Nearly 50 people die annually in Mizoram due to drugs: Official
Digital Desk | Aizawl, Oct 16 (IANS) An average of around 50 people die every year in Mizoram due to drug-related causes, with a total of 2,051 deaths recorded between 1984 and October 7 this year, officials said on Friday. Mizoram Excise and Narcotics Department (END) Joint Commissioner, Peter Zohmingthanga, while addressing a drug abuse prevention awareness campaign organised in collaboration with the Mizoram Building and Other Construction Workers Welfare Board (MBOCWWB), highlighted the prevalence of drug abuse in the state and its harmful consequences. He stated that, from 1984 to October 7, 2026, a total of 2,051 people had died due to drug-related causes in Mizoram, comprising 1,799 males and 252 females. He also referred to the Survey Report on Drugs and Children in Mizoram 2022, which indicated that middle school students in the 10-14 age group in the state had already started using cannabis (ganja), highlighting the need for early intervention and awareness among children and adolescents. Highlighting the initiatives undertaken by the state government and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) to combat drug abuse, Zohmingthanga explained the various steps students could take individually to stay away from drugs and contribute towards building a drug-free society. Addressing the event, Mizoram Excise and Narcotics Department Minister Lalnghinglova Hmar said that one of the major reasons behind the prevalence of drug abuse was the high demand for and consumption of drugs. He remarked that although Assam had previously served as a route for drug trafficking, its people had generally not been inclined towards drug use. The Minister particularly urged the students of Government Champhai College to stay completely away from drug abuse and lead a healthy life free from addiction. North Eastern Council (NEC) Secretary, Satinder Kumar Bhalla, praised the Mizo tradition of tlawmngaihna (volunteerism and selfless community service)', describing it as exemplary and commendable. Referring to the serious drug-related challenges faced by his home state of Punjab, Bhalla emphasised that for India to become a developed nation by 2047, people must give up drugs and other harmful practices and channel their thoughts, energy and abilities towards national development. He encouraged students to acquire skills that would enable them not only to earn a livelihood for themselves but also to create employment opportunities for others, thereby contributing to the country's economic growth. Mizoram and Manipur have emerged as major drug-trafficking corridors in the Northeast because of their long and porous International Borders with Myanmar and their proximity to the Golden Triangle, one of the world's major illicit narcotics-producing regions. The Golden Triangle, comprising parts of Myanmar, Laos and Thailand, has long been associated with the illicit production and trafficking of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances. The region's proximity to India's Northeastern states has posed persistent challenges for security forces and drug enforcement agencies working to curb the cross-border smuggling of narcotics. Six districts of Mizoram and five districts of Manipur share a 910-km-long International Border with Myanmar, much of which remains unfenced, making the region vulnerable to cross-border smuggling and other illegal activities involving narcotics and contraband goods. The substances and items trafficked across the region include highly addictive methamphetamine tablets, heroin, foreign-made cigarettes, fertilisers and other contraband products.

Kuki woman killed, two civilians missing after suspected militant ambush in Manipur
Digital Desk | Imphal, Oct 15 (IANS) A middle-aged Kuki tribal woman was killed and two other civilians went missing after suspected militants ambushed two motorcycles in Manipur's Kamjong district on Thursday evening, officials said. A police official, quoting local villagers, said that four civilians travelling on two motorcycles to Phaikoh to purchase essential commodities were ambushed between Phaikoh and Molvailup. The woman, identified as Hatneimkim Haokip, died on the spot, while her husband escaped unhurt, the official added. The two other civilians remain missing, and their whereabouts are unknown. Security personnel, along with villagers, have launched search operations to trace the missing persons. Various organisations, including the Kuki Inpi Manipur (KIM), have strongly condemned the killing. In a statement, KIM Secretary for Information and Publicity Janghaolun Haokip accused the National Socialist Council of Nagalim (Isak-Muivah) of carrying out the attack and alleged that the outfit had repeatedly targeted defenceless civilians, particularly women and children. Describing the incident as a grave violation of humanitarian principles, he said that the alleged attacks on vulnerable civilians and villagers were unacceptable and must be condemned in the strongest possible terms. The KIM also held the state and Central governments responsible for what it described as a breakdown of law and order that had allowed insurgent groups to operate with impunity. Accusing the authorities of indecision and failure to take decisive action, Haokip demanded an immediate and comprehensive security operation to identify and apprehend those responsible for Haokip's killing and trace the two missing civilians. He said that mere assurances were no longer sufficient and called for concrete action to ensure the safety of civilians and bring the perpetrators to justice. The KIM expressed condolences to the bereaved family and said that the organisation stood in solidarity with them during their hour of grief. It warned that failure to take immediate and tangible steps to bring the perpetrators to justice, locate the missing civilians and ensure the protection of innocent people could lead to public unrest and further escalation of tensions.

