Arambai Tenggol (AT) has strongly endorsed the recent remarks of Tamil Nadu Governor R.N. Ravi, who warned that the unchecked influx of illegal immigrants from Bangladesh and Myanmar posed a grave threat to India’s security and integrity.
The Governor had reportedly cautioned that the issue went far beyond people seeking livelihoods, describing it instead as a “strategic move” designed to destabilize the country and even attempt another partition.
AT echoed this concern, asserting that the ongoing Manipur crisis was a direct fallout of such infiltration.
According to AT, illegal settlers have been encroaching upon reserved forest areas, engaging in poppy cultivation, and aiding Kuki “narco-terrorists” demanding a separate state of Zalengam.
The group emphasized that these developments endangered not just Manipur’s demographic balance but also the sovereignty of the nation.
Reiterating its long-standing demand, AT urged the immediate implementation of the National Register of Citizens (NRC) in Manipur to identify and deport illegal immigrants.
It further pressed for stronger border fencing and tighter security measures to plug loopholes along the porous frontiers.
AT stated that Shri Ravi’s warning should serve as a wake-up call for both the government and the public, stressing that urgent action was needed to prevent further disintegration.
The group appealed for unity in safeguarding the nation’s integrity, saying Manipur’s security was inseparable from that of India as a whole.
