A resolution is not enough, NPCC to Nagaland state BJP

DIMAPUR, APRIL 30 (MExN): The Nagaland Pradesh Congress Committee (NPCC) today stated that “if there is any truth in the minds of the State BJP to safeguard the Christian faith and identity of Nagas…just a resolution is not enough.”

  In a press note today, the NPCC President, K Therie said that if the state unit of the party is serious about their commitment towards the Christian faith, it should “join secular front to fight the nuisance designs of RSS and BJP.”  

“For the first time we have heard that the State BJP is coming to some sense hearing the cry of the people,” it said, while adding that “we cannot underestimate RSS, the guardian of BJP, for no war is greater than an ideological war.”

  “It all began in 1925 with the objective to have a Hindu Nation with racial purity rule as their philosophy. It has 6million volunteers deeply trained and 6,000 schools educating RSS ideology. BJP workers are all hardcore RSS. No BJP General Secretary is married so that they can devote full time. They always plan long term programmes. The RSS think-tank is one of the longest serving think-tanks planning against the principles of secularism,” the NPCC alleged.  

“To demean and forget Christian holy days like Christmas Day, Good Friday, Holy Saturday and Easter Sunday, the BJP Government has declared them as official functioning days. Hindi and Sanskrit is compulsory in schools. There is a proposal to read the Bhagwat Gita as the National Book. These programs and changes are long term programmes in just three years of BJP,” the NPCC stated. Warning that “the danger is near and real,” the Congress claimed that “when they get majority in the Rajya Sabha and in the number of States, they will force the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) where Special Provisions under Art. 370 and 371(A), (B), (C), etc., will become dormant.”  

On that day, it cautioned “we will lose our identity.” The UCC, it claimed, would “mean to RSS a Hindu Nation, Hindu religion, one personal law and one tax.”
