As per the FIR,the Crime Branch would be instructed to collect all relevant information of the Manipur-based actors during the next one or two weeks.

After that,the case would be handed over to the NIA,together with all the files containg those information.

The crucial point here is the position of the titular king of Manipur.

To my mind,the titular king would be put to use by the NIA to serve as the starting point to witch hunt selective CSOs of Manipur.

In the short term,the currently happening united agitation for safeguarding the integrity of Manipur on the aftermath of the final signing of the Indo-Naga peace talk would suffer as the NIA starts to selectively target a sizable number of them.

In the long term,the NIA is likely to position itself into an endless loop of short spurt of targeting the CSOs and comparatively longer period of resting.They are likely to let this loop to work at their own pace until enough pressure have been applied to a selective group of CSOs which would result in a permanent line dividing the CSOs right in the middle of their playing field.

And Mr Rahul Gandhi goes to Bangkok.

Right at the moment,Mr Rahul Gandhi is in Bangkok sojourn.

Most interestingly,Mr Rahul Gandhi's visit comes up just when the Chinese President,Mr Xi Jinping begins his India visit in Tamil Nadu and when the NSCN(IM) leaders crawled back to New Delhi for yet another crucial talk,where they publicly admitted that New Delhi this time had failed to honour the terms and spirit of the venerable Framework Agreement.

 India's body polity,manifested in its person of the opposition leader of its political playing field,Mr Rahul Gandhi points to something which is closely connected with Bangkok.Immediately,the Bangkok Declaration signed between the Govt of India and the NSCN(IM) comes to mind.The most important feature of the Bangkok Declaration is that phrase depicting the ceasefire agreement as being operational in a space having no "territorial limit".

That phrase has already settled into the body of Manipur's political discourse as defining the varied threat to the territorial integrity of Manipur.

Seen in the above context,Mr Rahul Gandhi's Bangkok visit is meant to send the political message to the Chinese President,Mr Xi Jinping that Manipur's territorial integrity is no longer sacrosanct.

Now,they are,in the personality of their opposition leader,Mr Rahul Gandhi,publicly states that the smashing of Manipur into several parts is the official agenda of the Indian State.

Then,the crucial question comes up--would they implement it like they had done in Jammu and Kashmir?

Not exactly.

To my mind,they are moving in a more subtle manner.

The deciding factor in New Delhi's pathway is likely to be the health of the constituent within the Manipuri society,whose face we had the chance to see when they came out in full force to effect an amendment to the Constitution of India back on 20th August 1981.(Last update of my last post).

In the last update of my last post,we have already seen that this constituent had already infiltrated the ranks and cadre of Manipur's underground movement.

It's now clear that this constituent has no intellectual capacity,by virtue of its time-warped existence inside the feudal box,to see beyond the symptoms.They are incapable of seeing that whatever is happening to Manipuri language(and its correponding script,(the Meetei Mayek) is the direct symptom of the health of the present day Manipuri society.If the Manipuri society is ailing,then the Manipuri language is also in bad health.Bracketing Manipuri Language to a particular clause of the Indian Constitution would not bring it to its health.If we continuously and relentlessly work to make our society super healthy,then the Manipuri language would also become vibrant and healthy.There is no other way.

Making a lot of noise around the symptoms is the worst case of leading the Manipuri society in a wrong and destructive direction.

Then,there is the recurring case of aping the state of Israel.They are saying that like the case of Judaism playing a crucial role in the emergence of Jewish nationhood (thus,in the formation of the state of Israel),we should also start all our struggle by first converting ourselves to Sanamahi religion.

We can readily admit that Judaism had played a crucial role in the emergence of Jewish nationhood (thus,in the formation of state of Israel).But religion(be it Hinduism,Snamahism or whatever) had no role in the emergence of the Meetei nationhood,by way of melting together of seven clans,namely,Ma-ngang ,Luwang,Khuman etc.

So,why aping Israel?The most plausible reason is that they have not the intellectual ability to go deeper inside the geo-pokitical complexity enveloping the present status of Meetei nationhood.They are fantasizing a way out of the complexity of Manipur's present day geo-political cross currents by buying the easily and off-the-shelve available model of the emergence of the state of Israel.

Whatever might be underlying forces,we have now in our hands the fatal recipe of religion,language and script.

The political thinkers in New Delhi are keenly aware of the emergence of this fatal recipe of the Manipuri society.They have already started nurturing the growth of this constituent within the Manipuri society.We now have a publicly available clue to the start of the ground breaking collaboration between New Delhi and this religio-linguistic constituent within the Manipuri society.

In the last update of my last post,we have already concluded that the young student,Ningthoujam Babysana of Thangmeiband was murdered in the course of brutal and chemically-induced lesbian rape.This chemically-induced murder of the young girl was cold-bloodedly planned and executed by this religio-lingusitic constituent.

