Dimapur: In response to the AZ Jami’s press interview which appeared in a local daily on September 16, Kilo Kilonser of the NSCN (I-M) Rh. Raising has commented, “We do not believe in mudslinging politics. “I appreciate the personal comments made by AZ Jami. However, it should be known that the worth of a man is naturally measured by the yardstick of his achievements and not otherwise.”
He has also talked of Jami’s leaving the NNC camp to join the Isak-Muivah faction and his subsequent entry in the fold of the Khaplang faction. “Today he left us to join the Khaplang group on this and that pretext, and people wonder where he will be tomorrow again,” Raising added.
He further said that AZ Jami should not overrate Khaplang and himself. “It is wise on their part to reduce themselves to their own sizes. Even if we are forced to part with each other on ground of the heinous political sin of S.S Khaplang’s abortive coup attempt, we are ready to forgive everyone provided that they realize their past. However wide and deep the wounds may be, we believe it can be healed through mutual understanding, interaction, admission of mistakes and spirit of brotherhood. I believe a time will come when we are united and the day is not far off,” Raising said.
