In a separate press release issued by the External Affairs Kilonser and former Supervisor of the CFSB, C Singsong today clarified that the NSCN (K) had never approached the Government of India for removal of Lt Gen (rtd) Kulkarni as the Cease Fire Supervisory Board Chairman and refuted the news item that the Centre is mulling to change the CFSB and CFMG chairman to placate the NSCN (K).
The release clearly stated that change or removal of the CFSB chairman was the prerogative of the Centre’s unilateral decision where the NSCN (K) has no say. However, the release stated that the NSCN (K) has been insisting the GOI to create a separate CFSB chairman, though the Centre is yet to comply. The release stated that “implicating GPRN, NSCN’s interests as the basis of change of guard is unfounded and baseless”.
The release further cautioned the Press and Media to be careful in their reporting in order not to create more chaos and confusions in the interest of on going peace process.
The release also refuted the story that the centre had initiated the change of CFSB, CFMG Chairman mainly to placate GPRN, NSCN so as to garner GPRN’S support in flushing out ULFA from Myanmar dominated Naga Areas .Such baseless coverage creates more confusion, which needs rectification and more clarity in future, stated the release.
