In the past few months, the government has asserted in unambiguous terms that the security situation in the country has undergone serious positive transformations. The last one in the series of its publications is the December 24 Report Card of the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA), titled, ‘Capacity to meet threat to internal security improved—Overall security situation remains under control’. The MHA insists that with a plethora of measures initiated by it during the past year, the country’s capacity to meet terror threats, arising internally as well as from across the border, has grown manifold. At the dawn of 2012, unless one is a serving government official or a loyalist of the ruling party, it is difficult to go along with such assessments.
The most obvious achievement that the government has attempted to flaunt is the declining terror incidents in the country. This is true across the board—for the Northeast, Kashmir as well as the Naxal-affected theatres. However, the fact remains that much of these improvements remain reversible.
The outbreak of peace in the Northeast region is, inarguably, a gift from Dhaka and certainly not the result of upgraded anti-terror capacities of the security forces stationed in the region. The Awami League government reversed the age-old practice of sheltering militants by arresting and handing over these insurgent leaders to India. While that has somewhat quietened the north-eastern part of the country, the task of transforming the ‘decline in violence scenario’ to one that guarantees durable peace has just began. It is very clear that India’s western neighbour will not repeat the gesture of Dhaka. And that would keep Kashmir potentially on the boil for foreseeable future, the current peace in the state notwithstanding.
MHA insists that Naxal violence has been “contained”. The reality, however, is violence has simply decreased to some extent. Naxal activity was reported from 194 districts in 2011. Night running of trains remains suspended in areas under Naxal control, development initiatives remain suspended and periodic bandh calls by the Naxals continue to paralyse lives. Moreover, the increase in the number of Jan Adalats, training camps as well as killing of police informers indicates that the extremists have tactically retreated into a capacity-building mode.
The other claim to fame for the government is the manpower increase among the Central police forces. There are certainly more security forces on the ground today compared to previous years. Recruitment to create additional battalions continues at a rapid pace. However, mere numbers are only a small part of the winning formula. The failed experiment of Operation Green Hunt is a stark reminder of the fact that the amassment of ill-motivated and insufficiently inclined forces alone does not guarantee victory.
Notwithstanding the so-called “impressive” record of the National Investigation Agency (NIA), the fact remains that since 2009 almost all the terror attacks in the country remain unsolved. This includes the four attacks that took place in 2011. The Intelligence Bureau (IB) has about 30 per cent vacancy among its field personnel. In the words of the retired Home Secretary, the personnel who have been recruited in the past couple of years would need at least two more years before starting to deliver.
Among the countless flip-flops on erecting an effective counter-terror architecture, one that would go down as the most incredulous is the National Counter Terrorism Centre (NCTC). One of the pet projects of the Home Minister, the NCTC had been highlighted as the end-all institution for preventing terror. After three years of prolonged wait, we know for sure that the NCTC being prepared for the country is not an organisation that fuses the counter-terror capacities of dissipated organisations in the entire country, but a parliamentary committee-type of toothless advisory organisation. Meanwhile, the fate of the National Intelligence Grid (NATGRID), even after its July 2011 “in-principle approval” by the Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS), still hangs in balance.
And add the continuing confusion and total lack of political unanimity on dealing with terror to overall state of affairs. And what we have is a completely different situation from what is being projected by the government. India’s ability to fight against terror is still in its infancy.

Manipur Information Centre
NEW DELHI , January 4
The visually beautiful production of Rabindranath Tagore’s highly symbolic play, ‘The King of Dark Chamber – ‘Raja’ directed by Ratan Thiyam of Chorus Repertory Theatre of Manipur will be the inaugural play of the 14th edition of the 15- day Bharat Rang Mahotsav, the largest theatre festival of Asia to be held in New Delhi at nine different venues namely Shri Ram Centre, LTG, Bahumukh, Sammukh, Kamani, Abhimanch, Meghdoot 1& 2, Meghdoot 3 and Abhilkalp from January 8 to 22.
As a tribute to Tagore on his 150th birth anniversary, the festival has a focus on his works with 14 productions and 4 Allied events among the 88 plays in the main repertoire and 11 Allied events. The festival will witness different productions of five theatre directors of Manipur.
Bharat Rang Mahotsav was introduced a decade ago by the National School of Drama to stimulate the growth and development of theatre across the country. Originally a national festival showcasing the work of the most creative theatre workers in India , it has evolved to international scope, hosting theatre companies from around the world.