In the aftermath of this sensational murder of Babysana we saw one crucial development in the emergence of a minor league rebel group within the varied and numerous rebel groups of Manipur which had thrown its prestige in line by publicly declaring that they were officially investigating the murder.In a series of press statements,they had even claimed to have gotten some real clues which would ultimately result in the unmasking of the murderers.In their last press statement,they declared that by virtue of the quality of the clues in their hands,they would close down the school where the murder took place.

It took only several weeks after this last press statement of the minor league rebel group for us to read in the newspapers that their chairman was arrested in,of all places,Bihar.The most plausible explanation is that the religio-linguistic constituent,now firmly infiltrated within the rank and file
of the underground movement,quitely asked around the whereabouts of the leaders of the particular minor league rebel group.Then,they gave the information to the military intelligence of the Indian army.

This collaboration between the religio-linguistic constituent and India's military has already started giving out a pattern.

The line depicting the pathway of this religio-linguistic constituent would ultimately intersect with that of what the Indian Constitution call the National Minority status segment.This segment is defined by its religion,nemaly,the Parsis by Zoroastrainism,the Sikhs by Sikhism,the Budhists by Budhism etc.

Now,New Delhi has started to nurture this religio-linguistic constituent with a objective of nudging it to make a noisy demand for bestowing the National Minority Status. In other words.the Indian state is nudging the religio-linguistic constituent withn the Manipuri society to stop murdering little girls and
,instead,to start prioritizing their energy in building up agitation for the amendment of the Constitution of India.Ah!The Indian State and the child murderers!!

Howsoever might we cherish to see the pinning down of the murderers and punishing them through a legitimate legal process then are they being scooped off the level playing field by the mighty power of the Indian state in all its multifaceted covert operations.We see no justice in sight.

As is wont of all covert operations,there sure will be an evil facet. we can foresee that the Indian State might,as a trade off of granting the National Minority status,force the relgio-linguistic constituent to settle for smaller geographical area.In the later stage of the negotiation the Indian state would openly come out that lesser geographical area tantamount to Union Territory status--they would get their National Minority status but only in the Union Territory realm.That would definitely complete a circle,in that,there are already strong demands for alternative administrative structures in the Northern and Southern mountain ranges surrounding Imphal valley.

That would entail smashing the present day Manipur into three Union Territories--Imphal valley,Northern Mountain ranges ans Southern ranges.But the crucial point here is that the Indian state would not publicly spell out this scheme of things--they would delegate this spelling out exercise to the religio-linguisticx consituent within the Manipuri society which they are likely to implement by way of noisy agitations for the National Minority status.

Now,we have three Union Territories out Manipur,two or three from Nagaland,four or five from Assam and one or two from Arunachal Pradesh.Nagalim of Muivah's dream might comprise of four or five of these Union Territories,loosely ruled by a  Constitutionally enacted pan-Naga body.

Of course,we have yet to discuss the likely reaction to the imminent agenda of the religio-linguistic constituent by the whole body of the Manipuri society.It would be naive for us to think that New Delhi would have no insurance policy for the expected upheaval coming out as the reaction of the whole body of the Manipuri society.

The most probable scenario is that the India's military might have a plan to inflict a crushing and debilitating military blows to the armed wings of the rebel groups of Manipur.The next step would be the lock-down of the Imphal valley--cutting off internet connectivity,physically blockading newsprint along the national highways,arresting several thousand CSO and Meira Paibi leaders etc

Wearing the mask of the rebels, the religio-linguistic constituent is lying low but working quitely from within the ranks and cadre of the rebel establishment and with collaboration with India's military intelligence to inflict the crushing blow to the rebel backbone.

Only after the completion of the military offensive and lock down of the Imphal valley would the religio-linguistic constituent come openly in accepting National Minority status and a smaller geographical area in the form of a Union Territory comprising whole of Imphal valley together with some portions of hill ranges surrounding the valley.

The above political and social setting would only come about after a series protracted military battles inside the Burmese jungle.In perusing world military history three things usually come up--chilly winter of Russia,dry hills of Afghanistan and the bewildering jungles of Burma.

Would the followers of ideology of Akhand Bharat have the ingenuity to prove the world history wrong?

Would they be resilient enough to win a protracted war inside the jungles of Burma?


THE LAST WORD

We should not fail to notice the looting of several hundred crores worth of jewellery in Chennai on a date which is only eight days away from the visit of the Chinese President on its outskirt.The two men were wearing masks depicting Manipur's "Kre kre mo mo....Tokpaga Kaambaga...."

That particular day did not witness the 'gross' negotiation like those of NSCN(IM) and the govt of India.Instead,there were those 'subtle'dancing to the beats that were so meaningfully(even,poetically)let out from the corridors of India's imperial power structures.

If New Delhi shows off who are really their friends by way of subtle slow dancing on that day,we would have a  'masked' revelation on the same day at the Southernmost point of the Indian Sub-continent--that was the way of that momentous day.

This 'masked' revelation has a huge geo-political meaning.

Two days later,Hong Kong decreed that face masks would be banned in its public places.

Another five days later,we witnessed the knee-jerked reaction of the ally of India--the West.Turkey was led inside Syria to begin military operations against the minority Kurds.

