Opposition Congress today reiterated that it will support any solution above statehood, but rubbished the DAN equi-closeness policy stating that it has created a schism even amongst the NGOS and the civil societies.
I Imkong, Leader of Opposition participating in the motion on amendment of Governor’s address also dwelt on the need to reconsider its facilitator’s role of the state government, and stated that as a facilitator, the government must be able say “stop fighting”.
He said the Congress is willing to support the government on any issue but not at the cost of their political stand.
Imkong further came down heavily on DAN’s equi-closeness policy, belittling that the much-hyped policy is a complete failure. As such, it has to be re-examined, he maintained.
Leader of the opposition also said that if the state government is a genuine felicitator they must be able to acquire information from the GOI and the NSCNs on the latest outcome of the talks and must be able to tell the people what is going on in the talks.
Imkong fervently stated that at no point of time he had supported the equi-closeness policy of the DAN government. He instead cautioned that this policy will destroy the very fabric of the Naga society.
