Dimapur, July 5 (MExN): The Niki Sumi-led faction of NSCN on Monday responded to the ‘senseless allegations’ made by the Working Committee, Naga National Political Groups (WC, NNPGs) against its efforts to bring about peace and tranquillity as desired by the Naga people.
“The NSCN/GPRN, in its conviction to uphold the wishes of the people, took a bold step to work for long lasting peace to prevail in the land and in doing so the NSCN/GPRN came to the negotiating table not for any sort of ‘surrendering motives’ whatsoever as alleged by WC, NNPG or for any other reason but to pave the way to fulfil Naga people’s desire for peace,” it said in a press release issued through its MIP Addl Secretary Pilato Wotsa.
It reiterated that the group is not trying to create chaos and confusion or to hamper the longings of Nagas. Keeping in mind, one solution inclusive of all groups as clearly stated by Government of India, NSCN/GPRN as an entity representing the Naga people and in the interest of the Nagas at large, had come out to listen to Naga people and will strive for what the people want, it maintained.
The NNPGs, as a matured entity, is expected to be more amicable and diplomatic in its approach rather than trying to find fault of others because ultimately, all groups are committed for peace to prevail in the land and uphold the same in the true spirit, the release stated, while adding that peace cannot be achieved by levelling allegations on one another but only through taking all stakeholders on board.
“Irrespective of tribes or political groups, Nagas at this juncture are committed for ushering in a new dawn of peace and tranquillity in the land by means of finding a solution. Naga people are sensible and intellect enough to ascertain who the wolf among the sheep is,” it added.
