Nagaland Post reports
that Naga National Council
(NNC) on March 12 said
that after thorough deliberation
it welcomed the resolutions
adopted on February 29
(in Dimapur) at the Naga
Reconciliation Meeting
(NRM) under the banner
of Forum for Naga Reconciliation
(FNR), especially the
3rd resolution
that “made about the NNC
this time as rightly stated.”
The third resolution,
besides others, acknowledged
the “monumental role”
of the NNC and its contribution
under the presidencies
of T Aliba Imti, Mhondamo
Kithan, Visar Angami and
AZ Phizo, for upholding
the “historical and political
rights” of the Nagas and
their lands. The NNC also
said the “very stand taken
by the FNR this time is
appreciated and supported
by the Parent Body of
the Nagas (NNC).” Meanwhile,
State Governor Nikhil
Kumar appreciated the
overwhelming response
to the NRM organized by
FNR and said that it was
strong indication of the
people’s desire for peace
and reconciliation.
However, the National
Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak-Muivah
(NSCN-IM),
while appreciating the
tireless efforts of the
FNR towards bringing all
the Naga outfits into
one fold, said on March
12 that it cannot accept
in toto the resolutions
adopted by the FNR during
the NRM, reports
The Times of India.
The joint council of the
NSCN-IM held a meeting
on March 3 to discuss
the resolutions adopted
in the reconciliation
meeting and unanimously
agreed that the resolutions
contained certain flaws
and politically untenable
points. |
