Looking at the present situation created by the issues in the name of Naga Independence and may be un-ending starting of New Groups I just a layman would like to ask few foolish Questions from Naga (s) intellectuals and Naga National workers to just take away their precious few minutes but in no way any Groups or Organization is targeted.
1. What is the total population of Naga’s all over the world.
2. How many lives has been lost due to Naga political issue” figure it out the killings between Naga and Naga Brothers? Nagas and Indian’s? Nagas and Myanmar?
3. Why Naga Groups are fighting among same blood? Are they fighting for popularity, taxation and Area dominance for their respected Groups? Is the other Groups a stumbling stone while negotiation with India or Myanmar Governments.
4. Is the lower ranks and workers of different Groups brain washed in some highly advanced machines to hate their brothers of some blood and to earn as much as they can and give to their leaders so that they live in luxurious bungalows, travel in expensive cars and to spent lavishly for their spoiled and spendthrift children’s.
5. Why do the leaders feels the other Groups as weak and unmatchable to their group? Why the leaders feels or compare the Naga issue to personal Clan, Tribe, Advance and Backward etc…… which again creates more differences?
6. Why politicians specially the elected Representative seek support form Naga Groups according to their Area dominance and popularity for their selfish gains which again sows the seeds of hatred among Naga Groups because the defeated politician is sure to seek support from another Group to take revenge on his political rival, if politicians are not educated and till they understand the value of their position there is no meaning of spending time, money and energy by NGO(s), Tribal Bodies for Reconciliations?
7. Can we find out the actual total of Nagas recruited in POLICE, IRB, CRPF, REGIMENTS…… etc will they obey their pay master and the mighty GOI if they are given order to fight against Naga Groups, will the GOI plans a policy to create a big war between Naga Groups and Naga General Public aided by them? If this happen who will be the loser or what will be the future of Nagas?
8. Is the GOI planning to create many new States for Naga Groups from the present Indian state of Nagaland, Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh etc in agreement with TRIBAL Bodies and different Naga Groups according to their Area Dominance and popularity controlled by them? If this happens, will killing among Naga brothers be stopped and Naga issue be solved permanently?
9. If killing among us is not stopped and if it continues only few thousand Nagas will be left to defend our land when the actual battle for independence declares between Nagas with INDIA, MYANMAR etc.
Therefore, we cannot expect any Naga to come out extraordinary than others whether it is in the field of Education, Business…. Etc in this fast inflicted to every Naga young and old and even the freedom of speech and expression has been put to dead-end due to chronic problems among us with decisions FOR and AGAINST supported by different Naga Groups.
Everyone should have right sense of judgment and should appreciate any Naga Groups if they are willing to shun the path of violence for better tomorrow because we all don’t want to be a part of Extinction history where Scientist/Researchers will note, suppose “The race of people call NAGAS had a population of more the…… etc but due to their struggle and war for freedom their population has come down to…..and now only few hundreds and thousands have survived……. and chances for increase in their population is also doubtful due to different ill-effects from heavy war…. So, the forum of scientists has began to conduct survey and experiments with the few remaining Nagas for finding out why ‘NAGAS’ are on the verge of extinction.