The 3rd battle of the 2nd War of Kurukshetra coming on the 9th of January 2019?(updates-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8)

The Prime Minister of India had just made an official visit to Manipur on the 4th Jan 2019.

The Prime Minister inaugurated 8(4+4) development projects.

He also laid the foundation stones for another 4 new developmental projects.

So,the crucial number is 4.

To try to understand the meaning of this crucial number let's have a re-look at a particular para of my post(13th Dec 2018):


-------

Now comes the crucial recollection of a moment some 50 days ago.I vividly remember the moment.It was the night after the shooting down of the State Secy of BJP in Jammu and Kashmir.The Prime Minister was on All India Radio telling us that his govt is guaranteeing clearance of MSME sector loans in just 59 minutes.Noting the shooting down of the J&K BJP leader the previous day,I immediately suspected that the Prime Minister was speaking on a coded message.I thought for a moment and then came to the conclusion that he was referring to the 6th month,June and the date,10--I simply added 1 to both 5 and 9.I then thought that the Prime Minster was talking of avenging the shooting down of J&K BJP leader on the 10th June 2019.Wow,how he spoke in a code,I thought.

Now,I have to re-work my decoding.

1 minute less an hour is 59.(Note that 59 minutes by the Prime Minister).

1 day less a month is either 29 or 30.

Now,the crucial point--

1 unit less a dozen is 11.


-------

Going by the above method of decoding,the number 4 for the month of January 2019 signifies either 9th or the 23rd of the month.We come to the 9th of January if we start the decoding from the beginning of the month and 23rd,from the end of the month.

Personally. I'll bet for the 9th of January 2019.

The reason is that the date 9th of January is the day the Manipur king Chinglen Nongdren Khomba(Gambhir Singh) passed away on the way back from a military expedition to Burma.And New Lazang is everything to do with Burma.

It must also be noted here that before coming to Imphal the Prime Minister inaugurated the 106th Indian Science Congress in Punjab.We have to remember here that this 'Kurukshetra stuff' all began with the 105th Indian Science Congress in Imphal.

I'll now reproduce a portion of my post(31st March,2018) dealing with this topic:


------

....we will be hugely rewarded if we remember that the Prime Minister of India himself was in Imphal on the 16th of March 2018 for something connected with 100 and 5.

It would be easy for anybody to remember that 100 signifies the Kouravas and 5,the Pandavas.

....The Prime Minsiter of India,the Kouravas and the Pandavas--what a significant co-relation!


------


So,by inaugurating the 106th Indian Science Congress just a day before his Manipur visit,the Prime Minister reiterated that this 'Kurushetra stuff' is alive and kicking.

Going by this lead,should we expect the 3rd battle of the 2nd War of Kurukshetra at New Lazang on the 9th of January 2019?

One last thing--I'm not certain of this but I'm just musing.

Is it feasible to keep a tab on areas around New Lazang on the 9th January by using Google Earth?


UPDATE-1
13-1-2019
3:39 pm


So,what did they do on the 9th January 2019?

India's Cabinet Committee on Parliamentary affairs scheduled the Budget Session from the 31st of January to the 3rd of February 2019.The interim budget is to be presented on the 1st of February.

In other words,they had re-scheduled the date of the 3rd battle of the 2nd War of Kurukshetra.

What is the reason behind this assertion?

If we look back at my last post,it will be clear that the 2nd battle of the 2nd War of Kurukshetra was on the 11th December 2018.It is the day the Winter Session of India's parliament commemced.It seems that they want to send out the message that this war is by the people owing allegiance to the doctrine of Democracy.Thus,it stands to reason that the 3rd battle should also re-state this message.

Before going further,it will make our perspective more lucid if we go some days back from the day they announced the new schedule.

On the 8th January 2019,another official of Huawei was arrested in Poland.We have to remember here that it all started with the arrest of Ms Meng Wanzhou,CFO,Huawei, on the ist December 2018.(My  last post).

On the 8th January 2019, the lower house of India's Parliament passed the Citizenship amendment Bill.

On the 10th January 2019, India's Chief of Army Staff met the Press as his annual Meet the Press programme.During the Press Meet,he talked,among other things,about cross-border threats and India's response to them.

Earler,on the 4th January 2019,during his second stop-over at Silchar(after Imphal),the Prime Minister of India had publicly  announced that the Citizenship Amendment Bill would be passed by the Parliament.We have to remind ourselves here the significance of the number 4.The announcement was made on the 4th and the Bill was actually passed by the lower house of the Parliament on the 8th(4+4).We have already discussed the significance of the number,4,in the main body of this post.

Coming upto this point,we must not fail to put up another assertion.The 2nd War of Kurukshetra is not a limited scale assault on the rebel hideouts along New Lazang sector of Manipur Burma border.By now it's clear that the 2nd War of Kurukshetra is the full scale assault on all things associated with the narrative of 'indigenous'.The social upheaval(against the Citizenship Amendment Bill) we have been witnessing right across the NE Region bear testimony to our assertion.

