Kohima, September 10 (MExN): The Naga Students’ Federation (NSF) has appealed to the Government of Nagaland to urgently intervene and facilitate the safe return of Naga students and youths currently stranded in Nepal due to the ongoing political crisis there.
In a memorandum addressed to the Chief Secretary of Nagaland, the Federation expressed deep concern over the plight of those who had gone to Nepal for academic and professional pursuits but are now facing “grave uncertainty and distress.”
The NSF urged the State Government to coordinate with the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), Government of India, and other relevant agencies to arrange travel support, documentation, and transit assistance. The Federation further requested that suitable arrangements be made upon their arrival in Nagaland, including logistical support and immediate relief where necessary.
Such timely intervention, it maintained, would bring “immense relief” not only to the stranded individuals but also to their anxious families back home.
Reiterating its commitment to the welfare of Naga students globally, the NSF sought the “kind consideration and prompt action” of the Government on the urgent humanitarian matter.
