Dimapur, November 10 (MExN): Cracks in the DAN coalition came to the fore today with the State BJP submitting a memorandum to the Governor of Nagaland, PB Acharya highlighting “injustice and mis-governance of the DAN Government.”
This is an issue confronting Naga people and the party cannot remain silent while the people in the State are facing utter misery, stated the BJP’s memo to Governor released to media here by its spokesman M Yanghose Sangtam.
The State unit of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) had earlier said that it will review its alliance with the Democratic Alliance of Nagaland (DAN) coalition led by Naga People’s Front (NPF) following the removal of MLA Mmhonlumo Kikon as Parliamentary Secretary.
Accusing the DAN Government of crossing “all limits of corruption,” the Party memo said, “Unless corrective measures are taken urgently, the society is being pushed down to abnormally low level, where there is no law, development, vision or direction.”
Citing “irregularities and rampant corruption” as detected by the Comptroller & Auditor General (A&AG) Reports, the State BJP accused the DAN of preventing “unbiased investigation” of corruption by State Vigilance Commission by rendering it “toothless.” It called for the Governor’s intervention with appropriate measures noting that people were suffering under the weight of mis-governance and injustice.
The party, it stated, is committed to stand and work for corruption free governance as asserted by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The BJP Team was led by its President Visasolie Longue; Finance and Development Convener HK Khulu IAS (Rtd); Advisor BJP IK Sema, former President Dr. M Chuba Ao and State Executive Member Dr. Temsuwati Ao.
