Naga insurgent group NSCN-K has stationed small groups of its cadres at various strategic locations in Nagaland and Arunachal Pradesh, Rajya Sabha was informed today.
"Most of these groups have sneaked into Indian territory from across the Indo-Myanmar border," Minister of State for Home Kiren Rijiju said in reply to a written question.
Rijiju said the central government is maintaining close and continuous coordination with the states.
Efforts of the state governments, which are primarily responsible for ensuring public order and security in these areas, are supplemented by the central government through various measures such as deployment of additional central forces, he said.
NSCN-K was responsible for the killing of 18 Indian army soldiers in Manipur's Chandel district last month. After the incident, Indian Army commandos carried out strike on the camps of militants inside Myanmar.
