DIMAPUR, FEBRUARY 1 (MExN): The Angami Baptist Church Council (ABCC) has expressed its “utter disappointment” at the Nagaland State Government “for giving a deaf ear to the voices of the people pertaining to ULB election in Nagaland, resulting in loss of lives, including one of its members, and several injuries.” A press note from the ABCC stated that Nagaland “has just witnessed what can happen when leaders do not listen. The people have raised their voice in series of protest earlier, and yesterday with their very own lives.” It urged the government to “wake up and address the issues which every Naga holds so dearly in his or her being.” It meanwhile conveyed condolences to the bereaved families.
