According to the Indian government, there were around 252 incidents related to insurgency in the north-eastern region of India in 2018. This belt consists of seven states, where tensions have existed between multiple armed separatist factions and the central government for decades. While some separatist groups had been demanding independence from the country, others had been seeking more regional autonomy and tribal laws.
Despite these circumstances, the 2019 general elections saw a voter turnout of over 80 percent in states like Manipur, higher than the national average.
