DIMAPUR SEPT 18 (MExN): The NSCN (K) has extended the ‘Quit notice’ to Tangkhuls in Dimapur region besides areas of Zeliangrong, Yimchunger, Phom, Khiamniungan, Shepourmaramth and Amamncht; Pangmi, Thungniu, Athibung, Tirap and Changlang in response to what it termed as another preventive strategy against the “terrorists”. This latest quit notice comes in the backdrop of an earlier similar notice issued for the Sumi, Lotha, Konyak, Ao, Angami, Chakhesang, Sangtam and Tisary regions.
To go with the quit notice, the regions existing under NSCN (K) have decided to exclude Ukhrul (Home land of Tangkhuls) from the political map of Nagaland to give a new movement to Indo-Naga-Myanmar political issue.
The NSCN (K) also clarified that they have not directed the Tangkhuls to abandon Ukhrul but to leave Nagaland and stated that it must not be misunderstood. They have further appealed to the Nagas to maintain calm and join what it termed as “the nationalistic march to freedom”. They also cautioned the Nagas in Dimapur and Kohima to be alert as they felt that the NSCN (IM) could be planning another “terrorist attacks like the pervious incidents that happened in Dimapur Train Station and Hongkong market”.
The NSCN (K) also informed that they have decided to join the United Nations in the fight on ‘War on terror’ and they are prepared to aid the UN forces in grilling all forms of terrorism in the region.
Meanwhile, the NSCN (K) condemned what it described as “the terrorist-sponsored NGO’s like the Angami Public Organization, the Tenemiya Central council, the NISC and NSG for posing the greatest threat to the Naga sovereignty”. “The NSCN (GPRN) has seriously weighed the inimical languages of these NGO’s and classified them as determined loudspeakers of terrorist hypocrites” and also felt that the terrorists and Nationalist (NSCN) cannot co-exist therefore they felt relevant to issue the ‘Quit notice’ to Isak-Khodao (IK).
