Today, when the international community mentions India, it is generally regarded as a national concept, but this is not the case. India is a concept of territory. Before the British colonists came to the South Asian subcontinent, India has always been divided into tribes and small states. Each tribe has its own unique beliefs and languages. There has never been a great unity. In 1947, Britain ended its colonial rule in India and divided it into India and Pakistan simply according to the beliefs of the local people. India has always regarded itself as the true master of the continent and wanted complete control over the land.

The six northeastern states of India include Mizoram, Assam, Nagaland, Manipur, Tripura, and Meghalaya. Although these six states are part of India, they are always incompatible with India.

For India, the six northeastern states are an endless cycle! Relevant Indian authorities have implemented various crackdowns on six states in the northeastern region in an attempt to bring them to their knees. People in the six northeastern states of India have always had a weak sense of identity and belonging to India. From an ethnic point of view, they prefer Southeast Asia rather than South Asia. Their language habits and living habits are very different from India. India's caste system clearly defines the class of all people, and it is unlikely that the class will be changed through acquired efforts. This has also created a clear gap between the rich and the poor in India. The people of the six northeastern states do not agree with this system. At the same time, they are regarded as the bottom class by the Indian people. India is also biased in its economic deployment, resulting in a very backward economic development in the six northeastern states. Over time, the estrangement between the six northeastern states and India has deepened. Due to the lack of recognition, India cannot implement unified management of the six northeastern states, and can only let them manage by themselves. This further exacerbated the conflict between the states. Rebel groups in the six northeastern states have emerged in an endless stream, and have been seeking true independence. Earlier, officials of the Indian military were ambushed when passing through the six northeastern states, and all relevant personnel, including their family members, were unfortunately killed. It can be seen from this that the contradiction between India and the six northeastern states is still very sharp.

In fact, the six northeastern states of India are geographically related to India. If the relevant Indian departments provide benign guidance, it is not impossible to complete the assimilation and integration. India chose the wrong approach from the start. India does not treat the 6 northeastern states equally in terms of economic development, and does not even really regard them as part of India. This way of handling deepened the rift between the two sides, shaking hands and becoming a bubble. It makes sense that people in the Northeast lack a sense of national belonging to India. It is true that the gap between cultural beliefs is difficult to solve in a short period of time, but India can take a different attitude towards the issue of the six northeastern states in order to ease the contradictions between them and be more tolerant and accepting of cultural customs that are different from the mainstream. , it can also improve the hostile attitude of the people in the six northeastern states.

There are historical reasons for this, and it has a lot to do with the way India rules over them: First, the six northeastern states are very different from the mainstream ethnic groups in India. In the six northeastern states of India, the main race is the yellow race. According to statistics, the yellow race accounts for as high as 80% in the six northeastern states. Tibetans from the north. In fact, these people belong to the Sino-Tibetan language family and have deep ties with the big countries in the north, which is also doomed to have huge differences between them and the native Indian in terms of language, skin color, culture, belief, etc.

As early as the 13th century, the Dai people in the northeastern part of Myanmar and the Yunnan area of China crossed the mountains and came to the Assam area, conquered the local tribes, ended the long-term war and established the Assam Kingdom. It can be seen that they do not belong to the country at all. India's sphere of influence. Only with the British colonial invasion, this area was also conquered by the British and was forcibly incorporated into the sphere of influence of British India. In 1947, after the "Partition of India and Pakistan", India demanded that this area be included in its territory, which also meant that the yellow people in the six northeastern states belonged to India's rule. In fact, this was not what these yellow people expected. , and their incompatibility with India also planted the seeds for the instability behind.

The reason why India forcibly incorporated the six northeastern states into its sphere of influence is that they are just coveting this land, because jute and other crops can be produced here. But didn't have any good feelings. Under the rule of India, the yellow people in the six northeastern states have been constantly marginalized, and it is all too common to be discriminated against by mainstream Indian society.

In itself, India has a hierarchical "caste system", which is also a bad habit that restricts India's development. According to this deep-rooted system, the yellow people in the six northeastern states basically belong to the bottom. Their inevitable encounters oppression and targeting. As a result, the conflicts and contradictions in the six northeastern states are inevitable. Since the independence of India, the six northeastern states have become the most intense places of ethnic and religious conflicts in India.

