It also asserted that “NSCN (IM) is directly taking part in Indian election through the services of NGOs of Manipur and Nagaland States under the banner of Naga Sovereignty”, resulting to students careers being jeopardized and the NGO leaders both in Nagaland and Manipur are put at ransom. In regard to the NSCN (IM) involvement in the Manipur state election, the NSCN (K) stated that they are “agent of AICC President Sonia Gandhi and BJP leader L K Advani” and they were given “free hand to suppress the Freedom of Rights of the people and made the voters cast their vote against their will”.
It also stated that the Naga people should retrospect and stand for their own rights against the “misadventure” of the NSCN (IM) and not to feel intimidated. It further stated that the “NSCN (K) will not remain a silent spectator while the NSCN (IM) or the money mongers are keeping the general public at ransom and suppressing their freedom of rights and expression in the name of Naga Sovereignty”.
