In the backdrop of the fast changing situation in the Dimapur District and adjoining areas, the Joint Council of the Government of the People’s Republic of Nagalim (GPRN) have taken the resolute stand to oppose opening of new ‘designated Camps’ in the name of K-group within the jurisdiction of Dimapur District. The villagers are also cautioned not to allow the setting up of such camps in their areas. Any conflict or casualty that may arise in the cross firing, the villagers shall be held solely responsible. Not heeding the GPRN’s warning will be at villagers’ own risk. Read the rest of this entry »

This morning the Azheto boys attacked the residence of one NSCN Town Command Lt.Col. Yarteo near the Patkai Christain College (PCC) at 5.30 am. In the retaliatory process the Naga Army of NSCN waylaid the Azheto boys and shot dead 14 of them on the spot and recovered 11 arms. The tragic killing is not our liking but forced upon us when Azheto boys put us in a very provocative position. The lost of lives is regretted and the NSCN condole the death of such precious souls who met such death for no cause.The whole blame and responsibility should go to Azheto who deceived the Naga people in the name of unity, and went back to his old friends for the third time when his misadventure was driven to the wall. What follows after the death of 15 is very unbecoming of the mob when they rounded up the Ceasefire Monitoring Cell at Diphupar. Read the rest of this entry »

Kohima | May 16 : The Opposition Congress claimed that the people of the State have lost the confidence in the administration under Neiphiu Rio led DAN Government, and has  sought the intervention of the Governor to ask the Central Government to step in and “save” the State and its people. “The total Constitutional breakdown must be controlled and saved at all cost”, Congress Legislature Party (CLP) stated in a representation to Governor K Sankaranarayanan signed by sixteen CLP members stated here today.

Drawing the attention of the Governor on the recent spate of killings in Dimapur and Wokha district and also the unprecedented rise in prices of essential commodities, the Opposition Congress expressed apprehension that the situation will deteriorate and turn the state into anarchy. “We have a strong conviction that if this government is allowed to continue further, there will be further deterioration of the entire situation which will turn into a state of anarchy.” Read the rest of this entry »

Thanks to our brave fathers, who for thousands of years defended our national right to decide our future by ourselves against all aggressors to stay alive on one hand, and leave the legacy of living politics to their posterity on the other.

The politics of Naga National resistance movement is based on the rock of that right. We value that right above everything else all because it is the foundation of both individual and community life. This is the bedrock of our national organization and the state whereupon the future of the present and the coming generations hangs. The national revolution like ours is the highest politics of millions of people to be spearheaded by mandated revolutionary elders. It calls for seasoned workers who have total commitment to the cause and loyalty to the nation and leadership so that the plane of the movement is piloted in the right route for the destination. Leading and conducting a revolution of a people is not the job of unprincipled people. It demands of us many qualities.The mushroom growth of illegitimate and un-mandated organizations in the stolen name of the people is the sign of lawlessness in the land, and commercialization of revolution. We know there are some people among us who deliberately nurture the illegal and un-mandated organizations with an eye to make money out of it. Mind that it is the worst kind of investment. Does an illegitimate organization represent the people? In Naga Society illegitimate child does not represent the family. It is ridiculous to expect national independence from traitors and illegitimate organizations No history ever makes mention of traitors liberating a people. Read the rest of this entry »

Dimapur, May 12: The Sumi Hoho and the Tangkhul Hoho today came out in one voice demanding that the warring underground factions put stop to the ongoing bloodbath. The two organizations also took strong note that civilians were being victimized by the factional clashes and called for an end to the “harassment” or killing of innocent public. The Sumi Hoho and the Tangkhul Hoho Nagaland reminded strongly that it is about time the need for reconciliation and unity is realized, to confront common enemies. This is for the reason that the Nagas’ adversaries are taking advantage of the absence of the spirit of accommodation, it stated.A joint press statement from the two frontals appended by Sumi Hoho president Hokishe Yepthomi and Tangkhul Hoho Nagaland Advisor Joseph Singnaisui was received here today. “The gravity of the present prevailing situation demanded the Sumi Hoho and Nagaland Tangkhul Hoho to appeal to the warring factions of the undergrounds to stop fighting forthwith in and around Dimapur for the peace and tranquility of the public” the press statement said.