Now,we come to the crux of the problem.Should we try our hands on another decoding exercise using the newly available numbers,namely,31,1,2 and 3?Here,we have come face to face with 4 numbers--again.Ah!The significance of the number,4!!

Let's strike out the number,1,because they are going to present the interim buget on the 1st day of February.

Now,we are left with three numbers,namely,31,2 and 3.

We know 31 is the last day January 2019.So,what's the last day of February of the same year?No effort here--it's the 28th.Now,we have the 28th of February 2019 as our new number.Then,what we make of the remaining numbers, 2 and 3?

For my part,I add up the two numbers and come to another new number,5.Then I go backwards from the 28th February upto the fifth spot.Doing so,we come to our newest number,the 24th of February 2019.

We can assert that this new number,namely,the 24th of February 2019,is the magic number we have been looking for.The reson for this assertion is that the number 24 is the one which is clearly associated with the oldest rebel group of Manipur.

Here is the final word.The re-scheduled date for the 3rd battle of the 2nd War of Kurukshetra is the 24th February 2019.


UPDATE-2
20-1-2019
3:22 pm

They had made some changes on the duration of the interim Budget Session.Now,it starts on the 31st January and concludes on the 13th February 2019.

The most notable thing here is that the changes were announced on the 16th January 2019.

we must remind ourselves that the narrative of the 2nd War of Kurukshetra started with the Prime Minister's visit to Imphal on the 16th March 2018 for the 105th National Science Congress.The first post dealing with this narrative was published on the  31st March 2018 .The numbers noted there were 100,5 and 16.The numbers 100 and 5 point to 100 brothers against 5 brothers--the identifying feature of the War of Kurukshetra.The number 16 points to the 16th of October,one of the probable dates of the actual start of the War of Kurukshetra.We need to go back to that particular post to get the full details.

Now,the decoding exercise we did on my first update goes haywire.We need to do it all over again.

As we had done on the first decoding,let's strike out 1st February as they are still presenting the interim Budget on this particular day.Doing this we get the number 12(13-1).

We have another new number--16.The 16th October,the probable date of the commencement of the original War of Kurukshetra,which was hinted at by the 16th January 2019 announcement.

Adding the numbers,12 and 16,we get the number 28.

The crucial month associated with our number 16 is October.So,starting from October we must reach February.Doing so,we get our newest number--5.

As we had done on our first decoding,we now go backwards from the number 28 upto the 5th spot.Doing so,we again come face to face with our magic number--24.

So,in my scheme of things,24th February 2019 is still the D-day for the 3rd battle of the 2nd war of Kurukshetra.


UPDATE-3
24-1-2019
12:13 pm

I'm reproducing the whole report from Newsonair regarding the Government of India's Cabinet decision of 23rd Jan 2019.

-----

Cabinet has approved the landmark amendment to Article 280 of the Constitution to increase powers of Autonomous Councils in Sixth Schedule areas of North East.

The proposed amendment will give more powers to Autonomous District Councils of Assam, Meghalaya, Mizoram and Tripura.

State Finance Commissions will be set up in Assam, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Tripura, Karbi Anglong Autonomous Territorial Council and Dima Hasao Autonomous Territorial Council.

Finance Commission will recommend devolution of financial resources to ten Autonomous District Councils, and village and municipal councils in Sixth Schedule areas.

More funds will be given to local government institutions for development works in these tribal areas. The proposed amendments will have elected village and municipal councils ensuring grass root democracy.

The State Election Commissions will hold elections to  Autonomous Councils, village and municipal councils in the scheduled areas of Assam, Mizoram and Tripura. One-third of seats will be reserved for women in the village and municipal councils. At least two nominated members in all autonomous councils will be women.

-----

In my mind,this Cabinet decision is the precursor to the announcement of the final settlement of Naga Peace talk.

As the main backbone of the final settlement,they will have several of these newly empowered Autonomous District Councils(by virtue of the application of the Sixth Schedule of the Constitution of India).

If the Nagas have these Autonomous District Councils,another round of several Autonomous District Councils for the Kuki Mizo Chin people is not the question of 'if' but 'when'.

Encircled by those Autonomous District Councils,Manipur as a State will be destroyed.

I also think that this Cabinet decision is another strand of the complex strategy of the Government India's 2nd War of Kurukshetra.


UPDATE-4
24-2-2019
2:11 pm.

We should not fail to note the date on which the Nagas took out the rally in New Delhi demanding the early resolution of the Indo-Naga Peace Talk.The rally was on the 23rd of February--exactly one month after the Government of India's Cabinet decision to increase the powers of the Autonomous District Councils under the 6th Schedule of the Constitution of India.The details regarding the anatomy and portents of the Cabinet decision taken on the 23rd January 2019 are discussed in the last update of this post.

Before going any further we should arm ourselves with the significance of two other game changing dates.

