Dimapur, September 29 (MExN): The Central Nagaland Tribes Council (CNTC) has reiterated its stand on “disassociation” from the Naga Hoho on “Rongmei recognition as an indigenous tribe of Nagaland.” This was decided during a meeting held on Thursday, September 29, of its “constituent units of three tribal apex bodies.” A press note from the CNTC Media Cell informed that the Council “thoroughly deliberated” on the approach of the Nagaland State Government and the Naga Hoho on forming committees to review the issue. It was resolved that “any issue pertaining to the three tribes in general in regard to the Rongmei tribe recognition will be initiated only under the aegis of the CNTC and not separately.”
