Dimapur, February 28 (MExN): A new organization called ‘Nagaland Public Rights Awareness and Action Forum (NPRAAF)’ was formally launched in Dimapur on February 27, 2016 with the motto, ‘Justice for All’. The Forum was launched with the main objective of providing a stable platform for the deprived and suppressed sections of the society, a press release from NPRAAF stated.
The Forum, according to the release, was formed by “like-minded individuals comprising social activists, lawyers and scholars who will unwaveringly and strongly work towards the delivery of justice for all strata of the society.”
To be a mouthpiece for the unspeakable, NPRAAF will provide a platform for any individual or group whose due rights are denied in any public, private or government establishment, the release stated, adding the Forum will endeavour to create awareness on public rights, benefits and responsibilities.
“As such, NPRAAF will entertain genuine grievances of any individual or group and highlight their plight to the appropriate authorities to ensure that their problems are addressed conclusively. Legal assistance will also be provided where rights and privileges are denied by the system unlawfully.”
NPRAAF further asserted it will strongly fight for the genuine rights of citizens in a democratic way and within the established law. It will also carry out welfare programmes that will directly or indirectly benefit the citizens.
NPRAAF headquarters will be based in Dimapur from where its wings will be spread across the State.
The NPRAAF is composed of seven office bearers headed by Wedieu Kronu as President and Hito Swu as Secretary. For more information, one can contact the following: email - npraaf16@gmail.com, phone -9862271646.
