DIMAPUR, JULY 22 (MExN): The Zeliangrong Baudi (Nagaland) today issued a statement to clarify its stand on a press release issued by the Zeliangrong Baudi (AMN) on withdrawal of mandate given to NSCN (IM) and resolutions adopted during the Dimki Session of the ZB (AMN) on July 15.
A press release from the Zeliangrong Baudi (N) media cell informed that it could not participate in the Dimki Session of ZB (AMN) through video conference held on July 15 due to network problem on that day.
“However ZB (N) decision in matter of delimitation in the context of Peren District in Nagaland was conveyed to the Dimki Session through phone call to the leaders. To the effect of which, the ZB (AMN) has motioned and resolved for opting to allow the exercise of implementing the delimitation process in Peren District, Nagaland,” it informed.
“No other issues pertaining to ZB (AMN) on the aspect of Zeliangrong was neither conveyed nor proposed or discussed through video or audio conference by ZB (N). Therefore, withdrawing the mandated support of Zeliangrong threes states from NSCN (IM) is not the consensus decision of all the state units,” the ZB (N) said. It informed that the ZB (N) did not participate or convey any views or opinions on the matter to ZB (AMN)’s Dimki Session in any manner or form.
The matter of de-recognition of Zeliangrong by NSCN (IM) and question of withdrawal of support mandate to NSCN (IM) must be kept in abeyance for further deliberations by all concerned as the matter is unrelated and not contextual at this present juncture, it further stated.
The ZB (N) called for withdrawal of the published statement “at this crucial juncture so as to avoid further complicacy and discord among the Naga family.” It meanwhile appealed to the ZB (AMN) and all concerned to “focus on finding common and acceptable Naga Political issues by avoiding a flip-flop manner of doing things that may distort or delay the issue in hand to our disadvantage.”
