Dimapur, May 25 (MExN): The District Congress Committee Dimapur today said that the statement of Dimapur NPF president congratulating chief minister Neiphiu Rio for offering “unconditional support” to Congress led UPA is an “immature and shameless statement”.
The Dimapur NPF president had also applauded the decision of the state BJP for dissolving the party and merging with the NPF.
H Kisheto Chishi general secretary (media) DCC stated, “It is (an) immature and shameless statement on the part of NPF Dimapur Division Unit congratulating the state chief minister just for offering unconditional support to UPA without knowing the actual position of the matter.”
DCC Dimapur held that in meeting the prime minister and the chairperson of Congress party, chief minister Rio was making a “desperate attempt to convince and seek blessing from the congress led UPA govt. at the centre”. DCC Dimapur wondered: “So, is it a congratulation for seeking blessing from the Congress led UPA? Or for NPF led DAN’s achievement in bringing down the state into bankrupt (cy)?”
Quoting the Dimapur NPF president applauding the dissolving of the state BJP who had mentioned that “communal forces has no place in a civilized society like Nagaland” the Dimapur Congress questioned if NPF Dimapur Division came to this realization “only after the defeat” of BJP led NDA in the recent elections.
The Dimapur Congress calling the statement of the Dimapur NPF president “a shameless statement of appreciation” stated further : “After reaping and (having) enjoyed the harvest at the fullest for six and half years, they are now trying to cover up the whole episode with just by one sentence.”