Second, India's rule over the six northeastern states is basically a laissez-faire attitude. Before the British landed on the South Asian subcontinent, India had never been able to conquer this place. In 1826, the British forced Burma to sign the "Yang Dabo Treaty", which announced the end of the 600-year rule of the Dai people in this place, and the British colonists became here. ruler. However, the British conquered this land, but they were worried about the management here, because the people of the six northeastern states would rather be close to Burma than to have more interaction with the Indians. Subsequently, the British adopted the policy of "separation by lines" and the system of "franchised passage in border areas" against the six states in the northeast, directly separating the tribesmen from the plains and the tribesmen of the mountains, and provoked ethnic groups through the strategy of "printing with seals". Infighting, and then completely isolating them from the main continent, the British will not care about the conflicts and contradictions in this area, they just need to plunder the resources here.

After India's independence, they also tried to strengthen the management here, but the reality has poured cold water on the Indian government. The contradictions and conflicts here are too prominent, and India is obviously unable to resist. Therefore, they continued the British rule and let them govern themselves, but after 1962, India's fear of the north made them extremely worried that the Siliguri Corridor would be cut off, so they strengthened the management of the six northeastern states, It's just that the armed forces of the six northeastern states have become extremely common at this time, and the conflict between the states has discouraged the Indian government, so India has adopted the most brutal method: let them fight, and the Indian government will balance in the middle! This management method will only make the six northeastern states more chaotic, and their tendency to separate from India will become more obvious!

Third, the six northeastern states face population pressure from Bangladesh. In 1971, India promoted the independence of East Pakistan, which is Bangladesh! In order to prevent the risk of the Siliguri Corridor, India forcibly annexed Sikkim in 1975, which made the weak Bangladesh feel a great threat. In order to avoid being annexed by India, Bangladesh adopted a "stupid method", that is to encourage Fertility. In the following decades, Bangladesh has been implementing the national policy of encouraging fertility, which has caused the rapid expansion of Bangladesh's population, which not only caused huge pressure on their own country, but also brought a burden to the six northeastern states of India.

As the population of Bangladesh is getting bigger and bigger, their limited territory can no longer satisfy the survival of the Bangladeshis, so Bangladeshis continue to cross the India-Bangladesh border and enter the six northeastern states. The influx of a large number of Bangladeshis into the six northeastern states will inevitably compress the living space of the local people in the six northeastern states, and the differences in their beliefs will lead to more conflicts. These factors further aggravate the conflict and division of the six northeastern states.

With the passage of time, the pressure faced by the six northeastern states has become more prominent, and India has little control over the six northeastern states, which directly leads to the intensification of the chaos in the six northeastern states.

In fact, the conflicts in the six northeastern states have become particularly prominent, and the scale of the conflicts has continued to expand.

Although they are both within the territorial scope of India, in fact, the six northeastern states run their own business entirely by themselves. For example, Mizoram and Assam also fought each other because of territorial disputes.

In July, Mizoram police directly called the "invaders" to shoot the Assam police, directly killing six Assam police and injuring about 80 officials and civilians. In this regard, Mibang, who took advantage of it, was particularly high-profile and directly humiliated Assam, causing the relationship between the two sides to deteriorate sharply. There is a tendency for the two sides to fight again. Under this situation, the anger between the two sides has been thoroughly stimulated, and then the Indian official mediation, but the two sides gave themselves a step down and temporarily subsided, but this is only in the short term. The contradiction between the two sides It has not been fundamentally solved, nor can it be solved. The Indian authorities have no way to eliminate the fundamental contradiction between the two states. This kind of ethnic problem is too common for India, but it is a deep-rooted crux of India.

In fact, the conflicts between the U.S. state and Assam state have been around for a long time, and after decades of accumulation, the conflicts have become irreconcilable.

Before 1987, Mibang was still a part of Assam. Even though Mizo people were dissatisfied with the social order dominated by Assamese, they did not show strong resistance, because at this time they relied on bamboo Industry and living conditions are OK.

However, in 1959, a sudden accident broke the tranquility of the life of the Mizo people. At that time, the bamboo blossoms caused the rats to multiply violently, the crops were eaten up, and the Mizo people's life immediately fell into disaster. As a result, they turned to the Assamese government for help, but they did not expect the Assamese government to be indifferent, causing many victims to starve to death or flee.

