Dimapur, August 29 (MExN): The Government of the People’s Republic of Nagalim has responded to the press note given out by the Assam Riffles published in the August 28th August 2010 issue of local papers wherein the AR stated that ‘One NSCN Cadre was killed’ and ‘five’ others apprehended during the ‘operation in Namsa’. “They wrote that NSCN violated the ‘Ceasefire ground rules’ and that the NSCN were using ‘un-parliamentary language’ on the 27th issue of local papers”, stated a press note from the MIP while adding that the Assam Rifles had themselves stated that when they surrounded the Namsa NSCN Camp there inmates ‘run away’.
“The first point, the Naga Army in the Namsa Camp were running away, which means the Naga Army tried to avoid arm confrontation in honor of the ceasefire agreement”, stated the MIP note adding that it did not mean that the Naga Army were “timid or afraid of the AR”. According to the MIP note, if the Naga Army personal wanted to fight without boasting, “in conventional weapons combat 5/6 of our boys can take on 30/40 Indian armed personnel”.
On the so called ‘Operation in Namsa’, the MIP note wanted to know if there were any provisions in the ceasefire agreement that “Indian Armed forces can carry on Military operation in Nagaland during the ceasefire period”. “What did they meant ‘Operation’ we want to know”!
On the claim that the NSCN/GPRN had been using un-parliamentary, the MIP note wanted to know as to whether “killing and attacking innocent men” was “parliamentary language”. “Don’t be too wise in your craftiness”, the MIP note stated.
The NSCN/GPRN also stated that at present “Nagalim is one of the Islands of peace in the entire World” and wondered as to why the Government of India particularly the Home Ministry was “instigating the AR to disturb the peaceful atmosphere at Nagalim time again”.
