This is not just an <strong>abstract (existing as an idea, feeling, or quality, not as a material object) <\/strong>adage but a vision of nation-building and <strong>sustenance (food, or the energy and other things food provides people and animals to keep them strong and healthy)<\/strong>, especially for a country that <strong>emerged (to come to the end of a difficult period or experience) <\/strong>out of colonial rule. The idea of neighbourly relations and borders was tied not just to the interest of national security for the post-colonial nation-state but also to the interests of the people in border areas and their imagined histories. When Home Minister Amit Shah announced that the \u201cFree Movement Regime\u201d (FMR) in place in Indian States bordering Myanmar from 2018 would be scrapped and that the India-Myanmar border be fenced, he was decidedly <strong>negating (to cause something to have no effect) <\/strong>this idea. The ostensible reason for this demand and the need for fencing is because the porous border has served as a conduit for narcotics, besides helping <strong>insurgent (someone who is fighting against the government in their own country) <\/strong>groups in the north-east to establish bases within areas in Myanmar where the junta\u2019s writ is relatively non-existent or weak. But these reasons are not <strong>convincing (able to make you believe that something is true or right) <\/strong>in themselves. Most insurgent groups have weakened substantially and successive Indian governments have been able to <strong>neutralise (to stop something or someone from having an effect) <\/strong>their threats through force or peace efforts, ongoing or completed. Besides, the drug trade is enabled not only by the border\u2019s porosity but also by the relative lack of strong law <strong>enforcement (the process of making people obey a law or rule, or making a particular situation happen or be accepted) <\/strong>with the cooperation of residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That the demand to scrap the FMR has been most <strong>vociferously ((of the way someone complains, protests, etc.) loudly and repeatedly) <\/strong>endorsed by one section of the currently conflict-prone Manipur but has also been fervently opposed by Nagaland and Mizoram should provide a hint about the <strong>sentiments (a thought, opinion, or idea based on a feeling about a situation, or a way of thinking about something) <\/strong>of the people in these States. Myanmar is in the throes of a civil war with civilians from its western regions and States such as Sagain and Chin State seeking refuge and <strong>humanitarian (involved in or connected with improving people\u2019s lives and reducing suffering) <\/strong>relief in neighbouring Mizoram and Manipur. The Mizos of Mizoram and the Kuki-Zo community in Manipur feel a kinship with the Chin community and have been organising relief for the refugees. The opposition to the FMR has come from Meitei <strong>majoritarian (governed by or believing in decision by a majority) <\/strong>forces in the Imphal valley who have raised the <strong>bogey (something that causes fear among a lot of people, often without reason) <\/strong>of Chin refugees entering Manipur as a case of illegal <strong>migration (the process of animals travelling to a different place, usually when the season changes)<\/strong>. The institution of the FMR, as a formalised regime of the movement of citizens across the sparsely populated border to within 16 kilometres of it, for trade and <strong>commerce (the activities involved in buying and selling things)<\/strong>, was a nod to India\u2019s Act East policy. This was also an expression of the will of people of the region who share ethnic relations but are divided by colonially drawn boundaries. The reversal of this regime and the <strong>humongous (extremely large) <\/strong>exercise of fencing a border situated in rugged mountains and forests is a case of misplaced <strong>priorities (something that is very important and must be dealt with before other things)&nbsp; <\/strong>and needs <strong>reconsideration<\/strong> <strong>(the act of thinking again about a decision or opinion and deciding if you want to change it).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlock the power of words, one step further!<strong>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/blog\/vocabulary\/the-hindu-editorial-vocabulary-download-free-pdf\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Download the Lists of Word-Meanings of Previous Months here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Want to know the meanings of difficult words in the Hindu Editorial Vocabulary of February 19, 2024?
