DIMAPUR, SEPTEMBER 6 (MExN): The Nagaland GB Federation (NGBF) on Thursday said it is committed to peace and harmony of the Nagas wherever they are and continue to work for inclusive solution that will take everyone on board for a lasting peace solution to the protracted Naga political problems.
The NGBF in a press release maintained that it has been appealing to Naga Political Groups (NPGs) to lay aside their differences and unit for the sake of a secure future. It expressed apprehension that exclusiveness will be a root of further division and deeper misunderstanding as experienced in past Indo-Naga history.
“We don’t want a repeat of the history of dividing Nagas into different groups, sections and more. Therefore the Federation has been harping on inclusive solution and will continue to uphold the principle of unity,” it asserted.
While pointing out that the Government of India is having political dialogue with 7 (seven) NPGs, the NGBF said it is the bounden duty of every Naga citizen to play a mediator role. Likewise, it has being appealing to GOI to officially invite NSCN (K) and NNC (Adino) to the negotiation table because inclusivity is the way forward, the press release added.
UNC, Naga Hoho joint declaration unacceptable
Meanwhile, the NGBF said it is perturbed by the joint declaration issued by Naga Hoho and United Naga Council (UNC) of Manipur on August 23, 2018 at TNK Community Hall, Senapati Village.
Terming the declaration as ‘arrogant and unpalatable’ imposition on the Nagas and therefore unacceptable, the NGBF said it out rightly reject the attempt of UNC and Naga Hoho to impose its will on the Nagas (Nagaland).
