Tuensang, April 9 (MExN): The Eastern Naga Students’ Federation with its federating units and other organisations of the eastern Naga region have resolved to “proceed with further course of action” on its demand for inclusion of exempted Government departments and posts in the Nagaland Staff Selection Board Regulation (NSSB), 2020.
