Dimapur, January 31 (MExN): The NSCN (Isak-Muivah) today celebrated its 32nd Raising Day at its designated camp at Hebron with its chairman Isak Chishi Swu unfurling the Naga national flag.
Swu exhorted the organization that the ‘National Socialist Council of Nagalim’ was formed at Nokpa “after the failure of NNC to rise up to the occasion to save the nation by signing the infamous Shillong Accord,” a note from the MIP stated today.
“He said there terrible crisis after the Shillong Accord but God came to their rescue and shows them the way to form NSCN to spearhead the Naga struggle. During the subsequent period NSCN was able to win support in the home front as well as in the international level. The UNPO gave recognition and membership to NSCN in 1993 and other international contacts was also established.” The NSCN chairman appealed to his members “not to forget God and put our relationship with God a priority as this is the only way to save the nation.”
General Secretary of the NSCN/GPRN Th. Muivah also spoke on the function, the MIP said. It was on this day that “correct decision” was taken. ‘When the British left India the Nagas under NNC took two decisions. First, Naga to be their own master, and secondly, Nagaland shall be “Nagaland for Christ”. With this the foundation of Nagalim was laid,” the note claimed. “Muivah however expresses his pain that the foundation is getting weak because of the sins of the members. He put throng emphasis on the need to make things right with God because our salvation is in the hands of God only.”
Angami Region denounces AR raid
The ‘Angami region NSCN-IM’ says it is “disheartened over the unwarranted action” of the 16th Assam Rifles in raiding the house of the group’s Steering Committee Member KK Angami on January 30, 2012 evening at around 6:00 pm.
A note from the ‘Angami region NSCN (IM)’ stated today that the “16th Assam Rifles raided the house of our steering committee member without having any specific proof but simply acting on unreliable reports.”
In yesterday’s raid, unable to locate anything from the house of our senior functionary, the 16th Assam Rifles jawans led by one of their officer in the rank of major even went to the extend of stealing a mobile handset kept on charge in the house.”
The 16th Assam Rifles numbering around 15-20 came in three vehicles and raided the house of the group’s Steering Committee Member “while also creating panic in Chedema village.” “The Angami region NSCN-IM warns the 16th Assam Rifles to avoid creating such a provocative situation, which is totally against the laid down rules of the ceasefire ground rules. Upholding the CFGR, the Angami region NSCN-IM has not been taking any steps despite the repeated provocative action of the 16th Assam Rifles, but if such things continue we will not have any option but to react according to the actions of the security forces.” The note asked the Assam Rifles to desist from “over ruling the laid down ground rules and stop provoking us.” The note was appended by “CAO, Angami region” Zhavotuo and “deputy kilonser” Dr. P Mor.
