Dimapur, May 19 (MExN): The NPCC today said that NDPP, while pointing its forefinger at NPF accusing it of “double standards,” forgets the remaining three fingers of "double standards" are pointing back at them.
“NPF has taken the right decision to withdraw its support to the BJP government in Manipur,” stated NPCC President K Therie in a press release.
The release said it will further the cause of secularism in the Northeast, adding that they “stand together in defending our faith and identity and in securing a realistic political solution.”
“BJP and NDPP led Governments in Manipur and Nagaland respectively were both speaking against CAB in their respective states but are supporting the BJP Manifesto which declared to pass CAB if given opportunity again in the nation,” Therie alleged.
For the last 17 years they have been assuring talks are in the right direction, and also “assured countless times of early political solution.” When questioned in the State Assembly of the status of negotiations, the answer is they don’t know, it stated.
The purported letter to Rahul, Congress President and filing defamation case thereafter, is another double standard. “The shameless letter was exposed to media to confuse and perhaps some were victimized out of it. Delhi understands having relation with NDPP means corrupt money and not because of trust or integrity or conviction,” NPCC added.
Therie defended the party’s stand not to allow themselves “to be thrown into dirty mud and I will never ever allow them to betray the Congress again.”
