GPRN/NSCN (U) condemns statement 
Dimapur, November 1 (MExN): The GPRN/NSCN (U) has expressed shock at the “intolerable mischief of a statement by Toshi Walling, dragging in GPRN/NSCN (U) while supposedly terminating his own President, UNPG/NNC (PB).” The GPRN/NSCN (U) through its MIP stated that “To accuse Kiviho Zhimomi, President UNPG/NNC (PB) of being an undercover agent of GPRN/NSCN is quite absurd and we reject it out rightly. The insinuation is deeply regrettable as there is a clear fingerprint of Toshi Walling’s handlers at work.” It added that “GPRN/NSCN (U) led by President Gen. (Retd) MB Neopao Konyak and Ato Kilonser Alezo Venuh, is an institution of the Naga People and it will not tolerate deviated and sold-out elements to question the integrity of the people’s government.”
