Among the eight Northeast states, AFSPA is now applicable only in Nagaland, Manipur (excluding Imphal), Assam and parts of Arunachal Pradesh. Mizoram and Tripura reported no incidents of insurgency in 2017, the officials said.

The Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA) has been withdrawn from Meghalaya and its area of operation in Arunachal Pradesh has been restricted to eight police stations bordering Assam and three districts adjoining Myanmar, according to officials in Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA).

Among the eight Northeast states, AFSPA is now applicable only in Nagaland, Manipur (excluding Imphal), Assam and parts of Arunachal Pradesh. Mizoram and Tripura reported no incidents of insurgency in 2017, the officials said.
MHA officials said that till September 2017, 40 per cent of Meghalaya was under AFSPA — this included a 20 km stretch of the state’s 884.9 km border with Assam. “A review was held in consultation with the state government in September last year and the 20 km stretch under AFSPA was reduced to 10 km. Another review was held recently after which the decision to revoke AFSPA was taken,” said a top MHA official.

The decision, the official added, has been taken due to significant improvement of the security situation in the state. In Arunachal Pradesh, areas under AFSPA have been reduced from 16 police stations areas bordering Assam to eight police stations, and Tirap, Changlang and Longding districts, bordering Myanmar.
