New Delhi: The Myanmar army on Friday handed over to India 22 insurgents from the North East, including self-styled home secretary of NDFB (S) Rajen Daimary, in a clandestine operation monitored by National Security Advisor Ajit Doval, officials said.
The insurgents were brought on a special aircraft and handed over to police forces in Manipur and Assam where they are wanted, they said. This is considered an “unprecedented diplomatic success” led by Doval who was carrying out deliberations with the Myanmar military resulting in the first such handover of insurgents by India’s eastern neighbour, they said.
