The Assam Rifles marks its 189th Raising Day on 24 March. On the occasion we replug our series ‘East of the Northeast’ aired first in May 2023. In our ground report, StratNews Global travels along the Burma border in eastern Arunachal Pradesh from Pangsau Pass to Vijaynagar. Firstly, in this episode, we fly on board the lifeline provided by the Chinooks of the Indian Air Force’s Mighty Talons 124 Helicopter Unit to one of the eastern most inhabited areas and Advanced Landing Grounds of the country. En route and on location, Lt Gen P.C. Nair, Director General, Assam Rifles, Brig Swarn Singh, DIG, 25 Sector and Col Mohit Verma, Commandant, 19 Assam Rifles explain the strategic significance of how India discovered, secured and settled the critical Vijaynagar bowl.
Along The Burma Border In Arunachal Pradesh: Pangsau Pass To Vijaynagar
Our team of Amitabh P. Revi and Rohit Pandita travels to Dibrugarh, Lekhapani, Jairampur, Pangsau Pass, Jorhat, Chabua and Vijaynagar. We connect the dots of history to explain the critical importance of these little-known border areas. We also document the path-breaking Ledo or Stilwell road, the Pangsau Pass. And how NSCN and ULFA insurgents attacked the post there in the run-up to Independence Day in 2022. We also re-visit the Vijaynagar Bowl and the history of how two Assam Rifles expeditions, the second led by Brig (later) Major General) A.S.Guraya changed how history and geography are now, and how they fit into India’s ‘Act East’ policy.
Lt General Nair talks about the Assam Rifles response during the Manipur violence, the huge drug seizures from across the border, who is behind the upward trend in contraband smuggling, and illegal migration. Additionally, he also speaks about the general downward trend of insurgency, the role of external forces, the future role of the force he leads, and the situation across the Burma border.

Really nice to see my birthplace Nampong....and yes they provide accurate information about the place, good job 👍Before Covid-19 there was also an international festival organized every 2 years called (PPIWF) Pangso Pass International Winter was named as a 3 days festival in the month of January. Millions of tourists come and visit the lake which is called the "Lake of No Return".

Very Good Reportage! Thank You Assam Rifles for their services 🙏 However, Assam Rifles need to ensure that No Partiality is being done in respect to Jobins & Gurkhas. It has been in the news that certain factions of Assam Rifles supported Chin-Kukis in recent Kuki-Maitaei Manipur Incident! Defence Forces can't and shouldn't be partial. We expect Justice & Peace to prevail at Indo-Burma Border.
