The Haunting of Indian Ocean Subcontinent ....


Few days back I read about the killing of 20 military personals by ULFA militants in the Manipur region. It really shook me to think how much risk the forces are living with, putting their lives at stake everyday to maintain order and peace in the region. Every moment they are living under the shadow of death hovering around in the jungles of north east.

They military vehicle was ambushed and  blown up using an RPG and when it was recovered, strangely  it was found that a US made Rocket launcher was used(and not a Chinese one !! ). It has become something like a routine for the security forces in the country to play hide and seek with the militants in different corners of the country, be it the north east, Kashmir, or the extremists infested eastern states. The military keeps fighting a never ending  war  with the enemies both domestic and foreign day in and day out, the rules of which are being set by the people sitting at the top who never get down to the warzone.

This entire scheme of things has spawned over decades of political interests and desire for power by creating independent states, never in any point of history such malevolent and narrow minded  intentions  has proved any good for either side whether its the center state or the rebels both sides have only suffered losses and setbacks.

The bigger question is who has funded and supported these battles of division and hatred !!, there has to be some one playing the big brother  out there that has been fuelling and refueling such conflicts in the region clearly its a power benefiting politically and gaining control  regionally and economically by triggering disturbances. India has one of the most porous border with her not so friendly neighbors Pakistan, China, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Nepal.
 Role of Pakistan in the innumerable  cross border infiltration does not need to written about whatever has been said and written about it will turn out to be an under statement. But China here is the one operating behind the curtain because the power hungry China will do anything, fall to any low to gain supremacy in the region. Time and again it has used its economic and military might to silent the protests made against its self centered and cheap  ways of sustaining super power status.

Not a long time ago Indian paramilitary crack Unit infiltrated into the border region of Myanmar  on the trail of those  ULFA militants  who has been hiding in the jungles of border villages after ambushing and killing the security forces convoy. . The special unit targeted 2 different camps on both sides of the border killed  a few and others escaped. It was ok till this, its something most of the special forces do this in different parts of the world, but then began the mayhem when the media, top officials, politicians started blowing this event out of proportions which was seriously unnecessary and  immature on their part . This also resulted in  the Myanmar authorities getting furious as they had given all possible support to the Indian forces
