India is a country that is not stable at home, but wants to play the leading role in the world.

I saw a piece of news last year, saying that at a critical moment in the fight against the new crown epidemic, 185 nurses suddenly resigned collectively, and the reason turned out to be because of the appearance problem, because they had a Chinese face and suffered. Other people's criticisms, under tremendous pressure, so collectively resigned. They are from one of the six northeastern states of India- Manipur .

In our understanding, what do Indians look like? It should be like this...

From the face of it, the Manipur people are quite similar to the ethnic minorities in Southwest my country. Rejected by India.

And the most circulated about Manipur is "Six-Star Red Flag" and "Dragon's Descendant".

However, the "six-star red flag" cannot be found in Manipur, because it was a diplomatic error in 2011 when Vietnam welcomed our leaders to visit, and somehow it was moved to Manipur. As for the "descendants of the dragon", it is better to say that Thailand and Vietnam are closer to us.

But it doesn't matter, it does not prevent the People's Liberation Army of Manipur from becoming independent. Let's take a look at this, what is going on in Manipur with a Chinese face.

Why is Manipur a "little China"?

India is one of the six most painful Northeast states, adjacent to Myanmar to the east, covering an area of ​​about 22,000 square kilometers and a population of 2.7 million. The people of Manipur State are very different from the mainstream ethnic groups in India. From the looks of them, we have made a comparison.

is not just about looks,The people of Manipur State are incompatible with India in terms of culture and food.

Culturally, Manipur State, located in the mountainous region of the northeast, is geographically closer to Burma, not far from China, and is separated from India’s cultural foundation, the Ganges River Basin. Wanshui, so the people of the state are culturally similar to those of Southeast Asian countries. Knowing that Southeast Asia, especially Burma, Thailand, Vietnam and other countries, have close ties with China, it is not surprising that Manipur is affected.

In terms of diet, is different from the "curry-flavored" Indian rice. The people of Manipur like a light diet and they like to eat rice. The "pickles, bamboo shoots, etc." in people's homes are similar to the taste of Yunnan in my country. Much like, in the traditional festival of Manipur State "Sangai Festival", fried rice, fried noodles, steamed buns and dumplings are all available.

In history: Manipur people claim to be descendants of the Tang Dynasty. It is said that during the Sui and Tang dynasties, the leaders of the Yunnan region rebelled against the Tang, and the dynasty soldiers garrisoned in the southwestern frontier broke off with the central government. Not moving westward, somewhat similar to the Kokang people today. Therefore, the soldiers brought Chinese culture into Manipur. Some people also say that during the Yan and Huang Dynasty, the branch of Jiuli from the Central Plains moved south, and there is an article on the official website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which was written by a diplomat after visiting Manipur, saying that the Manipur people were five generations. During the ten-nation period , affected by the war in the Central Plains, a group of Han people came to this time to escape the war, even the Chief Minister of Manipur said the same.

With the development of the Internet, the slogan of the separatists in Manipur State claiming to be a "socialist society" spread, was hotly discussed by netizens, and gradually became the "little China" in their mouths.

Manipur,Why become Indian territory?

In history, Manipur has no relationship with today's India even with "one rupee".

Everyone knows that India is a nation without history, and even a nation without a nation. "Iron-struck India, invaders of flowing water". The nation that invaded in the Indian subcontinent has never unified India, let alone Putting Manipur into the territory, after all, only 8% of the plains in Manipur, the rest are all mountains. Why focus on this? So even the Mughal Empire, which almost unified the Indian subcontinent, only expanded its territory to the eastern edge of what is now Bangladesh.

The Indians thank the former masters, the British, and the British not only for teaching Indians what a country is, but also for completely unifying the Indian subcontinent that has not been unified for thousands of years. It was during the reunification of the British that Manipur became a territory under Anglo-Indian rule.

Manipur, has been an independent city-state, or tribe, for thousands of years. There are still 29 tribes. Manipur is located between India and Burma. In 1824, the first broke out. As an important passage between India and Burma, Manipur became a British colony at the end of the war.

But For hundreds of years, the British did not pay much attention to this place. After all, it was a border land. Until the outbreak of a Imphal battle during World War II, the British discovered the importance of Manipur. Not only that, but the United Kingdom is still here. During this period, it invaded and occupied China's southern Tibet (after the McMahon line was proposed, the British did not actually occupy it and did not act until this time).

Although Manipur was colonized, he has never succumbed, and his heart of independence has not changed. At the end of the 19th century, British India set off a wave of independence. Gandhi begged Britain to grant independence by self-harm. With the outbreak of the two world wars and the decline of British national power, the United States and the Soviet Union encouraged the independence of the British and French colonies . India finally gained independence in 1947. However, Manipur declared independence five days earlier than India’s independence on August 15, 1947.Manipur Kingdom established.

India naturally knows the importance of Manipur, and at the same time, in order to prevent the country from following suit, India used a trick. On September 21, 1949, India invited King Manipur to visit India. When the king arrived in Shillong, he signed the "incorporation agreement" of "voluntarily joining India" under the coercion and inducement of India. India subsequently used this as a reason A large army was dispatched and Manipur was included in the Indian territory.

Why does India stare at Manipur and use despicable means for this?

Looking at the map, we will find that due to the partition of India and Pakistan , the six northeastern states of India and their headquarters need to be connected through the narrow Siliguri corridor. Once Manipur becomes independent, Tripura and Mizoram in the northeast will only have a narrow passage connecting with Assam, which will be extremely bad. It is possible that the several states in the Northeast will all be independent.

