Dysdercus sp.
On our way to an angling spot - some 50km away from our town Gangtok - I was stopped by these bright and frantic red bugs that were marching all over the sal forest, in an area more than a sq.km. They were in different stages of marurity. It seemed to me they were in a confused coordination, moving in all directions but many in tandem!

Corrected!
It is Dysdercus, not Dysdercua ;-).
Thanks tmvdh.
I agree
It's not Pyrrhocoris apterus - it has got wings ;-).
