Expressing serious concern on the need to strengthen the ongoing peace process, the new team of Naga Students’ Federation (NSF) today announced that it will ceaselessly work with utmost sincerity for unity and reconciliation.
“We will give our best effort to maintain peace, understanding and tranquility within the Naga family,” NSF president Imchatoba Imchen told the press conference here this afternoon in his office chamber.
The Federation also appealed to all Naga communities particularly to the factions to immediately shun factional killings and come together to work cohesively for the ultimate vision and the right of the Nagas. Imchen stated that the NSF will be meeting all the factions and express its mind.
Further, Imchen lamented the infrastructure of Nagaland University (NU) is not up to satisfaction. The Federation was also of the view that professional and career oriented-courses should be focused on by the NU.
Stating that the NSF will take up the issue of illegal immigrant with seriousness, Imchen said that the Federation is on preparatory stage to gather various information, adding that unless “we intervene and control it now,” it will adversely affect the future.
The president also informed that the Federation was contemplating to first advocate the people, adding that power-point presentations would also be initiated on the issue.
On affiliation of private schools to NBSE, the president said that the Federation will pursue it with utmost sincerity and dedication.
The NSF will continue to work in combating the menace of HIV/AIDS in the state, Imchen said. Other areas to be addressed by the Federation include redeployment of teachers and superannuation issue. The newly elected team of the NSF assumed the office on May 22 for the tenure 2007-09.
