DIMAPUR, MARCH 5 (MExN): The Naga Rising today called for accountability and clarity in the Indo-Naga peace talks and stated that agreements must be honoured in letter and spirit.
A press release from the Naga Rising asked the NSCN (IM) and the Government of India’s Interlocutor for the Indo-Naga peace talks, to “honour their word and commitment given to one another.”
The Naga Rising urged all parties that any agreement, whether it is the NSCN (IM)’s Framework Agreement with the GoI or the Agreed Position of the NNPGs, “must be interpreted and respected both in letter and spirit and not as per the convenience of the dominant party or entity.”
Meanwhile, it stressed on the need for the NSCN (IM) and the 7 NNPGs to “sit down together and work out the final competencies before signing the agreement with the GoI.” If the Naga political groups show the will to work together under a common platform, competencies will take care of itself, it added.
