Today on the show, we have with us Col. Rajeev Bharwan, an accomplished, professionally trained & result-oriented Indian Army Colonel with 21 Years of progressive higher leadership & management skills while commanding the elite Infantry/ Strategic Specialized Airborne Regiment.
In this fantastic episode, we spoke about the vast on-hand experience of Col. Rajeev in Counter Terrorism, in combat zones in Assam, Manipur, Nagaland, and Jammu & Kashmir. One of my favourite podcasts of the year. In an age where American Marines and their British equivalents are celebrated all over the world, it is crucial that Indians get to know about our Commandos as well.
This video (and the podcast that it is derived from) aim to spread the word about the incredible Indian Special Forces.
Thank you to all our brave soldiers, for their contribution to India! Jai Hind!!!
In this clip, Col. Rajeev shares his experience of serving in Manipur.

Actually the main reason for insurgency in Manipur are as follows 1) India Completely ignored the state for many years after joining the Indian union in 1949. 2) Imagine getting downgraded from an ancient independent kingdom to a part-C state, administered by a commissioner. It got full statehood only in 1972. 3) RACISM faced by the people in mainland India. 4) Lack of development funds and connectivity, and some cases of human rights abuse by the security personnels. But the situation has completely changed now, the insurgency problem is slowly disappearing.

It was only after the Indo-China war of 1962 that the central government started taking the Northeast region seriously and only after the 90s or 2000s that the central government started paying attention to infrastructure development.

Instead share your ideas and opinions based on facts and help educate each other, because that is the main issue we are facing now. Ignorance.

[@Garfield619]

@@deepjyoti5640 Also, History. Our true heritage and history is not in any educational books. I learned about my people's history through my grandparents experience, my parents experience, my experience. Which board in the country have a single chapter of our history? During my highschool, not even my own state board had a chapter of our history because it can't compete with the rest of the country. Won't you call that discrimination over a whole group and heritage of people ? But that's besides my point. My point is, if he were to study "history" as you suggested, which book does he need to pick up ? What are the major subjects which he needs to take up which focuses on the NE history and struggles for him to be educated ? NE is a collection of 8 States, united and share alot of rich culture and loved and protected as sisters. But have their own individual heritage and history and beliefs. Ignoring that and clumping the 8 States as NE and only focusing on one State in this case, Manipur brings more questions than answers. To my understanding the original commenter meant to say was, if you want to talk about Manipur, talk about Manipur. But if you bring the whole of NE together, talk about all the whole of NE and not generalise an issue to be the same for each State. The same goes with belief and ideology. An Example, Mizoram was the first state in the World to be bombed by it's own country. Yes, NE but not the same history as Manipur or Nagaland or Assam, etc.

[@NingthoujamNelson]

1. Title should have been "Soldier's experience in Manipur". I think the period he is talking about here is late 90s and early 2000s and he was probably posted in valley region of Manipur(Because he mentioned Thabal Chongba, the dance). Also, experiences in valley and hilly areas might be completely different. 2. I think when he came to Manipur in this period, there had been recently the ban of Hindi movies in theaters. Before this, there were Hindi movies shown in theaters. (I heard stories of elder people talking about blockbusters like Sholay in Manipuri theaters) In my opinion, the ban was a good thing for Manipuri cinema because people started watching them instead of Hindi pictures which was dominating the cinemas. 3. He did not explain the REASON of insurgency in Manipur here. He was telling his experience. And about people feeling sense of "power" with guns on their hands, the issue or reason of this conflict is not that simple. Many insurgents joined these groups because of trauma of near ones died in this conflict or they were being tortured by the military. 4. More interesting questions should have been asked in this podcast. There was no need to sensationalize the story here. Col. Rajeev's life story is interesting and inspiring by itself.

[@Mr.BR15]

Even In the 90s , maximum indians don't even know NE india exist ( not to blame all ,because there were few who we're really good ) . We are talking about about educated Indians , forget about the rural Indian . When the militants were imposing banns here in NE , we were still hoisting India's flag and singing national anthem in our school during 15Aug and 26 Jan.. So tell everyone don't bullsh*t us about Nationalism .. You cannot blame and buly and harrased the entire population just because few 100 numbers of militants caused you trouble. The Indian army has caused tremendous harm and hatred and atrocities to the innocent civilian of NE using AFSPA which has caused the people to hate them and other Non-resident of NE specially the business class people who looted the innocent NE people through their business monopolistic character .

It’s not us it’s you considering Northeast as other part

[@Mia_Hopeless]

This is because Manipur was a sovereign Kingdom before India's independence and during the formation of the country, Manipur was initially not involved and was to remain as sovereign Kingdom. But was forced to join so that's why there are many rebellions because even after joining , we were not recognised enough and were treated horribly . There are many opinions about the kabaw valley (in modern day Myanmar) which belonged to Manipur and was exchanged by Jawaharlal Nehru for Andaman and Nicobar as it is historically more connected to India and will serve as better use . I don't know if this is true but this is what our elders has told us since we were young also ,this story has not been discussed or confirmed . Considering the current situation of 2023 , there are going to be more insurgents rising . Honestly, i don't want to support any of the insurgency or forcing a king to sign the merger agreement . Lastly, i think that I am happy in which country i belong to and proud to be Indian . Don't stereotype that all northeast Indians want to seperate away from India , that people are probably extremists and most of us are happy that we get to be an Indian.

[@aim.4503]

As a Meetei, I feel the comment about our animosity towards India because of a lack of awareness is caused by a lack of awareness about us as a whole. A lot of us don't give a shit about whether we are part of India or not. We just care about our state and people. When you consider the atrocities committed by the Indian army not only towards us, but the North-East as a whole, you can see why a lot of people would be angry. The forced implementations of Hindi also doesn't help. It was mandatory for upto the 8th standard, but now it's upto the 10th. Until and unless the govt accepts the fact that people don't want their language or culture to go away, insurgence will still be a thing.

