After the martyrdom of 5 soldiers of Assam Rifles on November 13, the army has increased strictness on the Myanmar border. Intelligence is also being collected. It is being told that the militants have fled to Myanmar after the attack. Moreh town in Manipur, which shares a border of 398 km with Myanmar, is less than 50 meters away from Myanmar.
Here people living in Myanmar are seen on one side and Indians on the other. Kuki, Meitiya, Bihari, Tamil, Marwari and Nepali live in Moreh. India-Myanmar Friendship Gate is built here, through which people of Myanmar can come to this town without any passport or visa and from here people can go to Myanmar. However, due to Corona, this gate has been closed for almost two years. Apart from this gate, there is also a bridge in the town itself, from where people of both the countries come and go. The bridge is still closed.
The people of Moreh say - the bridge and gate were about to open, but in the meantime, our soldiers were attacked and the army again increased the strictness. However, even after the gate is closed, people from both sides are coming and going. Those who come to Moreh from Myanmar have to return by 4 pm at any cost.
Moreh people go to Myanmar to buy cheap stuff
The people of Moreh Town go to Myanmar to buy cheap goods, because the scooty which is coming in India for 70 to 80 thousand rupees, the same scooty is available in Myanmar for 35 to 40 thousand rupees. Similarly, petrol which is available in India for Rs 100 to Rs 110 per liter, the same petrol is available in Myanmar for Rs 70 to 80 per liter.
Vicky, who lives in Moreh, says that everyone here has a scooty brought from Burma. It is not registered and the number plate is also not available. So we can run it only locally. According to Vicky, Imphal is 110 km away from Moreh. The town is situated on the hills. So it is very difficult to get there. Instead of Imphal, Myanmar is adjacent. That's why we go to Myanmar for every small or big need. Apart from scooty, petrol, fruits and fruits and clothes are also available there cheaply.
People of Myanmar come every day to set up shop in Moreh
People of Myanmar come every day from 7 to 8 in the morning to set up shop in Moreh. The pucca shops here belong to Indians, but most of the shops on the pavement in front of them belong to the people of Myanmar. Devanand, who set up a clothing shop, says, "People of Myanmar come here every day to buy and we also go, but at the moment we are not going."
They say, whenever tension increases on the border, it has its effect in this town as well. Now that our Indian soldiers have been killed, the tension has increased a bit. Strictness was too much for a day or two, but now it has become a little normal. We are not angry with the people of Myanmar. He is in pain, but there is a lot of anger in his heart about the militants who killed our soldiers.
Every item is being checked, the whole car is being evacuated
While going from Imphal to Moreh, two check posts come, but then there is no special investigation. While returning from Moreh to Imphal, an intense investigation is being done. Every vehicle is being stopped at the check post and all the items kept in the vehicle are being scanned. There is also a ban on taking photos and videos here.
An Assam Rifles officer posted at the check post said that people from Myanmar come and go in Moreh, but the vehicles coming from there are strictly checked and documents are also checked. Militants often take shelter there. In such a situation, no one is being allowed to move forward without investigation. Here too the entry has been closed after 4 pm.
