Security forces, including state and central forces, are not to launch any operations, nor can the underground groups.
The insurgent signatories shall abide by the Constitution of India, the laws of the land and the territorial integrity of Manipur.
They are prohibited from committing all kinds of atrocities, extortion, among others.
The militant cadres are to be confined in designated camps identified by the Government.
Arms are deposited in a safe room under a double-locking system. The groups are given arms only to guard their camps and protect their leaders.
