Dimapur, November 25 (MExN): The celebration of the so-called first anniversary of “Naga unification” at Khehoi Camp of the “GPRN/NSCN” is a “a cold comfort for the Nagas as this is the grim reminder to the Nagas of the ‘counterfeit Naga unification’ masterminded by RAW’, the NSCN (IM) stated in a note today.
An MIP note said the “Naga unification day” was made to appear before the Nagas under the “flattering wave represented by Azheto Chophy and his company”. It asserted that the Naga people cannot help but treat the “celebration” as “wild adventurism” and affront to the Nagas. “The language of discrimination only changed color when pressurized by the Naga civil societies to give the exact definition of Naga unification in order to avoid ambiguity but the crime wave that followed only produce chasm. And the face of ‘unity bungle’ as the inevitable consequences of going for dubious means only met the Naga people” the MIP said. According to the MIP, the “joint council meeting” of the NSCN (IM) at Hebron on November 24 was “abashed at the deceitfulness of K-group and going the way of a demagogue”.
“It has taken a contemptuous observation of the celebration of “first anniversary’ of ‘unification of Nagas’ by glorifying themselves in such manner that is bereft of any moral sanctity. NSCN out rightly rejected such act of defying ground reality. The NSCN and the Naga people have no choice but to treat such immoral show off with derision as ‘traitors’ and ‘deserters’ never represents the aspiration of the Naga peoples” the NSCN (IM) said.
The outfit also said many civil society groups “with dubious character, tried desperately to preach Naga unification with evangelical fervor by projecting this group as the face of Naga unification leader”. “But everything went disastrous, and many innocent national workers and civilians died in the process” it added.
“Nevertheless, respecting the sentiments of the Naga people represented by Forum for Naga Reconciliation (FNR) NSCN is not showing any disinclination for Naga unity, rather it has been quite open to pinpoint the road blocks to Naga unification. What really matters now is the sincerity and commitment in doing away with those road blocks by the group in question. However, the Nagas will be watching very keenly how this group members free themselves from being the prisoners of their conscience” the MIP added.
