Imphal, November 13 2011: While alleging the NSCN-K and NSCN-IM indulging in factional clashes and many unlawful activities in Changlang and Tirap districts in Arunachal Pradesh, the Janjati Dharm Sanskriti Suraksha Manch appealed to the Prime Minister of India to initiate full scale army operation against the two UG groups in the two districts.

In a memorandum submitted to the Prime Minister, the forum stated "the NSCN (K) and NSCN (IM) have been pro-active in Changlang and Tirap districts of Arunachal Pradesh.

Both the districts have witnessed factional clashes, killings, kidnappings, extortions and forced conversions to Christianity at gun point" .

"In January 1999, Gegong Apang Ministry was overthrown by NSCN (K) terrorists and Mukut Mithi govt.was installed who soft-pedalled in favour of Church conspiracy and conversion crusade under protective cover provided by NSCN (K).

The Church was angry on Gegong Apang for passing Freedom of Religion Bill 1978.The Baptist Church is over-active in Arunachal Pradesh more so in Changlang and Tirap districts with the help of NSCN (IM), NSCN (K), Nagaland Baptist Council of Churches (NBCC) and fanatic Naga political leaders.

They have planned to forcibly annex both the districts in Greater Nagaland" the memorandum added.

It further added that NSCN (K) supremo SS Khaplang on March 7 this year warned the ministers and legislators of Changlang and Tirap districts of "dire consequences" if they did not withdraw their support to Dorjee Khandu Government by March 10, 2011 accusing Dorjee Khandu of being the "killer" of Naga people of Changlang and Tirap districts.

The Nagaland Baptist Council of Churches (NBCC) and Miao Bishop House were reportedly monitoring this game, it alleged.

Moreover, the outfit has been threatening Central Rongfra Administrative Council (CRAC) of Tirap and Changlang districts and followers of Rongfra religion to stop all the socio-cultural and Rongfra promotion activities of Rangsohom (Rongfra mandir) of Kothum village of Tirap district including Lazu circle and whole of Changlang district, it mentioned.

Harassment and extortion was meted out also for civil society's refusal to convert to Christianity and Rongfra people's strong opposition to proposed integration plan hatched by NSCN (K), NSCN (IM) and Church of both the districts of Changlang and Tirap into Nagalim (Greater Nagaland), the memorandum stated.

It further alleged that NSCN-IM forced villagers of all the 12 villages of Tikhak community in Putok I, Putok II, Putok III, Motongsa, Longchong and other seven surrounding villages and threatened all the followers of Buddhism to convert into Christianity if they do not want to face dire consequences.

"The nexus between Church and Naga terrorist organizations are no secret.

The scores of international Church organization are backing terrorism and separatist movements in Northeast Bharatvarsh.

The Church sponsored organizations are reportedly providing funds, arms and ammunition with aim of creating separate Christian country in Northeast region and Nagaland is the epicentre of this movement.

The priests, pastors and Church leaders act as spy against the country" the memorandum stated.

Citing the insecurity facing by the people of the two districts, the forum requested to the Prime Minister to give free hand to the security forces to operate in the area, discipline the anti-social and anti-national elements and restore peace and prosperity in the area.
