The Insurgency in Arunachal Pradesh is a part of the larger Northeast India insurgency involving multiple groups trying to separate from or destabilize the province. Because of Arunachal Pradesh's close proximity to the border, many groups are able to use border crossings to promote their terrorist activity. Since Arunachal Pradesh's recapture in the 1962 War, there has been incursions from the Chinese Army in the region further escalating the conflict. The conflict has slowed since the early 2000s due to police arrest of major insurgent leaders. The highly diverse ethnic and religious population of the province has also influenced various groups.