1) The date on whcich the Telengana state was formed under the Article 3 of the Constitution of India.If we remember correctly it was the date on which the Government of India bulldozed the formation of a new State by the application of the Article 3 of the Constitution of India.The Telengana State was forcibly formed against the overall resistance of the people of Andhra Pradesh.The Date is 2nd of June 2014.

2) The date on which the Governemnt of India signed the Framework Agreement with the NSCN(IM).The date is 3rd August 2015.

After this exercise,we can now proceed further.

The Prime Minister of India,Mr Narendra Modi landed in the South Korean capital in the night of 21st February 2019.While he was in Seoul,the giant Korean tech company,Samsung announced the existence of Galaxy Fold.Samsung was announcing its own foldable phone--the Galaxy Fold.

For us here in the North Eastern part of India,the life threatening news comes up in the next part of the Samsung announcement.Samsung announced that the Galaxy Fold would be available for purchase from 26th April 2019 onwards.

We have another new date--the 26th of April 2019,which I dare to brand as 'life threatening.'

Why?

I'm dealing with the question in the coming paras.But why should we drag in the impeccable global brand,like Samsung into the sordid political machination of the Government of India?The answer to this question is not really hard to find.For one thing,we find that the sordid political machination of the Goernment of India has been somehow entangled with Huawei and its Chief Finance Officer,Ms Meng Wangzhou.And we come to a slow realization that Huawei,not Apple,is going to be the real competitor to Samsung.In this scenario,they might have thought it perfectly aligned with their battle plans for the 2nd War of Kurukshetra to drag in the would-be competitor of Huawei to the battle fields as well.

Now comes the Telengana part of our story.

It might have failed to come to the radar of ordinary newspaper reader because of its sheer ordinary sheen.Some days ago the Election Commision of India had quietly announced the Biennial Election of the Legislative Councils Andhra Pradesh and Telengana Assemblies for the members retiring on the 29th of March 2019.

Now,we have another new date,namely,the 29th March 2019.

So,what to make of our two dates--the 29th March and the 26th of April?

To my mind,they point to either 2nd or 3rd of April 2019.

[I think it is quite confusing for anybody in figuring out how I come to the above two numbers.I should spell out what;s there in my mind while arriving at them.It's quite simple.I wrote down the numbers between 29 end 26 ie 29,28,27,26.Firstly,the difference between 29 and 26 is 2.Secondly,if we think of travelling from 29 to 26,it would take 3 places to reach the goal.We may well get the two  numbers 2 and 3 but should we arbitrarily attach the month 'April' to them?I barely think along that line and,to be honest,when I first read Samsung Galaxy Fold news,something inside me told me that there were more in the story than met the eyes--there seemed to be some coded messages in them.Besides that(and more importantly for the way of arriving at the said numbers),we are made to travel from 29 to 26 and that should mean travelling from March to April]

That throws us right into the middle of a big riddle.We can think that 2nd symbolizes the date of partition of Andhra Pradesh(creating Telengana).The 3rd,of course,the signing of the Framework Agreement.If one has to choose between 2nd and 3rd as the date of announcement of the final settlement of Naga Peace Talk.which one is more proper?2nd would definitely symbolize the partition of Manipur.3rd would symbolize the historic stature of the signing of the Framework Agreement.Anybody would be hard pressed to make the agonizing choice.

But,in the context of the 2nd War of Kurukshetra,the Framework Agreement does not count.So,3rd is definitely out.They would be delighted to make the announcement on the 2nd of April 2019.But any descendant of Chanakya worth his salt would never present himself in the world as that brazen.

So,what's likely in their mind?

We can go to an altogether different plane of reasoning.We can safely see ourselves as being presented with 2nd and 3rd of any measurable unit.Now,we can ask ourselves--what's missing in the game?

Of course,the 1st!!

So,would they make the announcement of the final settlement of the Indo-Naga Peace Talk on the 1st of April 2019?

Of course,everybody knows that 1st of April is the Fool's Day.


UPDATE-5
30-03-19
3.05 pm


Imagine introducing your debut product in the market on an April Fool Day!

Yes,a debut product--that too,the one which is supposed to lead the pioneering journey into the world of spatial computing.

We are talking about the spatial computing pioneer,Magic Leap.

(As we are traversing through the numerous updates of this post it should be clear to all that they are playing to the hilt the narrative of the West's technology superiority as exemplified by their tech companies like Samsung.They are playing the game in a playing field populated by Chinese upstarts--doing this,they intend to magnify manifold the visibility of their superiority.At the moment,Magic Leap faces no competition from Chinese tech companies,though Huawei is supposed to come out with their own spatial computing device in this current year.So,in the context of our story,Magic Leap is the poster boy of the West.Personally,I'm excited about the doses of spatial computing hours in my daily computing needs.I'll grab a spatial computing device when the manufacturers achieve a certain level of economies of scale providing common users, like me, an affordable price point).

Magic Leap is introducing their spatial computing device,Magic Leap One to the market on the 1st April 2019.They are stocking the device in another store in second location on the 3rd,then in yet another store on the 6th April.

We should remember here that we are in the business of collecting dates to see if there is any pattern developing amonst them!

