DIMAPUR, NOVEMBER 17 (MExN): The Naga Hoho today appealed to all Naga Political Groups to be “accommodative” and come together for a peaceful settlement of the Naga political issue.
A press release from the Naga Hoho general secretary, K Elu Ndang said that the “the search for Just Peace and honourable Settlement of the Indo-Naga peace process has come about giving a ray of hope and belief that a new era of peace and tranquility will prevail once again in Naga society.”
However, it stated that “unless all Naga Political Groups come together leaving aside their past differences, there can never be true peace in the land.”
“As long as the spirit of vengeance is kept alive in an individual’s heart, there can never be true peace. Hence, all the Naga political groups must be pragmatic in resolving the differences for the sake of the Naga people,” the Naga Hoho appealed.
“The desire of the Naga people to live in dignity must be honoured and respected above all personal interest,” it asserted, and urged all political groups to come together and usher in peace.
It asked all national workers to “sit across the table in the true spirit of forgive and forget and march forward with renewed mind and spirit.” The Naga Hoho further urged that no political groups should create “unwanted situation” in the process of an honourable settlement, and rather strive to ensure “peaceful atmosphere for a smooth transition.”
