Mizoram Chief Minister Zoramthanga has told Prime Minister Narendra Modi that India should play a vital role in bringing back peace in trouble-torn Myanmar, an official said on Thursday. The chief minister on Wednesday called on the prime minister in New Delhi and they discussed a wide range of issues, including the Myanmar political crisis, he said.
During the interaction, Zoramthanga told Modi that India must play a crucial role in restoring peace in Myanmar. The prime minister, on his part, said the Centre would make efforts to bring back peace in the neighbouring country, the official said. Over 30,000 Myanmarese have taken refugee in Mizoram since the Myanmar Army seized power by ousting the democratically elected government of Aung San Suu Kyi in February last year. The chief minister also urged Modi to take measures for shifting the Assam Rifles base from the heart of Aizawl to a designated camp at Zokhawsang, around 15 km from the state capital. He also requested Modi to appoint a Mizo IAS officer as the state's chief secretary, besides providing housing assistance to former insurgents of the Mizo National Front and waiving off loans amounting to Rs 18 crore extended to several beneficiaries under the Housing and Urban Development Corporation (HUDCO).
Meanwhile, an official statement said that Mizoram State Planning Board Vice Chairman H Rammawi, during a meeting with Smita Pant, Joint Secretary of the Ministry of External Affairs in New Delhi on Tuesday, said that the Mizoram government won't send back the Myanmarese refugees to their country till the Myanmar government gives an assurance of making arrangements for their security and rehabilitation. A majority of the refugees are lodged at relief camps, while some have rented houses and some live with their relatives in Mizoram. The refugees are being provided with food, clothing and other relief materials by the state government, NGOs, churches and village authorities. Mizoram shares a 510-km-long border with Myanmar and the northeastern state is already home to thousands of Myanmarese, mostly from Chin state. They have migrated to Mizoram since the late 1980s fleeing the military junta in the neighbouring country.

Kerala-based journalist Siddiqque Kappan, who was arrested in October 2020, was granted bail by the Supreme Court. Kappan had been arrested after the Hathras gang-rape case in which a 19-year-old Dalit woman was victimised drew outrage across the country. The UP police had arrested Kappan, along with three other people, alleging that they had plans to create tension in the area along caste lines and disrupt the law-and-order situation. The Supreme Court, while granting bail to Kappan, remarked that "every person has freedom of expression."
With regard to evidence that the UP police had presented to support their allegations, they had nothing of significance. The Supreme Court also pointed this out while granting the said bail. Kappan was charged under the draconian Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) for alleged terror funding, an act that has been used to jail and silence many activists, academics, and journalists across the country who have been raising their voice for justice.
Human rights organisation the National Confederation of Human Rights Organisations (NCHRO) welcomes the granting of bail to the Kerala journalist. At the same time, we would also like to point out this his very arrest in the first place was a grave injustice. The case made against him is completely fabricated, and he was targeted simply because he had intended to report on the heinous crime, and the UP government had been trying to either prevent it from being highlighted, or to airbrush the case. While we welcome the bail granted to Siddique Kappan and also lament the fact that he was incarcerated for two years in a fabricated case, we hereby also demand once again that all the political prisoners be released immediately. We urge all the other political organisations to come forward in demanding the same. The fascistic crackdown on activists, journalists, academics, and anyone raising their voice for justice will not be tolerated and will be challenged robustly.
