DIMAPUR, APRIL 2 (MExN): The Central Nagaland Women Association (CNWA) has lauded the the Nagaland Legislative Assembly (NLA) and the Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio for repealing the Nagaland Municipal Act, 2001, “which infringed upon the rights of the Nagas.” A press release from the CNWA said that it supports the “significant decision, bearing in mind that the taxes on land and building were clearly in violation of Article 371A of the Indian Constitution.” Looking forward, the CNWA called for expediting the process of the enactment of a new Municipal Act for the State of Nagaland, along with consultations and deliberations with the various stakeholders involved. The CNWA also appealed for conducting the ULB elections at the earliest for the benefit of society.
