DIMAPUR, OCTOBER 20 (MExN): Khango Konyak led NSCN (K) on Saturday reiterated its stand that Khango is the only legitimate and constitutionally elected and serving president of the NSCN (K).
MIP, GPRN in a press release on Saturday said the impeachment attempt by what it alleged as “exclusive workers from a Myanmar-Naga tribe bears no constitutional sanctity and therefore cannot be construed as impeachment but simply an attempt to usurp power illegally and forcefully.”
It maintained that the coup attempt was neither endorsed by the central council, the council of kiloners nor the party and not a single NSCN leader from the Indian side were consulted in either the coup or the selection of Yung Aung. It alleged that the “breakaway NCA group led by Pangmi renegades has already entered into an agreement with Myanmar government accepting Myanmar constitution thereby renouncing the historical sovereign rights of the Nagas and has painstakingly been colluding with the juntas to capture or assassinate Khango Konyak and the rest of NSCN workers.”
The MIP also stated that “regardless of the presence of two lieutenant generals from Indian side in the Nationwide Ceasefire Agreement (NCA) group, without cadres and mandate they no longer command any credibility to represent the Nagas in any platform since they have willfully accepted Myanmar union and denounced the Naga struggle for sovereignty on their own volition.”
It also maintained that Khango Konyak led NSCN is the one and the same NSCN that has been in existence since 1980 formed to salvage the Nagas from the infamous Shillong Accord of 1975 and therefore not a new creation or a new faction.
