Dimapur, July 10 (MExN): The Nagaland Pradesh Congress Committee on Saturday said the resolutions adopted by the Nagaland government’s Parliamentary Core Committee on Naga Political Issue ignored and nullified the Framework Agreement and Agreed Points which was signed between the centre and the NSCN (IM) and Working Committee, Naga National Political Groups respectively.
“The resolutions are bereft of feasible and practical directives,” NPCC President K Therie said in a press release while condemning the resolutions. Therie also said the resolutions have insulted the stakeholders and are in a direct confrontation with Governor RN Ravi, who is also the Centre’s Interlocutor for the Naga peace talks.
“Appealing to resume talks does not make any sense when the Governor has already stated in the State Assembly in the month of February 2021 that talks are over for Nagaland,” the press release stated.
According to the NPCC, the members of the committee also undermined 24 years of hard negotiations and public sufferings, “by way of multiple extortion.”
“The eloquence of the Core Committee is clearly with intent to delay implementation of solution to save their personal positions and chairs and to please NSCN (IM),” it alleged, while pointing out that the NSCN (IM) had cautioned the core committee not to dilute the Framework Agreement.
The implementation of FA, it said would be done by the Government of India and “The interpretation of FWA will be done by the Parliament finally, for what is givable will be realistic solution.”
Referring to the committee’s stance that it is prepared to pave the way as and when an inclusive, honorable and acceptable solution is arrived at, the NPCC stated that “They only need to cooperate and impress upon the Governor for implementation. Core Committee is wastage of time and is meaningless.”
