He underscored the importance of promoting the right narrative, one rooted in the absolute denouncement of the BJP’s divisive ideology.
Rueing the state of utter corruption existing in Nagaland today, Tilak said “the Congress party was the only alternative capable of dismantling this pervasive culture of decadence and ineptitude engineered and championed by the government of the day.”
