Dimapur, Nov 5 (MExN): The NSCN (IM) today asked its rival NSCN (K) faction to simply retrospect and introspect among themselves before they are bled to death by the plot of their enemies.
A press release issued by the SO MIP of GPRN Joseph stated that by propagating false allegations and assertions with the hope of wining the deceptive victory designed by their enemies, the NSCN (K) are instead smearing the image of the Nagas.
The release stated that ‘body counts’ among the enemies was considered a victory during ancient times, but in this civilized period victory through diplomacy without warfare was the tool of achieving success.
The release alleged that the Khaplang pawns continue to persistently and vainly make misleading and unfounded claims on the events of confrontation with the NSCN (IM)
Citing the Zunheboto battle as an example where the NSCN (K) had made false allegation about the deaths of its rival faction, the NSCN (IM) press release stated that the people were the witnesses to the whole truth about the incident. The release alleged that the NSCN (K) cadres left their death comrades at their now evicted camps and said that ‘the Naga Army’ cannot perform heroic feats like their rival, who left behind their fallen comrade and four other injured cadres at the site of encounter. The statement further asserted that the NSCN (IM) abides by its code of conduct and performs military honor even for its enemies.
The release stated that patriots and heroes have no categorization in the Naga Army and the martyrs are hailed and condoled and their sacrifices remembered and recorded down in the Naga history. The release alleged that the NSCN (K) always backs up their false claims about the death of their rival by putting the word ‘Alee command of the dead’ in ‘their heroic claims’. However, the release stated that the people were the witnesses about the truth. The release lamented that such false claims about killing the cadres of the rival faction only widens the rift among themselves
The release added that the NSCN (IM) keep their national principles and aspirations uncompromised and try to collectively seek beneficial ways instead of capitulating to self inflicting cheap approaches.
