Phek/Pfutsero, August 3 (MExN): The NPF Peren division has criticized the resolution of NPF Central Executive Council emergency meeting held on July 25, which recommended for dissolution of NPF Peren division and all frontal organisations for siding with expelled legislators.
A press statement from Haigam Kauring, President, NPF Peren division termed the resolutions adopted in the meeting as “nothing but a raw and immature decision of some few senior NPF party functionaries to incapacitate the oldest regional party of the North East Region.”
Stating that the resolutions lacked constitutional validity and totally impracticable on ground, the NPF Peren division condemned “such self-willed decision of some senior NPF party functionaries” and called upon all NPF party workers to invalidate such fractious resolutions for the larger interest of the NPF party and the NPF led DAN Government.”
Meanwhile, the statement appealed to all NPF party workers to remain calm and join hands to salvage the party from complete annihilation instead of creating further misunderstanding amongst the party workers by “resolving radical resolutions or issuing dictatorial expulsion and suspension orders.”

In a separate statement, the NPF 16th A/C Pfutsero lamented that despite its unflinching support to the parent body, the unit and few other NPF assembly constituencies as well as some other constituencies represented by some independent MLAs were dissolved “without any valid reason or observing party rule/regulations in an arbitrary manner.”
It also condemned the “unprovoked power” exercised by Dr. Shürhozelie Liezietsu, “which is not only invalid and unconstitutional but extremely unacceptable in a democratic set-up.” While welcoming the interim NPF president Neiphiu Rio and expressing “unflinching support” to the new leadership, the statement by issued by General Secretary Vizo Lea and President Dingulo Khutsoh also pledged to “continue its endeavour to strengthen the NPF party.”
