If I am not mistaken, every Christians or the people living under the sky believe that Jesus Christ the Son of God is coming again to reign with His believer over the whole World as the King of Kings in New Jerusalem. As because, He defeated Satan and rose up to heaven from death where He assured us to come again in presence of His disciples and the crowed before 2000 years ago.
It is also worth to be mentioned here that both collective Naga leaders Isak Swu and Th. Muivah while trying to solve the Naga political issue, they are repeatedly coming to Nagaland from Delhi to meet the Naga Hoho, FNR and some of the other NGOs. However till today, it is not yet declared before the public in general that what type of settlement will bring to the Nagas from the GOI, and for which inhabited area of the Nagas they shall reign over while coming again to Nagaland.
It is also felt necessary to know that whether the Naga Hoho (NH) jurisdiction has covered up to the Naga United Council (UNC) area of Manipur or not? As because, everyone is aware that the UNC is fighting for an alternative arrangement only for the Nagas in Manipur. And if the UNC is a unit within the Naga Hoho, does Naga HOho agreed with UNC for the alternative arrangement for the Nagas in Manipur? And if it done so, there will be only eight (8) tribes of Nagas under the banner of Naga Hoho, why because, the ENPO is clearly having a separate jurisdiction from Naga Hoho and in which area they are having seven (7) Naga tribes including Tikhir Naga tribes though Tikhir is not a recognised tribe and simultaneously it is found that UNC also have its own separated jurisdiction.
It is also important to be mentioned here that the Nagas demanded their freedom Independence from the hand of British Government and not this present State of Nagaland. And as such, if the Naga National political issue is to be settled, it is the duty of the Naga national workers and their leaders though big or small faction and it is not the duty of NGOs or the MLAs. As because, the NGOs or MLAs do not represent the Naga underground neither they cannot represent the Naga Village authority in any Naga political final settlement.
In this connection, the 9th point’s agreement was made between the GOI and the Nagas in 1947. However, in violation of the said agreement by the GOI the Naga villages were burnt down into ashes, their women folks were raped and molested and thousands of the Naga innocent lives were killed. And for which, the GOI must tender her apology before the Nagas and paid their compensation through village authority so that the only amicable settlement may be arrived at between the leaders of Naga UG and GOI. And the settlement of the Naga political issue must be acceptable to all parties including the Naga Villages authorities.
Moreover, while the GOI offered the present State Government to Nagas and Assam, mutual discussion was never held for indicating the boundary line between the two States. And as such the present temporary boundary pillars which are shown by the Assam Government only is not acceptable by the Nagas and I on behalf of Tenyimia’s strongly opposed the said proposal. As because the traditional land of Zeliangs, Angamis, Rengmas etc are vastly encroached by the Assam Government and for which the case is kept pending in the Supreme Court for disposal.
To speak the truth that the real Naga conquered areas of their forefathers land boundaries were clearly indicated between the Nagas and Assam by the British India Government. And as such, hasty action taken by any goodwill team or Govt. of Nagaland or erecting boundary pillar alone the present temporary boundary line by the Assam Government will invite more problems and if any goodwill team is willing to bring some mutual/amicable boundary settlement by give and take policy between the Nagas and Assam, they must follow the 9th Point Agreement so that the Naga problem may be solved once and for all with the GOI.
