EP-238 | Manipur Violence, India-China Border Truce, J&K Terror Attacks & More | Lt Gen Hooda (Retd)

Manipur is on the edge, with no end in sight to the Kuki-Meitei divide. AFSPA has been imposed in six districts, and additional forces have been deployed in the state after 11suspected militants were killed in an encounter with the CRPF.

When will peace return to Manipur? Is the Centre delaying taking the strictest action against radical groups? What's the solution?

In the latest episode of the ANI podcast, Lt Gen D S Hooda (Retd) answers all these questions. Having served for 40 years, he held multiple posts, including Army Commander of the Northern Command. He was the Army Commander during the Chumar incident along the LAC in 2014 and during the launch of the surgical strikes in September 2016. He retired in November 2016.

In this episode he also talks about the India-China border truce and whether Beijing can be trusted. He explains in detail what is happening in Jammu and Kashmir and why there is a rise in terror attacks there.

More on the surgical strikes against Pakistan in 2016, reforms in the Army, and expenditure on the armed forces.