So,here we are--1st,3rd and 6th of April 2019.

Yet,we are not done with the task of collecting the dates!

On the 5th April,Samsung is releasing the 5G version of its flagship Galaxy S 10.

Most importantly,on the 25th March 2019,President of the USA,Mr Donald Trump proclaimed that Golan Heights would now be recognized as the rightful territory of Israel.(Golan Heights, a highland captured by Israel during the Sixth Day War,will now be treated by the US as the rightful territory of Israel.Would the fate of Golan Heights befall the highlands of Manipur in the near futures?).Is it a mere coincidence that Mr RN Ravi also landed in Dimapur on the 25th of March for further talks?

For our purpose,we now have final five number of dates--1st,3rd,5th,6th and 25th.

Now,let the game begin!

To my mind,when we talk of Magic Leap's numbers,namely,1,3 and 6,the unsaid items ,namely, 2,4 and 5 are also equally significant.How about making them to come to 22(5x4+2).Now,let's add the openly uttered numbers of dates,namely,3.Then,it comes to 25.

Surprisingly,Magic Leap's numbers suddenly come to that of Donald Trump's.

Surprise!Surprise!!

Let's have a good look at our newly derived number against the backdrop of yet another date--Samsung's date.Samsung's date is 5th April.

Is it 25th day of the 5th month of the year 2019?

So,we have the crucial date--25th May 2019.

We know that the counting of votes of India's parliamentary election begins on the 23rd May.They would have the full result latest by the 24th of May.That means they would have the latest mandate from the India's electorate on the 25th of May.

That would mean that the incumbent Prime Minister would resign if the verdict goes against him.Even if he gets the majority of parliamentary seats,it is a well-established convention to take the  government as a caretaker one and he has to tender his resignation to take the oath of prime minsitership for another term.

By the 25th of May,New Delhi would land in a situation whereby no political leader can take any executive or policy decision.

If the final settlement of the Naga Peace talk is announced on the 25th of May 2019,no political leader would be responsible for it.Only a bureaucrat,namely,Mr RN Ravi would be responsible for it.All the political leaders in New Delhi would say that the announcement of final settlement of the Naga Peace talk is the culmination of the due process of the slow grind of the bureaucratic machineries.We have to note here that,right at the moment,Mr RN Ravi is negotiating with the Nagas at a pace which is supposedly dictated by the Indian administration's bureaucratic sloth.

So,is it the 25th May 2019?


UPDATE-6
03-06-2019
2:41 pm

I'm not a constitutional expert.But the normal convention is that before the term of an outgoing parliament ends the incoming parliament should be constituted by appointing a protem speaker and then,the newly elected members of the parliament should be duly sworn in by the newly appointed protem  speaker.

The term of the outgoing parliament of India ended on the 2nd June 2019.

So,the question crops up--what is the legal status of the incoming Indian parliament?

More specifically,from the 3rd of June onwards until the 19th of June,when the protem speaker would be appointed,where does the incoming Indian parliament stand?

Can a council of ministers,headed by a prime minister,exist without the incoming parliament duly constituted and its newly elected members duly sworn in by the protem speaker?

To my mind,we are witnessing a bizarre scenario in New Delhi.

Coming to our point,we were betting that the final agreement of the India Government-NSCN(IM) talk might be announced on the 25th May 2019.The main crux of our assertion was that on the 25th of May there would be power vacuum during the transition of the outgoing and the incoming parliaments(my last update).We did have that power vacuum on the 25th of May but the anticipated announcement did not materialize.

But,now, we know that this question remains unanswered--is the parliament of India still in a transition mode?

Last,but not the least,we should not leave behind one important thing.On the 25th and 26th May 2019,the embassy of Tunisia suddenly thought it fit to showcase their cinemas in Imphal.

So,what about Tunisia?

Tunisia is a North African country comprising of 99% Sunni Muslim(and so,potential Wahabists).Despite that,it was the birthplace of 'Arab Spring'--the widespread 'uprisings' all over the Arab world.It all started with the self-immolation of a youngman whose pushcart(he sold stuffs in his pushcart to support his family) was confiscated by municipality officials of his town.

Arab Spring symbolizes 'uprising' just like our own uprising in the month of June 2001.

(I also think that we should not get distracted by a distant entity,like,Tunisia.We urgently need to size up what's currently happening neaer home.For example,we need think carefully over how the incoming Indian parliament is being convened right at the moment.It is being scheduled to start from the 17th of June,ie,just one day ahead of 18th of June.It is also ending its inaugural session on the 26th July ie, just one day ahead of the date on which the words 'without territorial limit' were deleted from the Bangkok Declaration .Doesn't the inaugural session of the latest edition of the Indian parliament also point to an 'uprising'?).


UPDATE-7
18-6-2019
2:46 pm.

Right at the moment,we are in the midst of a swirl of words of mouth and leaked news which say that the Citizenship Amendment Bill,2016 would be re-introduced in the parliament of India today,ie,the 18th of June 2019.

