DIMAPUR, JULY 7 (MExN): Chairman of the GPRN/NSCN Gen Khole Konyak has stated that at this point of time Nagas need Reconciliation and Unity more now than at any other point of time. “Today is a time to ponder together and search for a missing link in our political pursuit. Political solution is our ultimate goal but there should be a resemblance of oneness in our approach and vision”, stated Gen Khole in his maiden address to the Nagas. Expressing pain that there were “some young leaders who are propagating that” he had “surrendered before Sumis”, Khole stated that among all destructive activities, “false statements without ascertaining the facts have brought much misery and shame on the Naga people”. “I have nothing to surrender before anyone. I have served the Naga Nation for 57 years without surrendering to anyone. 57 years is a personal victory for me but not for the Naga nation”, Khole stated in his address.
Stating that if there was one thing why he accepted the responsibility of Chairman and President, at such a late stage, it was because at this point of time Nagas need Reconciliation and Unity more now than at any other point of time. Khole also encouraged the Forum for Naga Reconciliation (FNR), Civil Societies and NGOs to continue what he described as “the blessed work” that they have set out for. “May the God Almighty lead us to the path of peace and Reconciliation of the Naga people. May we continue to reason together”, the message stated.
Gen Khole also stated that he never ever aspired to hold top post or position in the national service and that his “only wish was and is to see the Naga people reconciling with one another for the common good”. He stated that he was “honoured by the verdict of the GPRN/NSCN National Assembly of 7th June 2011, which elected” him as the new Chairman.
