Dimapur, March 22 (MExN): The 46th Naga Republic Day of NSCN/GPRN was celebrated at CFSB office premises with Viniho Kiho, Kilo Kilonser, NSCN/GPRN as the chief guest on March 21.
The MIP, NSCN/GPRN (Khango-Hokato Vusshe) stated that the Presidential Address was read out by the chief guest.
In his speech, Hokato Vusshe, Ato Kilonser, NSCN/GPRN stated that the present state with numerous Naga political groups is a grave concern for all the Nagas. He said that it is opportune moment for the Naga people to segregate the groups fighting for the cause of the Nagas. Vusshe also said that Nagas have always been a free people and “we are not besieging the Government of India (GOI) for a separate entity, but on the contrary we demand that they recognize our inherent rights and leave us as we were - a free sovereign nation.”
Stating the “stand of NSCN”, he said “no matter what, it will never compromise its ideology and Principle. Our political vision is based on the will of the people and our approach is pragmatic to the current political landscape of the state.”
He also announced that they will have a political dialogue with the Government of India with their “own set of competencies and charter of demands considering the realities of the present situation while avoiding unrealistic and idealistic approach.”
He also urged all the different Political groups, Civil Society Organizations and the entire Naga people to “keep our personal agendas aside and work cohesively for the broader benefits of the Nagas.”
