Promoting Nagamese unacceptable: APO

DIMAPUR, FEBRUARY 12 (MExN): The Angami Public Organization (APO) on Friday said it will not accept the idea of promoting the “so-called Nagamese as one of the official language of the Nagas.”  APO president, Dr Vilhusa Seleyi in a press statement said the idea of promoting Nagamese is unacceptable because the lingua franca has no literature and no origin, which therefore “does not have the merit to be called a language.” The APO also resolved to support the present status quo of English language as the official language and at the same time encourage Hindi, the National language for the benefit of future generation.
