Dimapur, March 17 (MExN): United Naga Tribes Association (UNTA), an association of all Nagas tribes inhabiting in and around the border areas of Nagaland has cautioned “the unscrupulous act of any unorganized group of people for taking the laws in their hand for the sole purpose of grabbing the lands of those registered and recognized groups or members within the adjoining areas of Dimapur.”
A press statement from UNTA Chairman Chubatangit Jamir and Secretary Hukavi Yepthomi declared that henceforth “UNTA shall not tolerate and entertain any self-centered groups or individuals that would hamper the common interest of the Nagas in its objective for peaceful co-existence within and beyond the traditional jurisdiction of the Naga people.”
