Dimapur, February 12 (MExN): The NSCN/GPRN Khaplang group, today declared that ‘unification’ is more precious and valuable than ‘mere peace talk’ with the Indian government. “Criticizing one another among the Nagas is nothing to us. Bringing unification by sacrificing one’s own individual blood is same as joining the national worker by one’s own individual volition,” said K Zhimomi (Kughavi), “secretary of Public Relations & NGOs” in a press statement received here.
In this light, Kughavi said that for the betterment of the Nagas, the NSCN-K supported the unification movement and since then there was no killing or kidnapping from the NSCN-K side. However, he alleged that there is still destructive policy from the NSCN (IM) headed by Muivah, he said. Kughavi maintained that the underground organizations like NSCN-K, NNC, and FGN have become closer for unification, which he termed as a ‘rightful unification’ with the objective of ‘not to kill and no more bloodshed amongst the Naga family.’ Also saying that no Naga has a license to give allegation against individual, Kughavi asked whether Muivah has a license to throw allegations against Azheto Chophy ‘who is trying for unification’.
“Since 1997 till date, we’ve never come across Muivah statement against the Indian Government,” said Kughavi. Kughavi also asked that different NGOs to keep their words and differentiate “between killings and non killing by taking the example of the last more than two months of the start of the unification”. He said that ever since the unification process started, six of their cadres have been killed by the NSCN (IM), while the NSCN (K), it claimed, has not resorted to any killing “as we profess and believe in peace and unity”. In this regard, Kughavi directly asked the NGOs and public why they are so silent on “this killing”. “Even wars are fought to bring peace and solution so Nagas should not wait and watch but act else it’ll be only a negative attitude and action among the Nagas. So don’t let the bad time come but let the bad time go away,” he said.
Saying that the NSCN (IM) is opposing the unification move, while “a unification calendar for the year 2008 has been flooded in market and is been forced upon the Naga household to buy” by the NSCN (IM), Kughavi said that selling or advertising such calendars, is only to divert the minds of the people.
Further, Kughavi said that until and unless Nagas could able become one it would be a shameful thing to talk about peace process without unification of the Nagas with the Nagas. “Muivah talk about the peace process but how could he be able to cross Naga border without peace and unification,” said Kughavi.
