The Confederation of Meghalaya Social Organizations (CoMSO) has sought a central-level investigation into the alleged threat issued in the name of ISIS-K against Garo people, warning them to vacate their land by 2027. In a memorandum addressed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, CoMSO chairman Roykupar Synrem urged the “immediate involvement of central counter-terror and intelligence agencies” and a “comprehensive investigation into the origin, intent, and networks behind the threat”. He also sought stronger intelligence gathering and visible deployment of security forces in vulnerable areas “to reassure the public”. Synrem demanded the “swift arrest and prosecution of all individuals involved under relevant anti-terror and national security laws” and called for zero tolerance towards those “aiding, abetting, or shielding extremist activities”. The memorandum further pressed for a review of border security mechanisms, monitoring and dismantling of radical propaganda networks, and protection of indigenous land and demographic integrity. Terming the surfacing of the poster as a direct threat to internal security, communal harmony and indigenous rights, Synrem said the invocation of a globally recognized terrorist organisation such as ISIS-K “cannot be treated lightly under any circumstance”.
