DIMAPUR, APRIL 3 (MExN): The Naga national Council today said a political slogan uttered by Special Emissary to the NSCN (IM) Collective Leadership VS Atem was incorrect. A local daily had earlier quoted Atem as saying that “a solution to the Nagas will not fall from heaven” during a meeting with Western Angami Nagas. “Then, will a solution to the Nagas come up from hell?” Thomas, an NNC member said in a release.
“This slogan of IM leaders clearly manifested that they never regard or believe that God has bestowed the sovereignty to the Nagas,” he said. It was further alleged that the NSCN (IM) has adopted another resolution to “finish up the NNC.” Saying that the IM had climbed down from the demand of sovereignty and is now looking for a political solution, Thomas said, “The Nagas are not fighting for a political solution within the Indian Union, but just defending God’s gift (of) sovereignty.”
