The United Naga Council (UNC), while sending out Christmas greetings, has appealed to all to shun violence.
“With Christmas round the corner, all believers around the world are praying for peace and prosperity. In our violence stricken state, prayers for restoration of peace and normalcy have been whispered from the lips of many for the past months. This Christmas, we continue to uphold our prayers with a strong faith that the birth of Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace will heal the wounds of the oppressed; young and old,” the UNC message said.
The Naga body then said the war is not yet over and the two warring communities have not budged an inch to put to an end the long drawn conflict that has taken many precious lives, destroyed properties and caused untold sufferings to victims of the conflict. “Without being biased to either community, the United Naga Council, as a neutral organization, has been actively advocating for the restoration for peace in the state ever since the conflict started on May 3, 2023,” it added.
The UNC appealed to all concerned to shun from violence so as to ensure that all is well during this festive season. “As families wait on the return of their near and dear ones studying and working outside the state, let us all work to uphold peace so that no harm come upon them in their journeys,” it added