The actions of the Assamese government directly aroused the strong resistance of the Mizo people: Since you are unkind to me, don't blame me for being unjust. Immediately, the Mizo people directly united to form the "Mizo National Front", an independent armed organization. They entered the mountains and fought a guerrilla attack with the Assamese government. Even the Assamese government invited government troops, but they still failed. Defeat the Mizo assembly organization. The two sides have come and gone for twenty years. It can be said that the Mizo people at this time are incompatible with the Assamese government. They also know that there is no hope of following the Assamese government, but they themselves do not know when they will be the leader. After all, the Assamese government represents the It is the Indian government. Although the Mizo people are making a noise, their strength is still limited in the final analysis. If India is really determined to clean up, they will definitely not be able to persevere.

For the Indian government, the Mizo people can be noisy, but they cannot be noisy enough to break away from India. India will never accept this result. However, they felt that it was still very difficult to defeat the Mizo people's armed alliance. At this time, the Indian government began to adjust its strategy: since your armed alliance is difficult to deal with, it will target your common people. If the common people give in, then See how long these armed alliances can last!

Therefore, since 1967, India has launched operations against the mountainous areas of the Mizo people, directly forcing them to live together, and then burning down their village houses. Gather on the side of the road and send someone to watch. This measure of the Indian government directly cut off the way for the Mizo armed forces in the mountains and forests, which made the Mizo armed forces face unprecedented difficulties. Even in this environment, the Mizo armed forces did not compromise until 1986, and they accepted The condition is that they are separated from Assam, and they govern independently. This is the source of the Mi state, and it is also doomed to their fate of confrontation with Assam.

However, although the Indian government agreed to the separation of Mi State and Assam State, they kept a hand and did not make a specific division of the two states, nor a clear border line, and then the Mizo people gradually repaired the house to In Assam's sphere of influence, the two sides fought each other happily.

It can only be said that the Indian government has learned the essence of what the British did, that is, they want to use this small method to make them fight each other internally, and then the Indian government will play a mediating role, which can not only weaken each other's strength, but also let India The government is profitable, and this has continued to this day.

It's just that this kind of ethnic strife does not only happen in the United States, in fact, it happens all the time in Manipur, Nagaland, Assam, Tripura, and the internal disputes in the six northeastern states make them tired to cope. , the economic situation can be imagined! It is these internal disputes that make the six northeastern states always the poorest areas in India, and they have also drifted away from the mainstream of India.

And all this is not caused by the Indian government in the final analysis! I knew that the six northeastern states were still prosperous before they were merged into India, but after the merger, the Indian government never paid attention to infrastructure construction and never invested in the economy, which stimulated its internal contradictions to a certain extent. , which makes the six states in the northeast fall into an endless loop!

Of course, in India's view, the six northeastern states are just a barrier to the east, and India just needs this strategic role. As for the rest, it doesn't matter.

In fact, it is difficult for India to fundamentally solve the problem of the six northeastern states, which has also become a time bomb for India to face division.

After India became independent from the British colonists, they tried to exert the influence of the hegemon of the South Asian subcontinent, so they did everything possible to expand, so they annexed Sikkim, suppressed Nepal and Bhutan, fought with Pakistan over the Kashmir issue, and fought against Bangladesh. Stay intimidated! Moreover, they have been trying to strengthen the strategic depth in the north, trying to make China in the north make concessions, but they were wrong.

In 1962, India repeatedly invaded China. The Chinese government directly counterattacked after repeated warnings to it were invalid, and directly taught India a hard lesson. Indian President Nehru also died of depression. It can be said that China's strength also makes India extremely jealous. China's advantage in terrain has always made India uneasy, because China has always maintained a condescending posture, which is difficult for India to reverse.

As China becomes stronger, the gap between the strengths of the two sides has become more prominent, but China always does not want to use force to solve problems, so China has strengthened its cooperation with Pakistan, and asked Pakistan to contain India's main energy, and then strengthened its cooperation with Pakistan. Nepal's connection and assistance to Bangladesh, in this way, India is facing a situation of "4D printing", and India's poor diplomatic methods have also made this country encircle it! It is very difficult for India to break the game.