Spear Corps Commander visits Assam Rifles in Manipur
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Oct 15 (IANS) Lt Gen Girish Kalia, general officer commanding (GOC), Spear Corps, visited a forward post of the Assam Rifles in Manipur on Thursday and reviewed the prevailing security situation in the area. He was briefed by local commanders on the operational preparedness of the troops manning the porous India-Myanmar border. India shares a 1,643 km long border with Myanmar. Of this, 398 km are in Manipur. Fencing of the border has started, and nearly 55 km has been completed in Manipur. The government plans to complete the fencing by 2028. However, there are challenges that authorities are facing during the fencing work. Terrain is an issue. Several stretches along the border are hilly and forested. There is also resistance from militant outfits that use the border to move between the two countries. An Assam Rifles patrol was recently ambushed at a spot where fencing work is underway in the Changlang district of Arunachal Pradesh. A soldier lost his life in the attack. There have been attacks on the Assam Rifles in Manipur as well. In July this year, two soldiers were killed after a convoy was struck by an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) in the Ukhrul district. This happened close to the India-Myanmar border as well. The GOC's visit comes at a time when the valley-based Meiteis are continuing to demand the ouster of the Assam Rifles from the state, accusing the force of favouritism towards the hill-based Kuki-Zo community. They have also claimed that the Assam Rifles failed to manage the ethnic conflict effectively. Even the Nagas in the state have raised their voices against the Assam Rifles in recent times after clashes broke out with the Kukis. On October 15, 2026, even when Lt Gen Kalia was visiting Manipur, Leishiyo Keishing, the Naga People's Front MLA from Phungyar, accused the 11 Assam Rifles of dereliction of duty. He, along with a team, was returning to Imphal after a tour of border areas when residents of Chassad allegedly blocked public movement, leaving nearly 20 vehicles, including his convoy, stranded for nearly two hours. This happened at the Kamjong market, where residents blocked roads at two locations using stones and other large objects. The blockade was lifted after the intervention of Kamjong Police, Border Security Force (BSF) and Indian Reserve Battalion (IRB) personnel. A Casspir armoured vehicle was deployed to clear the obstructions. After crossing Chassad, Keishing alleged that Assam Rifles personnel had failed to intervene despite their responsibility to protect border residents and maintain security. He also accused the force of focusing on business activities instead of its assigned duties. Over the last few days, the Assam Rifles has made attempts to reach out to both Naga and Kuki community leaders to ease tensions between the two communities.

Digital Desk | Imphal, Oct 14 (IANS) Manipur Chief Minister Yumnam Khemchand Singh on Wednesday called for collective efforts to restore peace and strengthen unity among the states diverse communities, stressing that mutual understanding and a shared commitment to work together were essential for the states progress. The Chief Minister was speaking at the Seva Sankalp Abhiyan programme held at Chumthang Shanapung under the Naoriya Pakhanglakpa Assembly constituency in Imphal West district. The month-long Seva Sankalp Abhiyan is being organised to mark 25 years of Prime Minister Narendra Modis public service and leadership. Khemchand Singh observed that despite expressing love for Manipur, some people remained unwilling to go beyond the valley region and embrace all communities. He emphasised that Manipur, home to 36 communities, needed leaders capable of bringing people together and fostering unity. Speaking on Indias economic progress, the Chief Minister stated that the country had been progressing towards becoming one of the worlds fastest-growing economies since Narendra Modi became Prime Minister. He noted that India had entered the top four economies globally in terms of economic growth. Referring to the vision of Viksit Bharat 2047, Khemchand Singh stated that as India moves towards becoming a developed nation, the people of Manipur must also contribute meaningfully to achieving this national goal. He stressed that efforts to restore peace in the State must be pursued collectively, with all sections of society working together towards this objective. Citing Singapore as an example, the Chief Minister said that while there were valuable lessons to be learnt from the experiences of other countries, people must also be willing to learn, work hard and bring about positive changes in their own society. Highlighting the development of Naoriya Pakhanglakpa Assembly Constituency, he stated that roads in the constituency were now being constructed using the rigid pavement system, although the construction process required considerable time. As part of the Seva Sankalp Abhiyan, outreach camps were organised by 42 different government departments, enabling people to access government services, obtain information and avail themselves of various welfare schemes.

