DIMAPUR, AUGUST 4 (MExN): The Nagaland People’s Action Committee (NPAC) has clarified on the “social media disinformation” regarding the August 5 public rally for a Naga political solution. “The post with Naga Flag and the reasons targeting the Naga negotiators and facilitators is not from the NPAC and therefore it stands rejected. The NPAC appeals to the public not to be carried away by such disinformation,” a press release from the NPAC said.
Meanwhile, the Kohima Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Phek District Chamber of Commerce & Industry (PDCCI) and Mokokchung Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MCCI) have appealed to all business establishments in their respective districts to shutter-down all business activities from 10:00 am to 12:00 noon on August 5 in solidarity with the NPAC rally.
