[dropcap]T[/dropcap]he recent incident of Changlangshu came as a terrible shock to the Konyak Baptist Bumeinok Bangjüm (KBBB), Mon where Assam Rifles personnel were ambushed that led to the loss of precious lives on last Sunday (3rd May).
When Sunday is not just a mere holiday for the Christian states, but it is set apart for the peoples by solemn religious ceremony as Sacred day where the Christians activities like worship, prayer and fasting are being observed throughout Nagaland. But in an ironic manner the sacred day is used by some people with an evil designs to bring destruction on this day against Christ’s principles. The KBBB convey their condolences to the deceased families, and also to those who got injured in the incident. May almighty God comfort all.Today the situation of our state is getting complex; intertwined with so many issues, they seem sometimes overwhelming and hopeless. The killing of one another cannot solve any problems rather it creates hatred and alienation amongst brothers all the more, but the wisdom of God alone can bring peace and solve any conflict!
The KBBB had been working for peace in this region, and we shall continue to do so for peace and well being of the people. Therefore, the KBBB appeal to all concerned sections of the society to maintain peaceful coexistence in the state. The KBBB hope that such untoward and inhumane activities do not happen in near future.
