Henceforth, we commit to working our differences as outlined in the Covenant of Reconciliation. Furthermore, we commit to cessation of all forms of hostilities including, any territorial expansion, for this the JWG will meet from time to time” Lest the Nagas forget, this second point of the Joint Statement on 18th Sept. 2010 was agreed to by leaders, including Th. Muivah, and signed in presence of Forum for Naga Reconciliation.
Upon his arrival at Dimapur on 3rd March after another round of so-called “positive talks”, Th. Muivah declared that he is at liberty to send his armed cadres anywhere, even to eastern Nagaland where IM have had no base for over twenty years. It is shocking to learn that a man whose Chairman signed the Covenant of Reconciliation in June 2009, and who appended his own signature to cease all forms of hostilities, should brag that it is not unnatural to send his armed men to Khiamnungan Region where FGN/NNC Kedahke Brig. (Retd) Shingnya is based and to interior eastern Nagaland towards the base of GPRN/NSCN Chairman S.S Khaplang. The two leaders are not men of pretexts and excuses. These are leaders of men who, decades ago, Th. Muivah tried to kill but failed. In the last twenty five years, Nagas have lost thousands of men and women owing to the sin of using God’s name to further one’s politics. When IM cadres arrives thick and fast towards interior Eastern Naga villages such as Lao and Chalam on the eve of highest level summit, let anybody call it an excuse or a pretext to avoid the summit, it deserves serious evaluation as Naga history is replete with sorry episodes.
Chairman S.S Khaplang and Brig.(Retd) Singnya therefore sought deferment of the highest level summit because IM’s sincerity is seriously lacking. Requesting for deferment of highest level summit by two of the three signatories should not be misconstrued as going against Naga Reconciliation. Th. Muivah can simply brush off the killings and injuries committed by his men at Mekokla, Tizit, Chumukedima, Pochury Region etc. A Naga anywhere is too precious. After signing the Covenant of Reconciliation, these merciless incidents have shaken its pillars.
GPRN/NSCN has a strong affinity with Naga brethren in Arunachal Pradesh and maintains a strong base for years. From time to time Nagas in Arunachal Pradesh come forward with request to arrest drug traffickers and extortionists but in all cases they turn out to be IM cadres. Linking GPRN/NSCN with Assam Rifles and Indian paramilitary forces is baseless. It is a theory too silly to believe. People who stay in Lodhi estate, an official residence for Indian MP’s, fully manned by Indian paramilitary forces, should not invent such stories. That Th. Muivah has come tumbling down from issue of Naga Sovereignty to integration to now ‘give and take’ within Indian constitution is apparent. It is he who has deliberately orchestrated a military mission to eastern Nagaland from Lodhi Estate in Delhi. It is too early for someone who cannot even go to his native village to talk about ‘give and take’ policy with the GOI. Who is bluffing whom?
The last highest level summit took place at Dimapur on 18th Sept. 2010. Every single word spoken by the leaders at the highest level summit was recorded and captured on video by the Forum for Naga Reconciliation. If the Naga people could view the DVD copy of the Summit, inclusiveness of all Nagas was vehemently objected to by Th. Muivah which raised many eyebrows since the primary objective of the summit was inclusive reconciliation. It also left a big question as to what the issue of integration is all about when inclusiveness, whether of people or land, is ruled out. The joint statement of the summit signed by N Kitovi Zhimomi, Brig. (Retd.) Singnya and Th. Muivah on 18th Sept. 2010 could be viewed once more, given the present situation in eastern Nagaland and Th. Muivah’s media interaction at Dimapur on 3rd. March 2011, it is a spiteful contradiction to the very joint statement he signed five months ago at Dimapur. It shows the inconsistency of a man who maybe in conflict with himself. A college can exclude one student but a student can never exclude an institution.
