Dimapur, April 18 (MExN): The Naga Students’ Federation (NSF) today appealed to the Naga public to exercise utmost restraint in their actions towards fellow beings and not resort to acts that will portray the society in a bad light.
The NSF’s appeal comes a day after the Nagaland Police made arrests in connection with videos that showed some individuals “being physically screened by a car tape recorder,” and another that showed some youth physically assaulting ‘non locals’ went viral.
The NSF condemned the incidents and the “insensitivity of the individuals” stating that “the Naga society is not one which promotes discrimination on communal and racial lines as the principle of equity and justice has been the basic ethos of our people.”
“The NSF therefore appeal to the Naga public to exercise utmost restraint in their dealings with our fellow beings and not resort to acts which will portray our society in bad light in the eyes of the world beyond us,” the message stated.
Further, it appealed the authorities concerned to take cognizance of such acts and ensure that strict action is initiated against the perpetrators of such unwanted acts.