Tamils dont know Hindi, is this strange? If Govt of India play with sentiments of local and keep avoiding and ignoring them, definitely differences will start pop out between govt and locals. Once independent kingdom, later joined to India as "ignored state", obviously locals feel insecure and get feeling of ignorance.And on top of that if govt uses forces to silent the voices and few security personnel uses ASFPA to rape women and kill innocent, it will be like pouring petrol on fire.

[@acceler8connections793]

The root cause I believe stems from the 'wrongful' annexation of Manipur into India. There are tons of articles on how Maharaja Bodhachandra was forced to sign the Instrument of Accession under pressure. I believe armed insurgency began in the late 60s Or early 70s when step motherly treatment was given to Manipur by New Delhi. In the early days their insurgency was supported by the masses because it was about freedom and self determination and it resonated with the people. These days the majority of people don't support these groups as today they have strayed from their path and started doing extortion, terrorism, kidnapping, gun and drug smuggling. I honestly think the Indian Army can flush these insurgents out but they won't cause they have a lot to benefit if insurgency flourish in Manipur.

The truth is never one sided. Unfortunately he didn't speak the truth here, truth by which I mean the absolute truth. Any kind of insurgency is a result of exploitation of the unaware that is true, but there has to be a certain % of lacking that these people have felt or still feel maybe that made them not associate themselves with India. Might be because of the Govt, who knows but just solely being unaware doesn't result in insurgency of this level. We should acknowledge that as well.

Respect for the officer , I am a Meitei . What sir had explained are the moments he had experienced not the reasons.

It extended to some part of Myanmar know as 'Kabaw Valley' and to west it was upto sylhet in Bangladesh . Cachar Assam in sometime was also under Manipur. After India annexed it shrink to the smallest possible area. Kabaw Valley was gifted to Myanmar by India. 2) Our king was forced to sign merger agreement in Shillong Meghalaya. And after that from a kingdom , it was given part - c status which we feel is a disrespect, until 1972 when Mp got statehood. 3) About ban on Hindi movie ,just like mainland Indian want to promote their Hindi movie ,south indian their South Movie ,We also want to grow our Manipuri Film and Drama industry which indeed had happen and many eminent artist of our had received national awards. 4)The negligence by Central govt. in undeniable though!Modi has been doing great, he can visit other countries, feel the pain of other country but not its own state. 5) There are deep proxy war waged against us ... incidents of Indian army war crime against civilians..

First of all, I would like to applaud the channel for at least making the effort to initiate conversation and chatter on such a controversial topic. However, like many people have mentioned, the title is very misleading. The North East is more than just Manipur and the Colonel here is only recounting his experience. His word based on his perspective as an armyman cannot and should not be accepted as the sole truth. Therefore, the 'reason' mentioned is unjustifiable. To the Colonel, I think he deserves some appreciation for trying to present the situations from three points of view. However, I do not agree with him that people are unaware and they are being manipulated into thinking a certain way. I think that is a very dismissive attitude which no one likes. Also, to just casually attribute militancy to young people wanting to hold guns and feel 'raw sense of power' is highly ignorant and dangerous. It might be true for some but the roots of underground militancy did not start that way. It would have been a good idea to try and talk about the origin of militancy based on informed research. By the way, this is not to mean I or everyone supports these militant groups. I don't. There must be and has to be better ways to reach an understanding. More importantly, a blanket comment saying people do not feel like a part of India should be followed with a very measured and clear explanation. His statement is true to some extent but there are also people like myself who would rather try to find an agreeable solution within the idea of a unified India.

From where I come from, ie. CCpur, one of the southern districts in Manipur, even a commandant/colonel would do about his usual business without any escort. And the same goes for all the jawans to the highest ranks. Irony is, if this kind of conduct esp. by higher ranking officers is reported to the concerned authorities, they could get chargesheet or serious chiding for breach of protocol.😂 That's how peaceful we are with any outsiders. And should anything bad happen today to them, which is very very rare, the civil organisations and everyone will come flock together to their cause. Eg. During the ambush and demise of Col. Tripathi of Assam Rifles and his entire family of a child and wife incl. 2 of his escort details (and several wounded), the villagers there rushed even before the firing subsided and aid the wounded soldiers while paying their homage to the deceased with their traditional shawl (the highest form of respect anyone can get) and rushed them to the nearest PHCs in the nearby village, while waiting and forming a human chain until backup arrives. [It is later learnt that the locals even alerted local insurgent groups concerned and the insurgents pursued the perpetrators far into the boundary of Myanmar.]

I think the Colonel didn't do his homework right. It ain't all about gaining power. But then it is expected of a soldier to follow orders rather than questioning the rationale behind it. The northeast is not homogeneous. They are several states locked together which gives the impression of being same. But believe me each has it's own culture and reasons for insurgency. Some states don't even experience it. There are two main groups Nationalists and Separatists which can be further divided into different factions . The cause for the Nationalists are checking immigration from nearby Bangladesh and to pressure the government to grant statehood for distinct tribes. They in no way wish to secede from the union but to make sure their communities thrive in India. And then there's the more radical one. The Separatists never wanted they became a part of India from day one. They are active in the far east . So far that somehow the Indian feeling doesn't resound with them. And I don't blame them. They have their roots in the Pacific from the likes of Borneo ,New Guinea and Phillipines. They have nothing to do with Prithviraj Chauhan or Muhammad Ghori. But the then government was hell bent on subjugating them. These revolutionaries are now being known as ‘insurgents’
