Dimapur, August 30 (EMN): Central Nagaland Tribes Council (CNTC) has raised serious concern over the unabated and the unchecked influx of illegal immigrants in the State and urged the government to initiate action before the ‘indigenous population is swallowed by the illegal immigrants.’
CNTC has issued this statement following the directives of the central government and the MHA to identify and deport all illegal immigrants in the State.
“Looking at the present rate of influx, the future existence of our younger generations seems greatly endangered by the threat posed by this continuous incursion. The lackadaisical attitude of the state agencies and its monitoring systems has miserably failed in protecting the vulnerable indigenous population of the state,” CNTC Media Cell alleged.
CNTC has decided to take up this issue very soon with all seriousness together with all other tribal hohos, NGOs, civil societies, student organisations and churches. In this regard, it has appealed to all concerned to join hands together to curb this menace which will be the true and real fight for the coming generations.
CNTC also raised concern on the random issuance of driving license, aadhar cards, PAN cards, etc. by respective authorities and on the issuance of the Permanent Residence Certificates (PRC) in many localities by the respective GBs/chairmen. It appealed to stop these activities immediately before the coming generations are wiped out by our greed and gullibility.
It has also expressed displeasure with many apex organisations in letting out their premises randomly to those immigrants instead of having any concern for the educated unemployed Naga youth.
CNTC affirmed that it cannot allow our land to become another Tripura where the indigenous inhabitants have been reduced to a minority. As directed by the centre, it urged the state government to set up a task force at State and district level and identify all illegal immigrants and deport them at the earliest.
