Earlier this month, at least six cadres of the dreaded Manipur-based insurgent outfit – People’s Liberation Army (PLA) were killed due to internal clashes in Myanmar.
Highly placed sources had informed that the clashes broke out at the Nayang Wakathan camp of the NSCN-KYA in Myanmar, which is located opposite the Pangsau Pass in Changlang district of Arunachal Pradesh.