At the forefront of the International section this year, the festival will have a focus on contemporary Polish Theatre with three very vibrant productions.
A series of wrap around programs around the festival includes a talk on interactive sessions with the directors, a seminar on “The multi-disciplinary approach of Tagore’s performance language” and five photographic exhibitions.
The 14th Mahotsav will include several national and international performances, and various associated events in a wrap-around program.
Bharat Rang Mahotsav is accompanied by a shorter festival in a second city, with selections from the main repertoire, extending the scope of the Mahotsav and sharing its plays with theatre lovers outside Delhi . This year it travels to Amritsar , Punjab . The second festival was held in Bengaluru, Kolkata, Mumbai, Lucknow , Bhopal and Chennai in the past editions.
Theatre doyen Ratan Thiyam’s The King of Dark Chamber- Raja in Manipuri will be staged on 8 January at 7 pm at Kamani Auditorium.
It’s a symbolic as well as allegorical play. It is not divided into acts and scenes. This play is a reflection of Tagore’s philosophy and the relation between individual and the universe.
The play evolves with the Queen Sudarshana’s search for Raja, who is invisible. As a result neither the queen nor the citizens of the state can see him. Some people, therefore, distrust if there is a king at all ! But they don’t know that God cannot be seen like any other earthly things. During her journey, Sudarshana is accompanied by Surangama and Thakur Da, who sings and communicates with the whole community in conveying the idea of Raja’s true self.
NSD Diploma production- “Mirage” scripted and directed by Loitongbam Paringanba, an NSD student from Manipur will be staged on 10 January at 8.30pm at Abhimanch. Paringanba is the son of noted theatre director Loitongbam Dorendro.
The play in Hindi is based on Dr. Saroj Bharadwaj’s translation of Kalidasa’s Ritusamhara. The play depicts the contemporary situation of Manipur. In a land where the dead bodies of young people who lose their lives in encounters, fake-encounters or counter insurgency operations are cremated under state authority as unclaimed bodies; and where the cry of bereaved mother’s adds fuel to the funeral pyres, the summer season’s warm heat loses its charm. In a land where the sound of blasting bombs has replaced thundering clouds, the season of rain has no story to tell. In a land where full moon nights are intercepted by search lights from army camps, the autumn season has a different tale to tell. When widows embrace the ice-cold bodies of their dead husbands, the beauty of the winter season is lost. Spring has lost its color as camouflaged army troops cover the land. Thirsty people traveling across the desert mistake a mirage for water.
Similarly, out of their sheer longing for peace and order, and to escape the horror of the present, people imagine that the colours they see are those of the year’s different seasons, as described by Kalidasa in Ritusamhara.
Loika Loikum directed by Goshe Meitei, a renowned balladeer of Manipur is a Manipuri folk play to be staged on 13 January at 6 pm at Bahumukh. The play is based on legendary Khamba Thoibi epic of Manipur.
Heisnam Tomba’s Hungry Stone, an adaptation from the story by Rabindranath Tagore will be staged on 14 January at 4.30pm at Shri Ram Centre. The play in Manipuri is weaved into a performance that raises poignant questions. A man purchases a Persian slave girl and gifts her against her will to the Badshah. The girl laments hysterically like a crazed woman. Does her lament signify personal disappointment or the yearnings of the entire female race?
Ningthouja Deepak’s Mythical Surrender written by Budha Chingtham, an eminent theatre critic of Manipur will be staged 17 January at 4.30pm at Sri Ram Centre. The Play bagged three awards namely Best Innovative Sound Design: Ningthouja Jayvidya, Best Original Script: Buddha Chingtham and Best Choreographer: Ningthouja Deepak in the Mahendra Excellence in Theatre Awards 2011 selected by the eminent jury members namely Anuradha Kapur, Arundhati Nag, Mahesh Elkunchwar, Neelam Mansingh and Utkarsh Mazumdar.The play in Manipuri is developed on the backdrop of military combing operations conducted as part of counter insurgency measures in the North Eastern region of the country. Using symbolic theatrical gestures and movements, the play depicts the pain, violence and cruelty inherent in the existing contemporary situation.
Ratan Thiyam’s Raja will also be the inaugural play of the 10-day Amritsar Festival beginning from 11 January at two different venues.
The play will be staged at Naatshala on 11 January at 7pm. Heisnam Tomba’s Hungry Stone will be performed on 16 January at the same venue. Two Manipuri plays were among 18 plays selected for the Amritsar Festival.
