No one is above the Nation; No one is above the National Yehzabo” is boldly written on the front page of the NSCN constitution. The emergency session of the National Tatar Hoho was convened today at the Oking, GPRN/NSCN, to deliberate on the unceremonious and unconstitutional action of Chairman S.S Khaplang who, without the consent and approval of the National Assembly, removed one of the senior most freedom fighters in South East Asia and widely respected Naga political figure Gen. Khole Konyak, Commander-in-Chief of the Naga Army. Chairman S.S Khaplang’s haphazardous dismissal of a revered Collective Leader and also unilaterally filling up the vacant post of Vice Chairmanship in the NSCN, widely regarded as undeclared position held by Gen. Khole Konyak, was outrightly rejected by the August assembly. The arbitrary action of the Chairman, who also ordered non-participation of GPRN/NSCN in the Naga political Groups meeting of 18th September 2010 and all subsequent Naga Reconciliation meetings was thoroughly discussed by the National Assembly. He not only hampered FNR’s efforts to bring peace and reconciliation in Naga homeland but also remained non-committal on all the burning issues owing to his self-exiled nature of existence for more than ten years. The dictatorial and remote controlled type of administration, overruling even National Hoho resolutions of Nov. 2009 and other important national programmes was condemned by the national Assembly.
The highly undemocratic and unconstitutional governance over the years clearly contradicted the National Yehzabo and placed the Naga Nation at a perilous path. A decisive hour was deemed necessary for which the impeachment proceeding against Chairman S.S Khaplang was put in motion by speaker of the National Tatar Hoho. Every single member of the August house with raised right hand demanded expulsion and impeachment of Mr. S.S Khaplang, Chairman of the NSCN party and President of the People’s Republic of Nagaland. The Assembly also witnessed nineteen Regional Chairmen and representatives of different regions in Naga homeland appending their signatures supporting impeachment of Mr. S.S Khaplang for wilful violation of the National Yehzabo. As per the democratic norms and as empowered by the National Yehzabo, the Speaker of the Tatar Hoho, Hevukhu Yeptho, pronounced the verdict of the Naga people. The position and status of a reclusive yet dictatorial Naga Leader S.S Khaplang has, therefore, been decisively shut out by the Naga people. The historic moment was witnessed by both the old and new generation Naga freedom fighters with a strong sense of justice and renewed commitment towards resolving issues confronting GPRN/NSCN in particular and Naga people in general.
