Recently, the Director General of Military Operations, Lt Gen Rajiv Ghai, paid a visit to Manipur with the aim of conducting a comprehensive review of the situation along the India-Myanmar border. This visit was crucial in gathering information about the current development status of border infrastructure in the state.
During his stay, Lt Gen Ghai had the opportunity to meet with the state Governor and senior officials for detailed discussions on the subject. The main focus of these discussions was on stabilizing the current security situation in the state, with a special emphasis on enhancing border management and strengthening security infrastructure along the India-Myanmar border.
The visit, which took place on February 24-25, was met with productive meetings with important figures such as the Governor of Manipur, Ajay Kumar Bhalla, the state security advisor, the chief secretary of Manipur, and the Director General of Police. Lt Gen Ghai did a thorough assessment of the security situation on the India-Myanmar border and also looked into various security-related activities in the state, particularly in the border areas. In addition, he closely examined the operational readiness of the Indian Army.
During his interactions, Lt General Ghai highlighted the government's "comprehensive approach" towards addressing these issues. It is worth noting that the Border Roads Organisation has played a significant role in building over 61,000 km of roads, more than 900 bridges, several tunnels, and many airfields in challenging conditions over the past six decades. This has not only benefited India's borders but also neighboring friendly countries like Bhutan, Myanmar, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan.
The visit of Lt General Ghai shed light on the collaborative approach between the military and state officials, with the common goal of implementing strategic initiatives for stability and the welfare of the people. Recently, there have been significant recoveries of arms, ammunition, and other materials from various districts of Manipur. These operations have resulted in the seizure of mortars, AK-47 rifles, pistols, hand grenades, explosives, and other weapons, along with a large quantity of ammunition and other equipment, from different parts of the state.
In conclusion, the visit of Lt General Ghai served as a vital step towards addressing the security concerns along the India-Myanmar border and ensuring the safety and well-being of the people of Manipur. The collaborative efforts between the military and state officials will continue to play a crucial role in achieving this goal.
