RPF Condemns Indian Army Alleged Drone Strike, Mourns Death of ULFA (I) Leader in Attack

July 14, 2025 : The Revolutionary People’s Front (RPF) has strongly condemned the alleged drone strike carried out by Indian Special Forces on the camps of the United Liberation Front of Asom-(Independent) and the joint camp of its armed wing, the People’s Liberation Army (PLA), and ULFA-I on Saturday midnight at the border of Nagaland and Myanmar.

The outfit, in a statement, said such drone attacks and proxy wars initiated by the Indian Army against the PLA and ULFA (I) clearly reveal the true nature and intention of India: that the people of Assam and Manipur are “archenemies of India.”

The outfit also mourns and condoles the death of Lt. General Nayan Asom, Chairman of the Lower Council of ULFA (I), and those injured cadres of the ULFA (I). However, the outfit also claims there were no casualties on the side of the PLA.

The statement claims that the attack reportedly targeted four ULFA (I) camps and one joint PLA-ULFA (I) camp near the Nagaland-Myanmar border.

Manipur’s Edible Water Bug ‘Naosek’ on the Verge of Extinction

July 14, 2025 : ‘Naosek,’ an edible giant water bug scientifically known as Lethocerus indicus, that played an important part in Manipur’s culinary heritage as a condiment, is now on the verge of extinction, and its sight has become very rare in its natural habitats—especially in water bodies, paddy fields, and Loktak Lake.

‘Naosek’ (Lethocerus indicus) occupied a phenomenal position in Manipur’s gallery of culinary art for its aromatic value, once used as an inseparable condiment in ‘Laphu Eromba,’ a typical Manipuri banana-stem dish made after boiling or steaming, then mashed with chili and fermented fish and garnished with different herbs. This water bug is native to Southeast Asia and is considered a delicacy in several Southeast Asian cuisines.
