Why did Government ban the Meghalaya-based insurgent group HNLC

The Government decided to ban the Meghalaya-based insurgent group HNLC.
  • The HNLC was banned by the Government due to its involvement in various anti-national and violent activities in the state of Meghalaya, including bomb blasts, extortion, and targeted killings.
  • The group was declared a terrorist organization for threatening the peace, security, and sovereignty of India.
  • The ban on HNLC was imposed to disrupt its funding sources, curb its recruitment activities, and prevent it from carrying out further acts of violence and terror in the region.
  • By banning the group, the Government aims to safeguard the interests of the local population and maintain law and order in Meghalaya.
  • The ban on HNLC also serves as a deterrence against other insurgent groups operating in the region, sending a strong message that such activities will not be tolerated.