"People's Liberation Army":

The separation organization of Manipur is actually very complicated. According to the official division of Manipur, it is divided into Metai, Naga, Kuki and Pangao. Among them, the request of the Kuki people is to separate the Kuki tribe living in the mountainous area from Manipur and establish a new state, because building a state can benefit from the central government.

The Maitai and Naga people advocate complete independence, but the Naga National Socialist Committee, the armed organization of the Naga people, found that it was unable to achieve the goal of independence after years of struggle, so they knew the current affairs and chose a ceasefire with India. , Now only the Meitai people are remaining in the struggle.

As the main ethnic group of Manipur, the Metai people firmly hope for Manipur independence. In their view, the "incorporation agreement" signed by the King of Manipur on September 21, 1949 is invalid. It was the agreement that was signed under the circumstances of India's coercive temptation,The King of Manipur was under house arrest and was forced to sign this agreement reluctantly. It is against the will of the people. Second, the Manipur Kingdom, as a constitutional monarchy, has no right to make such a merger decision without the authorization of parliament and cabinet. The first dispute is an important basis for the separation of the Meitai people.

I don’t know if it was affected by the 1962 counterattack against India. In 1964, Manipur’s Singh established a "United National Liberation Front" (it sounds a bit like our country’s "united front") , Pursuing the establishment of a "socialist society". After all, "poverty is not socialism", Singh is ready to lead the people of Manipur into a prosperous life.

The first climax of the Manipur independence movement was in December 1968. A faction separated from the United Front established the "Manipur Revolutionary Government" in Sirte, East Pakistan, but was the third time. In the Indo-Pakistani War, even East Pakistan was dismembered by India. The Indian army was dismembered and entered the territory of East Pakistan. The separatists were severely hit by India, and Manipu's independence movement entered a low ebb.

In the early 1970s, Singh was arrested and imprisoned by India. In prison, Singh met a member of the Naxalite ( Maoist ). By the time he was released from prison, Singh had become a staunch believer in Mao Zedong Thought, knowing that the struggle needs to be armed with thought and the masses of the people need to be fully mobilized.

In September 1978, Singh asked for help and established the "Manipur People's Liberation Army." In 1980, the Manipur Communist Party was established.

This has attracted India’s intensified military strikes. Manipur has only 2 million people. It is only 60% of the Maitais who advocate complete independence, which is more than 1 million. The Indian government adopts man-to-man tactics. The police stared at 20 civilians. This completely left the "man's solution" at a loss. The separatists surrendered one after another, and were subsequently assigned to work in factories and enterprises.

The factions that were unwilling to surrender had no choice but to gather together to keep warm, established a united front, and established a government in exile in Bangladesh. At the same time, a military camp was set up in Burma. After all, Manipur is adjacent to Burma. You can always find some relatives to help you in Burma.

At present, the number of "Manners" is small, and they can only engage in some violent activities such as attacks on the military and police, but these activities have caused thousands of deaths from the 1990s to the present.

The future of independence is hopeless:

There are only more than 1 million Maitai people, while India has 1.3 billion. This is no different from hitting a rock with a pebble, so without external intervention, Manipur wants to be independent It is simply impossible to complete.

Especially in 1972, when Manipur was upgraded to a state, the autonomy expanded, many people gave up resistance, and the mass base of the Manipur separatist movement was broken. At present, the separation organization of Manipur has been unable to have a substantial impact on India.

As far as netizens are concerned, Manipur’s pro-China talk is even more nonsense. It is just an East Asian face. In fact, the ethnic distribution of Indochina is very chaotic, and China’s Jingpo When the tribe arrived in Burma, it became the most aggressive against Burma. The Kachin tribe . The villages on both sides of the border are relatives. The Manipur people are also the same. At most, they are somewhat related to which ethnic group in southwest China. Of course, they may have a deeper blood relationship with a certain ethnic group in Myanmar, but it may not be right to say that they are descendants of the Celestial dynasty.

The only thing that looks like a Chinese is that face and black hair. But who made them have such a face? The Indians experienced a fiasco in 1962 and saw that China and India were on the same starting line, but now, when China looks back, they don’t see where India is at all, so they see China. When people are angry, they will ask you if they look alike.

Separated organizations, just want to be independent, nothing more, it is impossible to make them friendly, no matter who rules them, they will be opposed.

Last year’s incident in the Kalevan Valley,Because of a video released by China, the Indian soldier who was the first to rush up during the conflict was stopped by Captain Qi Fabao. This soldier came from Manipur. After the conflict, he was received by the chief minister of Manipur, , and he was awarded a medal by Modi himself. He became a hero of India, so don’t give too much to Manipur. expect. Those ethnic minorities who wish to integrate into Indian society may be more fierce than mainstream ethnic groups in the war. Don’t you see those pseudo-traitors who treat their compatriots more fiercely in order to gain the approval of their masters? Besides, we are not compatriots with them.

However, this may become a card in the future. India has been playing the Tibet card for decades. Since my country’s southeast issue has not yet been resolved, it has always wanted a peaceful solution to India. However, as the situation develops, the future includes Man The 6 northeastern states of India, including Nipur, may all be a big card in our hand, and we can get a straight and blow it straight out.

India is hopeless to split in the short term, but from the thousands of years of India’s history, it has been a cycle of hundreds of years, first falling into split, and then being ruled by a new foreign nation. Who will enter India next via Khyber Pass ?
