Dimapur, October 21 (MExN): The Adinno Phizo-led NNC today said the Naga society ‘measures up to the intelligence of other societies’ but “somewhat seen very light weight in respect of political arena.” President of the NNC Adinno Phizo issued a copy of a letter addressed to “dear national workers” in the backdrop of a meeting of the outfit’s central executive committee and NNC meeting on October 20.
She said that the “imperative of NNC at this time concerns educating the new generation with sound knowledge of modern Nagaland and why in conflict with India.” According to her, ‘any self-respecting society knows that knowledge is the essential tool to progress in any discipline, be it freedom of a nation.’
“Naga society has measure up to the intelligence of other societies but somewhat seen very light weight in respect of political arena. It is by no means smart to blithely flirt along the path of political wilderness,” Phizo said.
In her letter, Phizo said twenty years have lapsed since she was most unexpectedly elected to NNC office on the passing away of AZ Phizo “in the interest of continuity and stability.”
Phizo appreciated “the unswerving support and faithful prayers of our people” in pursuing “Naga nation fundamental stand on freedom in consonant with the yehzabo (constitution) of Nagaland.”
“In the present time, we live in a fast changing world, except for the people of Nagaland it remains much the same on account of the Indian occupation army militarized tyranny since the invasion of Nagaland in 1954,” she stated.
Nevertheless, she said, “in today’s connected age,” the Government of India can no longer conceal “trampling over the freedom of Naga nation.” “The massive concentration of Indian occupation army in Nagaland over six decades clearly belies GoI empty claim that Nagaland is an integral part of India because the deployment of regular army against Indian citizens contravenes the Indian Constitution,” the NNC president stated.
“To restore peace between the two nations, it is in India’s interest to withdraw her army and respect the sovereignty of Nagaland,” she said.
On the “prevailing anarchic state of affairs,” the NNC president said her organization “steadfastly refused to be distracted by the relentless enemy’s evil designs to sow discord so as to break the cohesion of Naga society and deny the existence of Nagaland.” Any “crazy idea by GoI” to thrust a “proxy vassal administration” is ‘absurd’ and totally unacceptable, she said.
“Bearing in mind the fast changing world, FGN and NNC must stand ready to meet any challenge ahead on the integrity of Nagaland,” Phizo explained.
