Dimapur, July 26 (MExN): The NSCN-IM says that the NSCN-K is turning itself into a foe of Naga civil society and on this advised that the latter cease being arrogant and move along with the aspirations of the people.
“You have turned yourself as foe to all civil societies. Now you have turn against GBs and DBs Association by refusing to abide by the resolution you have accepted earlier” stated an MIP NSCN-IM issue. The organization queried the rival faction what direction “you (are) taking by going against all positive steps the Nagas initiated in the process of restoring peace in Nagalim.”
This is no time to be arrogant but to face the reality by going along with the Naga people’s aspiration, it advised.
The NSCN-IM stated that all these years the NNC members have been trying to distant themselves from the Shillong Accord, saying it was signed under unavoidable circumstances. “Now all these signatories are gone facing natural dead.Mr A.Z.Phizo who keeps mum on the accord. has also gone. But after having work together for good and for bad all these years why are the Non-accordists yet to rise up and shout to the world that they condemn the Shillong Accord and face the political reality without any inhibition” the NSCN-IM asserted.
It further stated that after fighting for years against the Indian and Burmese forces condemning the Shillong Accord “it is a pity to hear that in the recent period Khaplang’s Commander-in Chief Khole had given a statement saying that he did condemn the Shillong Accord but under duress.”
“What is he trying to convey? Is he for the accord or against the accord?” the NSCN-IM queried As for (NSCN-K chief) SS Khaplang’s diehard followers like Moulatanu Zhimomi, Kitovi and others, the NSCN-IM stated, if they are “concerned only for the state of Nagaland not Nagalim why not stay quietly after the granting of 1963 statehood to Nagaland, But why indulge in collecting illegal tax and fight against the Naga national forces?”
The truth has to be told and the wrong has to be exposed, pretension pointed out and falsehood has to be put to stop, the NSCN-IM stated adding that in the light of this undeniable state of affair among the Naga underground groups, “it has become pertinent to put before these two questions for public judgment.”
