Imphal, Jan 11: Assam Rifles in Manipur have carried out recruitment in two centres namely Keithelmanbi and Pallel under the new system of recruitment through SSC in the year 2012, unlike in other NE States except Assam where only one centre was nominated. These efforts were made to offer maximum opportunities to the eligible youths from different areas of Manipur to get recruited. The statistics shows that for rally at Pallel and Keithelmanbi 2050 call letters were issued and 850 passed the final test and basic initial criteria out of which 600 youth finally got enrolled based on authorised vacancy.

Well, till today so many surrender have taken place, surrendering of UG cadres before the AR, Army, CRPF and CM/DGP too. In none of the cases any one ‘not belonging to a particular group’ has surrender. Before surrendering, their antecedents are verified and the state ensure any ambiguity. Many a times cases have come to light that young boys group of two to 5-7 were intercepted at IB with their guides detailed and UG groups crossing over to Myanmar for recruitment and were handed over to police and in some cases direct to the parents through Meira Paibies and other social organisation. But this particular media flashing without proper investigation into the issue has been done which not only casts slur on the good work Assam Rifles is engaged in, creates bad impression which goes in favour of the UG organisation and intents to in-balance smooth relation with civil administration too without much of gain.
