Dimapur, December 14 (MExN): The NSCN (K) has claimed that statements emanating from the NSCN (IM) on the issue of the recent unification move as reported in the local dailies are “fake” and that the Nagas should not be confused. The NSCN (K) in a press note issued by its MIP informed that some vested interest persons who are against unity and reconciliation among the Naga groups have written in the name of the “so called MIP and also in the name of Khadao Yanthan.”. “All the statements are usually written by some subtle Tangkhuls to hoodwink and confuse the Naga general public”, the NSCN (K) claimed adding that the statements were all fake and figment of imagination of some Tangkhuls and that the Naga public should be advised not to be confused and swayed by such “make believe” statements written by “bogus persons” but to “search out the truth and origin of such write-ups”.
Responding to the allegations that the present “unity process has not been initiated through proper channel but through the back door without approval of the appropriate authorities”, the NSCN (K) then questioned, as to why “no organizations or individuals had initiated the unity process even after shouting for peace and unity for the last more than a decade?” “And what was wrong if any one has taken the lead in the move?” it stated.
The NSCN (K) as such appealed to all to come for unity and reconciliation and advised that “all other past differences should be thrashed out across the table through the unity process in calmness”. The NSCN (K) affirmed that it will pursue the unity and reconciliation process with renewed strength, “whether there is ceasefire or no ceasefire and no matter whether the move has been initiated without proper channel or canal or tunnel”. The NSCN (K) also stated that “no matter whether it was through backdoor or bypass or over bridge, if unity comes at all, half sovereignty is achieved”.
The NSCN (K) affirmed that “the next goal will be pursued with united and collective wisdom” and that those who oppose the current unity and reconciliation process “be cursed creatures”. “Let the blood of the innocent Nagas that has already been shed be on their heads. Beware of fake and falsehoods”, it stated.
