GUWAHATI: Manipur CM N Biren Singh's office has forwarded to cops a purported intelligence alert about influx of 900-odd tribal militants from Myanmar - all newly trained in use of drones, projectiles and missiles as part of a mission to launch coordinated attacks on villages in the Imphal valley around September 28.

India's northeastern state of Manipur has been placed on high alert after intelligence reports of a potential influx of 900 suspected Kuki militants from Myanmar, a senior security official said on Friday.

A collective of Kuki tribal groups in Manipur dismissed the government's alert about the influx of militants from Myanmar as "preposterous" and an attempt to perpetuate biassed ethno-centric narrative.