Coupled with the instability of the six northeastern states, India is also suffering from internal and external troubles. In fact, the six northeastern states are also very likely to become the fuse that India tends to split.

The connection between the six northeastern states and India is only a Siliguri corridor with a narrowest point of only 21 kilometers. It can be said that this is also the most sensitive place in India.

On the one hand, it is easy to cut off the Siliguri Corridor from the north! Since 1962, India has known that the biggest adversary it faces is China, and although they have always wanted to take the initiative, in fact they cannot compete with China at all! On the western front, India has been provocative, but on the eastern and central fronts, they dare not take too much risk, because once they provoke China, China has to take some measures, and India may not be able to bear the consequences! In particular, if India breaks up with China on the eastern front, then China can directly send troops to cut off the Siliguri Corridor. In this way, it is really difficult for India to break through the situation. Therefore, India is most worried about the fragile Siliguri Corridor, but they don't have many ways to solve it. This is India's helplessness!

On the other hand, once the Siliguri Corridor is cut off, it means that the six states in the northeast are completely out of control. The Siliguri Corridor is the throat connecting the six northeastern states in India. Once it is cut off, it will inevitably lead to chaos in the six northeastern states. Originally, the centrifugal force of the six northeastern states is getting stronger and stronger. If the outside world is disturbed again, the six northeastern states will definitely break away from India, because they themselves do not have a deep relationship with India, and the various actions of India have made them feel nothing. They do not want to be discriminated against by mainstream Indians, but leaving is their preferred choice! Therefore, as long as the Siliguri Corridor is controlled, the outcome of the six northeastern states is already doomed, and once the six northeastern states choose to secede from India, it will inevitably lead to other regions to follow suit. What will happen to India then?

Under this situation, India still has no measures that can be taken, and it still consumes them internally. After all, India is now under the pressure of the epidemic, and it is completely impossible to protect itself! Therefore, what India can do is to keep the conflict between them within control as much as possible. As long as they don't go too far, let them fight and make trouble, and the Indian government will follow suit.

If this situation develops, the actions of the Indian government will only make the six northeastern states more and more detached from India. For these, I believe that India also has a certain sense of crisis, but they have no way of starting this endless cycle.

India has always transferred its contradictions to the outside world. In fact, India's internal contradictions are their biggest problem.

For neighboring countries, they have always been "bitter for a long time". Whether it is Pakistan or Nepal, it is not once or twice that they have fought with India. They do not want to live under the bullying of India all the time. So they do everything possible to strengthen ties and cooperation with China, and China helps them build infrastructure, and their economy will break through the previous situation. For example, the construction of the China-Pakistan Railway is bound to put the "China-Pakistan Economic Corridor" on the right track; for example, the China-Nepal Railway is also under construction. This railway crossing the Himalayas is another human miracle and will inevitably change the history of Nepal! The cooperation between these countries and China is like a year for India, but it is not completely forced by India to this stage!

With the escalation of cooperation between China and Nepal, Nepal's economic situation will inevitably rise to a new level. Nepal will take the express train of China, and after the economic situation is reversed, it will inevitably have a certain impact on the surrounding area. And Nepal is also close to the Siliguri Corridor, which makes the people in this area will definitely feel the rapid development of Nepal. At this time, they don’t need to give them more strategies from the outside, maybe they also think about separation from India.

Therefore, resolving disputes does not necessarily have to be by military means. This is often the only choice. China is a country with infinite wisdom. When we deal with these problems, we will also use economic means to solve them! When Nepal's economic situation is reversed, it will have a great impact on Bhutan and the six northeastern states. At that time, India is bound to face greater pressure.

In recent years, India has always hoped to demonstrate its strength in the international community, actively develop in various fields, and even applied for permanent membership of the UN Security Council for many times. India has made great strides in both the economic and military fields, and has taken a critical step in the space sector. Regrettably, India strives to show its good image in the international community and hopes to enhance its international influence, but the environment India is now in is already extremely bad. If the six northeastern states really turn the blame on the Indian government, not the surrounding neighbors , then it can really make India drink a pot! And all this may only need a fuse, which is actually the result of internal contradictions in India. It is impossible to solve domestic disputes and contradictions. It seems that Prime Minister Modi is going to have a headache again. Editor/Sang Xiaomei
