“Kidnappings and Flooding Leave Northeast India in Turmoil”
Gospel for Asia
For Immediate Release
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “NORTHEAST INDIA (ANS) — From kidnapped children in Manipur to flooding in Assam, the Northeast corner of India is in a state of unrest and upheaval.
At least 24 children have been reported missing in Manipur, and police think this number might be even higher.
It is believed that a rebel group has been kidnapping the children to make them child soldiers. Although the militants claim that they are simply recruiting the children and that the children join of their own free will, most believe that the group is abducting them.
In light of these events, some parents have stopped sending their children to school by themselves, and school authorities have decided that parents must pick their children up when school lets out.”
