Church should play an active role in changing the election scenario in the State, said Home Minister Y Patton during the dedication of Yimkha Baptist Church under Wokha district.
Church, he added, should be the first to be an agent of change for clean election in Nagaland, where 90 percent of the population is Christians.
The Home Minister also said church should not only focus on religious activities but also take up social issues, which are corrupting the society.
Patton also called upon the citizens to unite and come together for developmental aspects, keeping aside differences in political party.
He further urged them not to create enemies because of different political parties, while stressing that election is just a norm of democracy.
Earlier, the church was dedicated by Rev. Nyanchumo Lotha, Executive Secretary, LBES, while the sermon was delivered by Rev. R Lotha, Tsungiki Baptist Church. Short message was also delivered by Ex-MLA Yankithung Yanthan
