NPCC counters Rajya Sabha MP Khekiho Zhimomi

Shri. Khekiho Zhimomi is known more for Sugar Mill VRS Scam (in which he is charge-sheeted) and thea Industrial transport subsidy scam than being a Rajya Sabha MP. His lengthy discourse to paint Congress as anti-Naga was an imitation of whom he called his political saviour, Shri. Neiphiu Rio, the Chief Minister of Nagaland. He had raised 16-point agreement, Bedrock of Naga Society, DAA/AFSPA, 1998 general election, imposition of President’s rule in 2007 and NPF’s launching in Senapati, Manipur to score his points.
 On 16-point agreement, does he know that he is also included in the group of over-ground leaders whom he charged of hijacking the underground leaders? All over-ground leaders who had and have been taking active part in Nagaland State electoral politics falls into that category because by doing so all have joined the band-wagon of Naga Peoples’ Convention (NPC). He is a Naga MP today because of 16-point agreement. Therefore, by terming the 16-point agreement as a blunder he has lost constitutional right to continue as MP.
 On 1998 general election, he should ask Neiphiu Rio, Chief Minister, G. Kaito, Minister of R & B, T.R. Zeliang, Minister for Planning, Doshehe Sema, Power Minister and Ex.Congress MLAs in NPF to explain because they also got elected unopposed as INC candidates.
 Other points he had mentioned did not merit any response. However, on his willingness to sacrifice any day for the interest of the Naga people, he should do so immediately on moral ground because he is a charge-sheeted accused in Sugar Mill VRS scam and cases are pending against him in Industrial Transport Subsidy case. Are these issues not the interest of the Naga people?
 Khekiho Zhimomi should also spell out, as MP, what he has done for the Nagas on Naga political issue. How many times had he met the Prime Minister of India and Union Home Minister to personally discuss the Naga issue? How many times had he raised the Naga political issue on the floor of the upper house of Parliament? What sort of intellectual people had he met and for how many times, to disseminate the Nagas’ right? If he has not done these basic home works, he has no moral right to lecture the Nagas on Naga political issue.