Assam Rifles seizes contraband worth Rs 6.19 crore in Mizoram, six held
Digital Desk | Aizawl, Oct 14 (IANS) The Assam Rifles, in coordination with other law enforcement agencies, has seized highly addictive methamphetamine tablets, foreign-made cigarettes and illegally transported urea fertiliser worth around Rs 6.19 crore in three separate operations in Mizoram and arrested six smugglers and drug peddlers, officials said on Wednesday. A defence spokesman said that, acting on specific intelligence inputs regarding the smuggling of contraband items, the Assam Rifles launched an operation in the Khawlailung area under Serchhip district on Tuesday night. During the operation, the Assam Rifles recovered 226 cases of smuggled foreign-origin cigarettes, with an estimated market value of approximately Rs 5.42 crore. Three suspected smugglers were also apprehended during the operation. The seized cigarettes and the apprehended individuals were subsequently handed over to the Legal Metrology Department in Serchhip for further investigation and necessary legal proceedings. In the second operation, the Assam Rifles, in a joint operation with the Mizoram Police, apprehended two women, including one Myanmar national, and seized 950 grams of methamphetamine, comprising 9,200 tablets, worth approximately Rs 76 lakh at Ramhlun South in Aizawl. The apprehended women, along with the seized narcotics, were formally handed over to Bawngkawn Police Station for further legal proceedings under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, 1985. In the third operation, the Assam Rifles, acting on specific intelligence inputs received from its own sources, launched an operation in the Ngopa area of Saitual district. During the operation, the Assam Rifles personnel recovered 109 bags of illegally transported urea fertiliser, valued at approximately Rs 98,000. The operation also resulted in the apprehension of one person and the seizure of a vehicle allegedly used to transport the fertiliser. The recovered fertiliser, the seized vehicle and the apprehended individual were subsequently handed over to the District Agriculture Officer in Saitual for further legal proceedings under the applicable provisions of law. According to an Assam Rifles statement, the seizures reflect the force's continued commitment, in coordination with civil agencies, to curbing illegal smuggling activities and ensuring the safety and security of the border population in Mizoram. The coordinated operations are part of the ongoing efforts by security forces and law enforcement agencies to check the smuggling of narcotics and other contraband items in the northeastern region, particularly in areas vulnerable to cross-border illegal trade. Mizoram and Manipur have emerged as major drug-trafficking corridors in the Northeast because of their long and porous international borders with Myanmar and their proximity to the Golden Triangle, one of the world's major illicit narcotics-producing regions. The Golden Triangle, comprising parts of Myanmar, Laos and Thailand, has long been associated with the illicit production and trafficking of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances. The region's proximity to India's Northeastern states has posed persistent challenges for security forces and drug enforcement agencies. Six districts of Mizoram and five districts of Manipur share around 910 km of international border with Myanmar, much of which remains unfenced, making the region vulnerable to cross-border smuggling of narcotics, cigarettes, fertiliser and other contraband items.

Digital Desk | Guwahati, Oct 12 (IANS) The Northeast Frontier Railway (NFR) unloaded 1,094 freight rakes across its zone in September 2026, ensuring the supply of essential commodities and industrial goods to the Northeastern states and strengthening regional supply chains, officials said on Monday. According to NFRs Chief Public Relations Officer (CPRO) Kapinjal Kishore Sharma, food grains, food-grade items, fertilisers, sugar, coal, salt, tank wagons and other commodities were handled at various goods sheds across the zone during the month, facilitating their timely distribution and supporting economic activities. Assam accounted for the highest number of unloaded freight rakes at 585, highlighting the crucial role of the Railways in meeting the requirements of public distribution systems, industries and consumers, he said. Sharma said that during September, 102 freight rakes were unloaded in Tripura, 28 in Manipur, 15 in Nagaland, six in Arunachal Pradesh and five in Mizoram. Outside the mountainous Northeastern states, West Bengal recorded the unloading of 208 freight rakes, while Bihar accounted for 145, further strengthening trade connectivity and regional supply chains, he stated. The CPRO said that for NFR, the uninterrupted movement of essential and other commodities was vital for meeting daily requirements and supporting industrial and commercial activities across the region. He added that regular monitoring at various levels had helped reduce turnaround time and improve unloading efficiency, contributing to the smooth handling and distribution of goods. The freight operations underline the Railways' role in supplying essential commodities to the Northeast, where rail connectivity remains important for transporting goods from other parts of the country, the NFR official said. The Northeast Frontier Railway (NFR), headquartered at Maligaon near Guwahati, operates across the Northeastern states as well as in seven districts of West Bengal and five districts of north Bihar.
