Dimapur, May 5 (EMN): A book titled “Naga nunger Nakachari nung talidak mesemteta aliba otsu, 1937-2017 (80 years history of Naga settlement at Nakachari 1937-2017),” authored and compiled by Imsu Jamir, was released in a simple function on May 5 at Nakachari.
The book was dedicated by Rev. Dr. Lima Jamir, dean of post graduate studies, Eastern Theological College, Jorhat.
Imsu Jamir (born in Lirmen village now 88), who had settled there during 1950s is a torch bearer for the Nagas living at Nakachari to date. He has played a proactive role for the welfare of the Naga people visiting Assam for different needs during the years of turbulent era.
From records, it was learned that many innocent Naga people used to get arrested by the Assam police under suspicion during 50s till 70s and put behind bar. Imsu was always there to secure bail for the release of those Nagas.
For the benefit of the Nagas living in that sector, the government of Assam has nominated him as a president through All Assam Tribal Sangha for issuance of ST Hills certificates and PRC for the genuine Naga people living in Assam since 1990s. Imsu is also the vice president of Border Peace Coordination Committee (Assam-Nagaland) since its inception. He has done exceedingly done well for peace building between the people of Nagaland and Assam living in the border areas.
