DIMAPUR, JANUARY 23 (MExN): In the backdrop of the chaotic situation emerging out of the 33% reservation for women, the Rengma Hoho held a consultative meeting with different political parties and intending candidates on Monday.
Stating that this decision of the Nagaland State Government has created division amongst the Naga society and distorted the social relationship amongst the brethren, Rengma Hoho president Kenyuseng Tep in a press note said the Hoho has resolved to boycott the forthcoming ULB election 2017.
The Hoho has also directed all the intending candidates within its jurisdiction to refrain from contesting in the election. It also appealed the State Government to reconsider its decision to save from the embarrassing situation, which it feared may damage the image of the Naga society at large.
The Rengma Hoho has therefore appealed that the State Government should invite all stakeholders, intellectuals and scholars for wider consultations.
