Since December 2024, security forces have recorded the movement of around 42,000 Myanmar nationals into India through designated points along the 1,643-km Indo-Myanmar border, according to a statement by the Assam Rifles. These individuals generally take temporary shelter in the four northeastern states of Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur, Mizoram, and Nagaland before returning to Myanmar, in line with the provisions of the revised Free Movement Regime (FMR). The clarification came after a video of Assam Rifles Director General Lt. Gen. Vikas Lakhera’s speech at Manipur University circulated online, shared by former CM N. Biren Singh, claiming 42,000 “outsiders” had entered Manipur. The Assam Rifles emphasized that the remarks were being misinterpreted.
