A costly peace deal

With the signing of a peace agreement between GOI and NSCN (IM) on August 3, 2015, an atmosphere of uncertainty and apprehension is looming over Assam, Arunachal and Manipur in particular. One party is very much joyful regarding the ending of a decade long political talk; however the neighbouring states are quite nervous that the agreement will be harmful to their territory and political interests. So far, as seen from the apprehension of many state governments and CSO’s, the peace agreement is proving to be more exciting than expected and planned. Before the full-fledged agreement ever sees light, a cloud of fear, distrust is already alarming many. It will be doubtful to decide how much the agreement will be harmful or not in terms of safeguarding state interests and values of those that may be presumed fragmented.
