Today, the Amur falcon is the talk of the town. But one chapter of its story begins in mass slaughter; a reminder of the importance of community-driven conservation.
It wasn't the negotiations with Naga rebel leaders that marked the turning point for the state. It was the establishment of the Department of Development of North Eastern Region.
At reception organised by civil society organisations under aegis of United Naga Council, nearly a thousand supporters staged a musical performance for Muivah.
V S Atem, deputy of Thuingaleng Muivah, asserts peace can be made when two sides will put out their hand to shake with each other. Nagas are ready to live in peace, he adds.
Muivah said India has lost political will to implement in letter & spirit Amsterdam Joint Communique & Framework Agreement that recognise 'Nagalim’s sovereignty, national flag & constitution'.
Books like ‘The Collector’s Wife’ by Mitra Phukan may be fiction, but they document the region’s struggle through lived experiences, said policy analyst Sanjoy Hazarika at an IIC talk.

The Print would never report on the atrocious vandalism and attacks on Ramakrishna Mission school in Meghalaya by Christians. The Print’s north-eastern reporters would not write articles on it and brush it under the carpet as a minor incident – not worth taking note of.
Ms. Banerjie seems much interested in the affairs of the north-east. In that case, why does she not report on this incident? Also, she is from Kolkata, the spiritual home of the Ramakrishna Mission. One would expect her to report the truth and take a firm stance against the fanaticism of the various Christian churches operating in tribal majority states of the north-east.
It is such duplicity and hypocrisy which makes many people not subscribe to The Print. Under the guise of “un-hyphenated journalism”, this is just good old-fashioned secular-liberal cabal at work.
While the situation in Manipur is bad indeed, nothing is more alarming than the situation in West Bengal.
Under the TMC’s patronage, millions of illegal immigrants from Bangladesh have been provided with all kinds of official documents and allowed to settle down in India. West Bengal is witnessing a drastic change in it’s demography. It’s so severe that Ms. Mamata Banerjee may well be the last Hindu CM of Bengal.
