However, acknowledging the need of the hour to unite all Naga Political Groups irrespective of any party or affiliations, the WC said “they were even ready to go up to the extent of changing its nomenclature from WC/NNPGs to any suitable names, as the duties of the WC had completed when the Agreed Position was signed with the GOI on November 17, 2017 and subsequently, completed the negotiations on October 31, 2019, with a clear intention to accommodate all Naga Political Groups on board, who may not be a part of any agreement or non-agreement.”
Following a comprehensive discussions, the WC formally requested the Centre to bring out a common draft by compiling both the Agreements which have been established and reached between the Government of India and Naga Political Groups.
