NGBF issued this statement following a meeting with the Naga National Political Groups (NNPGs) on March 9. A joint statement to this effect was issued by NGBF president and general secretary I Shalem Konyak and Shikuto Zalipu, along with GPRN/NSCN Ato Kilonser N Kitovi Zhimomi, general secretary (NNC Parent body) V Nagi, president NSCN (R) Wangtin Naga, NNC/NPGN co-convenor Hozheto Chophy, and NNC/GDRN co-convenor Kiumukam Yimchunger.“The ultimate desire of the Naga people is to live and progress as free and independent people and until such time arrives, a solution for mainland Nagas will go a long way in strengthening the Naga identity, preserve and promote emotional integration among Nagas in India and Myanmar, the joint statement said.
