Mon (MExN): Konyak Union President Tingnei and Vice President Naowang in a joint statement stated that no one can dictate the Konyak community whose stand was unshakeable.
“The Konyaks know and see the arrogant and dictatorial attitude of some Naga leaders which may prove disastrous and dangerous for Naga unity,” continued the KU officials. The KU also maintained that they regretfully see the ‘wrong movements of some responsible Naga NGOs whose aim is shallow and empty’ and are blindly supporting wrong ideologies unmindful of the outcome.
The KU termed it as a ‘foolish act’ their participation in the integration rally. The KU further stated that the NGOs, instead of ‘standing to correct the wrong movements of the nation’, had become ‘inflammable fuels which would only add flame to the Naga political movement. The above statement come in the wake of a statement issued in a leading local daily by a person going by the name of Y Konyak.
In this regard, the KU has summoned Y Konyak of Dimapur for explanation and justification of his statement wherein he had taken the name of the entire Konyak community in support of the Naga Integration rally which was held at Kohima on August 31 last.
The KU has stated that it suspects some people with vested interests for bringing out such a ‘mischievous’ article. Further, the KU has requested the Editor of the concerned daily to produce the statement given by the said person to the KU branch, Dimapur at the earliest for identification of the person concerned.
