As part of joint strategy for recovery of snatched weapons, these operations are significant for restoring peace and will continue in a calibrated manner, the PRO (Defence), Kohima & Imphal stated in an update. 

Conducted under the surveillance cover of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and Quadcopters, the operations have so far resulted in recovery of 40 weapons (mostly automatics), mortars, ammunition and other warlike stores. “During the conduct of these operations, adequate measures were undertaken to ensure that the locals are not harassed and personal safety and security is maintained,” the PRO stated. 

“Following the directions received during the visit of Union Home Minister,” the Security Forces have once again appealed to the people, in possession of snatched weapons, to surrender the weapons at the earliest for ensuring peace and stability in the state. It also cautioned that failure to surrender these weapons will make all such people liable for strict legal action.
