What right India has to hang on Indo-Naga political issue and let Naga letting blood run red in the country for last 60 years? A report in “Statement paper Calcutta on 20th April 1956” A total of Rs. 85,55,2660 were spent by Assam government for maintenance of law and order on Naga hills. Since the out break of disturbance the government had provided Rs.39 millions during 1957-1958 budgets for operation in Naga Hills. A sum of Rs. 40 millions damage had been admitted by the government of India. Beside damage of property worth of Rs. 80 million, lost of hundred thousand human lives. Can we imaging 60 years military expenditure for last 60 years. Asking human right was out of question even a Sergeant was authorized to kill, if he thinks right. No amount of suffering of Naga people can describe who have seen the nightmare situation those days.
It is hypocrisy of a leader who preaches none-violence and practice violence. When the world community celebrated Mahatma Gandhi 128th Birth Anniversary was the first None-Violence day on 2nd October, 2007. The world admired his philosophy as his dream was translated into reality and adapted his philosophy to deal in world peace. Mrs. Sonia Gandhi said “Victory come not from might but come from moral courage to resistance of submission from imposition”. Dr. Manmohon Singh said’ People may wonder of what use is none-violence in the present day, but it is relevant even today as the way of life and governing the country” India claim and proud of champion of Human right.
Have India forgotten all what they have done to Naga People? India also must aware of the spirit of Afro-Asia solidarity conference Agreement, was it not India become leader of None- Alignments conference which proclaim the right of people for self determination of indigenous people.
How can India denied that India liberation force help Mukti Behani reminded from East Pakistan and make then Bangladesh. A few months back it appeared in “Outlook Magazine” dated on 14th February, 2011, Ashok Mehta who was GOC Indian Army Liberation Force Command on the August 16, 1971 was invited in Bangladesh Independence Day.
Chief of Army General Abdul Muken his welcome address he said “Without you we would not be a country”.
It will happen to Naga People, if India does not believe the right of Naga People.
Mike Woold Dridge reported in BBC on 10/10/1997 that “If you are from Britain you will be asked by some with a great courtesy to convey to the Queen a request that she should apologies for Britain for letting the Naga down”. Should Naga expect from the President of India to apology to Naga People.
Naga are wondering what India has right to prolong the Indo-political issue. Can India expect Naga to give up?
Naga had agreed to make Cease-fire with India three times. But no leader has political will to solve Naga problem. We personally met 8 Prime Ministers and 10 Home Ministers in different Regime. And all of them acknowledge Nagaland is political must solve with honorable and acceptable.
It may be true what Simsanjit Singh then the president of Seromonni Akali Dal observed “India with its might won’t carry on the talk but happy to tire out Naga leader or win over with money and promise of power within the current India system that has been the policy in the hinder Indian with a political dissent. If a Naga leader holds with their demands only alternative would to go back to bush.” It would have been different story. If Naga people were given self determination, at the time when Great Britain gives up his crown, by now we should have been develop as any other Asian country with dignity and pride. But we were oppressed and suppressed with black law for the last sixty years. Nagas are wondering what India has right to beep Naga, by force.
India must learn lesson from Russian, Michael Carbochev then the leader, “Who said it is possible to suppress bribes, Break or blast, but only certain period; from the point of view of long term big time politic no one will be able to subordinate other”.