It does not matter whether the actual introduction of the Bill takes place on this day.

What matters us most is what lies behind it--the leaked news.To my mind,it is certain that the strategic thinkers in New Delhi are trying to invent another issue that rivals the likely upsurge in the agitation of the Manipuri people in the aftermath of the looming announcement of the final settlement of the Govt of India--NSCN(IM) peace talk.

So,what are the objectives of the strategic thinkers of New Delhi?

1)Foremost,they are trying to see if they can make a diversion in the minds of Manipuri people in response to the looming announcement of the final settlement of the Govt of India--NSCN(IM) peace talk.In other words,they want to examine the anatomy of an agitation of a society which is still pre-occupied with another(and,perhaps,rivalling) issue.What,form and,the degree of the agility, of an agitation in response to the looming announcement of the final settlement of the Govt of India--NSCN(IM) peace talk would present itself in this real world?

2)After studying the above anatomy of the agitation,the strategic thinkers in New Delhi want to experriment if they can sow the seed of a deep fissure right in the middle of the Manipuri society.

3)The strategic thinkers in New Delhi are aiming for an objective not less than the total destruction of the Manipuri Society,

In the meantime,the same set of people who together with the embassy of Tunisia showcased the cinema of Tunisia on the 25th and 26th of may were again on the game of showcasing another cinema on the 16th June 2019.This time the Italian film--Cinema paradiso.

We should not fail to notice the significance of the date.The parliament of India starts its session on the 17th June,just one day ahead of the 18th of June(My last update).Then,Cinema Paradiso came to Manipur on a date which is just one day ahead of the commencement of the session of the parliament of India.

So,I've been watching Cinema Paradiso(on YouTube) on a daily dose of 40 minutes per day for the last two days.It's perplexing how I come to this pass--I simply can't find time to watch a film at one go!How life changes!!

In one crucial scene of the film, the protagonist was seen crossing out dates on a calendar of circa 1954.He started the crossing out from the 15th of October until the 30th of December.

So,can we expect some important happenings from around the middle of October to the end of December this year?

Oh!I almost walk away forgetting the central theme of this update!!

Italy(whose film Cinema Paradiso is) is the place from where the present Western civilization as we know it emerges.

With Huawei issues entangling with the 2nd War of Kurukshetra,with the women power of Manipur and now ,with 18th of June,they are saying that the fight is between the West and the East.

West vs East.


UPDATE-8
24-7-2019
4:09 pm


It has been nearly 100 hrs and 5 days since the latest move on the chessboard by the strategic thinkers in New Delhi.

Yes,100 and 5!

This post of mine,together with the 8 updates,is the longest one of this blog.This longest post,together with the last two posts,deal with the symbolic numbers,100 and 5.Symbols that make us remember the epic war of Kurukshetra and make us further probe if there is a new War of Kurukshetra in the present time,that too,in front of our own eyes.

The latest move on the chessboard by New Delhi leaves entire Manipur flummoxed.In other words,the latesr incarnation of the numbers,100 and 5, is shining light on the agonizing moments in the intellectual and political spaces of Manipuri society,in not knowing what to make of the latest move by New Delhi and thus,in being clueless about the appropriate countermoves.

Incidentally,this collective agonizing moments intersect with that of the personal one of this blogger.

This blogger fancies himself to be an optimist.As an optimist,he always think we should face any emerging challenge,how-so-ever big it might be and how-so-ever creepily covert it might be.Despite being so,when he sees the entire spectrum of Manipur society entrapped inside the box of ages old feudal values,he agonizes at the scene to no end--his optimism nearly vanishing from this world.

Now,this blogger firmly wishes that these collective agonizing moments serve as the impetus for an inflection point for us (specially,our leaders)to jump out of the box of pettiness and feudal values.

Come out of the box,quickly.

How-so-ever agonizing these moments might be,we should not fail to note the drama that unfolded in front of our eyes just preceeding those moments.First,the Manipur Governor was despatched off to a vacation in the US.Immediately,the then Nagaland Governor was sworn in as the interim Governor.Then,the appointment of Mr RN Ravi as the Governor of Manipur was announced.The unfolding of the entire drama was concluded on the 20th of July 2019.

As with the symbolic numbers,100 and 5,the number 20 symbolizes the Manipuri Language Day,whose 28th edition would be celebrated on the 20th August 2019.

The push to amend the 8th Schedule of the Constitution of India,back in 1992,was powered by a huge force.Which constituent within our society represent this force?(We can definitely say the present day custodian of the Manipuri Language Day celebration,namely,the literary and cultural organiztions were not the actual power behind the force that initiated the agitations in 1992).Did the push to amend the 8th Schedule of the Constitution of India drag down the pace of the revolutionary'movement of Manipur? What is the present status of this particular constituent of our society?(Are they still gunning for more amendments to the Constitution of India?)Did this particular constituent infiltrate the mainstream 'revolutionary'movement of Manipur?

