Matikir: site of genocide in
1961 where huts were burned and the village
pastor and nine others were beheaded by Indian
Army.

Oinam: site of the India's Operation Blue Bird massacre in
1987. Villagers were tormented for months.
Men had red pepper wiped in their eyes and private parts. They
were beaten, starved and forced to jump like frogs for hours, only
to be hung or shot in the end of their ordeal as woman and children
helplessly looked on. Is India the largest democracy in the world
or the largest hypocracy? The UN recently released a
report on continous human rights violations and the existance of the
cast system which many India people deny.
When the
testimonials of hundreds of villagers were finally collected over a
fifteen year period, by human rights workers and
submitted to the high supreme court in Dehli India, its judge
callously dismissed the entire case against the Indian Army in
only five days. He said the Indian
Government's 'Arms Forces Special Powers Act' gave constitutional permission for the Indian army to carry
out the genocide. It allows them to shoot to kill anyone who
offers any resistance to their interrogations or seems oriented
towards the freedom movement. This Act must be terminated in
the Indian Constitution for real peace to come to Nagaland. If
India claims to be a democracy it can not continue this Human Rights
violation.
