Jalukie (MExN): Elated by the success of “Operation Salvage”, a rehabilitation center at Heningkunglwa, the NSCN-IM said that more such centers were in the offing in other parts of Nagaland. The organization yesterday announced that two more rehabilitation center for drug addicts, one in the Ao region and another in the Tangkul regions were on the anvil.
“The government is in the process of opening up more centers in other parts also”, said V Horam, Deputy Kilo Kilonser yesterday while addressing the inaugural function of the Men’s Volley Ball Tournament being organized by inmates of Operation Salvage.
Few months back, the success of Operation Salvage, which the NSCN-IM had likened to call as the social-based pilot project of the GPRN, had prompted the establishment of similar center in the ‘Union Territory-1’. The GPRN credited the unprecedented success of Operation Salvage to its Tatar, David Parei. V. Horam said that all the centers would be following the same pattern of self reliance and management, modeled on Operation Salvage. He also said that the centers would be institutions for learning towards self development as well as a new beginning.
Expressing concern over the rise of drug addictions and AIDS cases in Nagaland, the Organization said that it was dreadful to imagine what the future holds for the Naga nation when the dreams of resourceful youths were being shattered and rendered to a state of hopelessness. “With the active cooperation from the people, NSCN shall continue to work for total transformation of our society”, said V. Horam, adding this effort was with the sole vision of salvaging the Naga youths from doom.
