Dimapur, February 6 (MExN): Amid the demands for resignation of the Chief Minister and his cabinet, the Socialist Party (India) today demanded that the present NPF led DAN government be dissolved and President’s Rule be invoked.
In a press statement, Akhei Achumi, National Vice President, SP (I) stated that the Governor of Nagaland can ask the Chief Minister to step down on moral ground as “he has no moral right to occupy the Chief Minister’s chair.” People’s elected members, Achumi said, must listen to the voice of the people, but the NPF led DAN government failed to listen to the voice of the people.
Meanwhile, the Socialist Party (India) expressed pain and condemnation over the series of events leading to the deaths of two youth and loss of many properties following the announcement to conduct ULB elections with 33% reservation for women. It accused the government of playing an integral part in creating the conflict.
In this regard, the party further said that the Chief Minister TR Zeliang lacks wisdom “otherwise he can ask his Home Minister to step down from his chair on moral ground.” The statement added, “The NPF leaders are responsible for the last 14 years of NPF misrule in Nagaland.”
