Corruption and Erosion of Trust in Nagaland Legislative Assembly

The word ‘Trust’ is missing completely in the 12th Nagaland Legislative Assembly. The words of an old say, I’ve been a long time leaving, I’ll be a long time gone remain us.

Citizen in all parts of Nagaland have suffered a huge loss of trust in Governance and corporate interest.

The Election manifesto magically vanished, the promised made by the politician decayed, wasted and all thrown away in the composed pit.

The 12th Nagaland Legislative Assembly will be remembered as the most corrupt, undeveloped in the history. In fact, there was no unity, no trust besides, every Legislator want to be on the top of power, craving for Buffalos portfolio, tussled of power, Tug of war, toppling one another thus, created political instability. And finally forget the very people who have elected them to serve have been neglected completely. Some enriched themselves and their cronies and in return the very people who have elected them to serve have been neglected and the general public has saddened with enormous debts which our children and grand children will have to repay.

The society has facing a very grave problem of corruption that has threatened basic foundation of society. Corruption in Nagaland is so much present in politics as well that sometimes it’s as if people really believed its natural or inborn feature of the state.

The major reason of fast creeping corruption are political instability, poverty, un equal structure of society, unemployment, lack of accountability, weak political institution and absence of rule and law.

We must stop Government officials in their destiny to becoming rich through Government. We need to carefully seek to place right individuals with right mindset and qualification to run the state in the direction that is beneficial to the greater population rather focusing on the personal gains.

Nagaland need a stable Government, it does not matter which group of Party lead it. Unless the new Government can bring in positive changes. The election will prove to be a wasted of public money. In general election you should vote for the political party you consider best capable of managing the state affairs in everyone’s best interest. It seems that the next general Election will present Nagaland voters with great dilemma.
