DIMAPUR, FEBRUARY 10 (MExN): The Naga Mothers Association (NMA) on Friday said it has come to the notice of some of the tribal hohos directing its units to withdraw from the NMA. In this connection, the NMA in a press statement appealed all its units to stand firm in their principle towards the cause of the Naga women and their rights and to withstand any pressure.
While making the appealing, the NMA however said, “Those units who are under threats and pressure may take its own decision.” The NMA also cautioned those organizations that are blaming the mothers association for the unfortunate incidents arising in the past week, which has also extended to threats and intimidation to the NMA leaders.