A new spectacular pattern we make out during the last few years is the assassination of the Vice Chairman of the oldest 'revolutionary' group by using chemical(in his food,obviuosly).We were all witness to a lots of bloodshed as the direct consequence of the presence of so many 'revolutionary' groups in our society.But we never did witness the use of chemical as a weapon of assssination--that's a new pattern.

Did the pattern-making use of chemical as the weapon of assassination mark the first publicly visible sign that there was a new entrant in 'revolutionary' scene of Manipur?

Were those new entrants the infiltrators?

Continuing on this theme,I also think the recent murder of Robert Naorem's mother was a chemically-induced one.Robert Naorem's father was made to strike the victim in a chemically-induced rage.(He probably did not have the intention to kill his wife--he was probably lost in the chemically-induced rage).I also believe that the real target was Robert Naorem himself--not his parents.It was a subtle and cruel move to 'socially'murder Robert Naorem.So,why was Robert Naorem  targeted?

Before trying to answer (we need to give a credible answer to support the assertion that the murder was chemically-induced) this question,we need to ask another volatile question.

Was the murder of little Babysana(of Thangmeiband) in her school hostel in Canchipur also a case of chemically-induced one?

We need to look out for one particular hostelmate of Babysana,who is a few years older to her and (most crucially) have a lesbian crush on Babysana.It stands to reason that little Babysana spurned those lesbian overtures--repeatedly.The killers have the intimate knowledge of those relations and cross-relations within hostel rooms.The killers fed the lesbo girl with chemical in her food.Just like Robert Naorem's father,this lesbo girl,in a chemically-induced rage,killed Babysana.

I strongly suspect that all these murders were carried out by this constituent within our society who had successfully infiltrated the mainstream 'revolutionary' movement of Manipur.To substantiate this assertion,we need to find a credible answer to the 'why' question.But,to do that, we need to go the
actual murder scene and launch a full scale investigation.To my mind,all of that are outside the purview of this blog.

So,by enacting the Governor-switching drama on a day symbolized by the number 20 New Delhi is winking at the this particular constitution within our society--come on board,let's make friend.

New Delhi is creepily right on target in identifying this constituent within our.Judging by the scale of news-making power they are presently unleashing,it is quite evident that this constituent is rapidly gaining more power within the 'revolutionary' movement and outside of that,witihn the larger spaces of  Manipuri society.

(One last thing,the recent deaths in Shihai Khullen,Ukhrul,presumbaly by ingesting wild mushroom was also the handiwork of this constituent of our society.Sometimes before the assassiantion of the Vice-Chairman of the oldest 'revolutionary' group of Manipur there was a death of a female singer in
Churachandpur,also, by virtue of the ingestion of a wild mushroom.Now,I suspect the death of the Churachandpur singer was the first foray of this constituent of our society in their long march of chemically-induced murders.The deaths at Shihai Khullen might be an indication of the things to come up in the near future--they might be planning to kill not only a female singer but also her entire family.I think we have duly been forewarned).


Oh!This update is turning itself into a longish one!!

We need to come to the crux of the matter quickly.

!)The framework Agreement between the Prime Minister of India and Mr Thuingalen Muivah of NSC(IM) is a fact of life--it exists.

2)Flowing down from this Framework Agreement,several new elements are discernible in the stream of events.Nagaland will be a State within the Union of India but with 'a little bit of difference'--like having a separate constitution,flag,coin etc.

From the above two statements,it is easy to deduce that the new Nagaland will also have a Governor with 'a little bit of difference'.

What might this 'little bit of difference 'come out in real-life form in the person of the future Governor of Nagaland,whose seat is presently occupied by the person none other than Mr RN Ravi?

1)It might be 'ceremonial'(just like,normal Governors of India's States being all ceremonial)

2)Now,we can make a match of the above in the form of a 'ceremonial' Pan Naga body.

3)What about making the 'ceremonial 'Governor of Nagalang the presiding officer of the equally 'ceremonial' Pan Naga body?

4)They would still say that all the real stuffs that matter stay within the confines of the present day territory of Nagaland.

5)They would again say that all that stuffs that identify the concept of Nagalim are all just 'ceremonial'.

How-so-ever 'ceremonial'all those stuffs might be,a very significant 'institutional seed 'of Nagalim would be firmly planted.Obviously,they are chasing a long-term goal.

At this very juncture,New Delhi is winking at the particular constituent within our society to brush aside any future Naga Peace Accord as of purely 'ceremonial'value and to focus,instead,on another rival issue,the Citizenship Amendment Bill(CAB).

The net result--the united and full force of the Manipuri society in confronting the final accord of the Naga Peace Settlement would be stymied.

Now is not the time to stay flummoxed.There is the critical need to jump out of the box of feudal values so as to enable ourselves to identify the vile constituent within our society which had successfully infiltrated the 'revolutionary' movement of Manipur and the equally vile overtures to this constituent from New Delhi.

Unless they attempt to quickly jump out of the box there is imminent danger of them being cast aside by the impact of the waves of geopolitical forces coming our way.

They are coming.(HINT:Rahul Gandhi-Imphal-Wayanad).
