Naga People's Front (NPF) urges Centre, Naga Rebels to Arrive at ‘Logical’ Solution

Kohima: Nagaland’s Opposition Naga People's Front (NPF) on Friday appealed to both the Central government and Naga insurgents to arrive at a “logical, acceptable and honourable” solution to the decades-old Naga insurgency.

Governor RN Ravi, who is also the Centre’s interlocutor for the ongoing talks with various warring Naga rebel groups – the National Socialist Council of Nagalim-Isak Muivah (NSCN-IM) and seven Naga National Political Groups (various Naga insurgent factions) – had said discussions to finalize the Naga accord continue, and the NSCN-IM had come on board.

“The NPF has appealed both the Indian government and the Naga negotiators to give space to each other by understanding each other difficulties and arrive to a logical, acceptable and honourable conclusion keeping in mind of the complex situation of the region and the world at large,” the NPF statement said.

The NPF reiterated that the top most priority of the party’s is to work and assist in any possible manner on any approach for a peaceful solution of the “Indo-Naga” political issue.

Noting that Naga People's Front is tirelessly working as a facilitator role, the statement said, the NPF delegation comprising of legislators and party leaders had met the leaders of both the NSCN (IM) and the 7 NNPGs at New Delhi and impressed upon both the groups to come together by burying all their differences and work out for the sake of the better Naga future and to work collectively for an honourable solution with the Indian government.

On Thursday, Nagaland Governor RN Ravi had urged the ethnic Naga communities to come together in the spirit of forgive and forget and make new beginning towards unity, prosperity, development and brotherhood. (IANS)