JNU sexual harassment case: BJP seeks action against Congress MP, stages protests across Gujarat
Digital Desk | Ahmedabad, Oct 12 (IANS) The BJP's women's wing staged protests across Gujarat on Monday, demanding action against Congress MP Angomcha Bimol Akoijam over allegations of sexual harassment involving female students at Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), days after the university dismissed him from his position as a professor and Delhi Police registered an FIR against him. The protests, organised by the state BJP Mahila Morcha, were held across all districts and major cities of the state. Women party workers, office-bearers, women legislators and local leaders participated in sit-ins and demonstrations, accusing the Congress leadership of remaining silent on the allegations. The protesters raised slogans against the Congress and its senior leadership, demanded strict action against Akoijam and called for his immediate expulsion from the party, according to party leaders. The party accused the Congress of maintaining double standards on women's safety and dignity, arguing that its public claims on women's rights were inconsistent with its response to allegations against one of its own MPs. Women's safety should not be confined to political speeches and election campaigns, the leaders said. The protests came amid a widening controversy over the allegations against Akoijam, who represents the Inner Manipur constituency in the Lok Sabha and was a professor at JNU's Centre for the Study of Social Systems. JNU dismissed Akoijam with immediate effect on October 9 following an inquiry by its internal committee into complaints of sexual harassment. Reports said 11 women students had complained against him. The committee's findings reportedly referred to a pattern of inappropriate personal interactions, sexually suggestive conduct and unwelcome physical contact. Delhi Police registered an FIR against Akoijam on October 11 at Vasant Kunj North police station, following a complaint by JNU's chief security officer. The complaint forwarded documents related to the university's internal inquiry and sought police action. The FIR invokes provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita relating to sexual harassment and acts intended to insult a woman's modesty. The investigation is under way. Akoijam has denied the allegations and described his dismissal as a witch hunt. He has questioned the university's handling of the inquiry and said he intended to challenge the decision through legal channels.
Ktaka: BJP Mahila Morcha stages protest, demands resignation of MP accused of sexual harassment
Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Oct 12 (IANS) Karnataka Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Mahila Morcha on Monday demanded the resignation of Member of Parliament Prof. Angomcha Bimol Akoijam, who is facing allegations of sexual harassment of female students. They also accused the Congress of supporting him despite his suspension by a Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) committee. During the protest in Bengaluru, the protesters raised slogans against the Congress national leadership, alleging that the party was protecting the accused. They held placards which read We condemn Rahul Gandhi who is playing drama of women security, Congress party is nursing lustful MP sacked by JNU. They also raised slogans against Rahul Gandhi, Sonia Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, accusing them of failing to stand up for the victims of sexual exploitation. BJP Mahila Morcha workers were detained and taken to an undisclosed location after they attempted to enter the Congress office forcibly. The Congress workers also chided the Karnataka Congress government for not being able to provide representation to women in the cabinet. Speaking to the media during a protest organised by the BJP Mahila Morcha outside the Congress office, BJP MLC Bharathi Shetty alleged that Akoijam was portraying himself as innocent while claiming that the allegations against him had not been proved. However, she claimed that he had been removed because the allegations against him had been established. She said the BJP strongly condemned the MP's alleged actions. Demanding punishment for Akoijam, Shetty said the BJP Mahila Morcha had organised a large-scale protest to press for action against him. She also questioned Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi over the alleged support extended to the MP. Priyanka Gandhi, where are you when such people are being supported? she asked. Accusing the Congress of standing by the MP, Shetty said the party had failed to uphold its principles in its actions and statements since Independence. She asserted that the BJP would stand with women who had faced injustice and reiterated her demand that the MP should resign over the allegations. Congress MP Angomcha Bimol Akoijam has been sacked by Jawaharlal Nehru University after finding him guilty of sexually harassing female students, a charge denied by the lawmaker. Akoijam, Lok Sabha MP from Manipur, was sacked by JNU last week after finding him guilty of sexually harassing female students, a charge denied by the lawmaker. The accused, a professor at the Centre for the Study of Social Systems under JNU's School of Social Sciences, was dismissed with immediate effect on October 9 following an inquiry into sexual harassment allegations against him. He allegedly asked the female students at JNU about their dating history. At least 11 female students had filed sexual harassment complaints against the professor in May this year. The complaints alleged that he invited students to his campus residence on the pretext of meetings or gatherings and attempted to sexually harass them. Some students had also alleged that he made obscene and inappropriate remarks in class.
