In another development, three more NLFT cadres have surrendered to the Border Security Force in eastern Tripura's Dhalai district. Senior security and intelligence officials are now interrogating the surrendered militants. A BSF statement said that Tripura has been insurgency-prone for the last few decades but due to the endeavour of central agencies and state authorities, in the recent past, several cadres of NLFT opted to return back to the mainstream of the society. Such examples will certainly motivate the misguided youths to leave the path of violence, it said. /IANS
