NSCN (K) gets tough on Naga NGOs, State govt

DIMAPUR, AUGUST 15 (MExN): The NSCN (K) has now decided to cut-off all communications with the Naga Hoho, NSF and NPMHR with effect from August 14 and resolved to treat them at par with what it termed as “IM terrorists”. An MIP statement issued by the NSCN (K) pointed out that it had viewed the Naga Hoho, NSF and NPMHR as NGOs  which should be neutral and impartial in their dealings with different sections of the Naga society in all social matters. “And whereas, the above organization deviated from their actual responsibilities and acted as political parties prejudicial to the Naga revolutionary organizations”, the NSCN (K) stated further adding that it had, with sustained patience issued to them repeated suggestions, advices and cautions and also invited them for discussions to thrash out all misunderstanding in the interest of the Naga people and the Naga nation, “which they defiantly refused to meet the NSCN leaders”. 

The NSCN (K) alleged that the NGO organizations acted as “auxiliary bodies of the I-M terrorist and have become partakers in the genocides and fratricides committed”. An MIP statement issued by the NSCN (K) informed that it had resolved on certain other key issues as per a joint meeting of the Council of Kilonsers, CCMs and Secretaries held on August 14.

The joint meeting has also unanimously resolved to issue a final warning to the NSF and the Nagaland State Government against their move and campaign for affiliation of the schools in the “so-called Naga Hill districts of Manipur on the NBSE”. Further, any MLA in the present Nagaland Legislative Assembly supporting the move to this effect will be at his or her own risk. “No separate order will be issued in this connection”, the meeting resolved.  

The NSCN (K) further resolved that any nation or international NGOs working in collaboration with the NSCN (IM) in the name of Nagas’ self-determination will be boycotted and banned by the group. It was also decided to invite the Naga Mothers Association (NMA) leaders for interaction and discussions on what the NSCN (K) stated as “certain misgivings on the part of the NMA” and to this end, invited the NMA leaders to meet the NSCN (K) leaders at Mon on or before August 24, 2006.

The NSCN (K) also decided that as per “apology tendered through media by the Editor and Staffs of the Morung Express regarding some of their misrepresentations against the NSCN, and also through understanding arrived at on August 12, 2006, between the representatives of the NSCN/GPRN and that of the Morung Express”, the ban imposed on the paper by the NSCN (K) is lifted with effect from August 14, 2006.
