Dimapur, Sep. 18 (EMN): The Central Nagaland Tribes Council has once again affirmed its decision to dissociate from the Naga Hoho ‘till a thorough restructuring with review of its constitution is accepted through a general consensus.’
The CNTC issued a statement informing this was affirmed during a meeting in Dimapur on September 15. “The CNTC also resolved to demand the state government to expedite the amendment of the Nagaland Municipal Act 2001 taking into account the views and suggestions of the tribe hohos and civil societies as invited by the state government.
“The CNTC still stands strong against any type of reservation policy in our local body’s elections but supports women nominees chosen from various backgrounds like state/national awardees, expertise and luminaries of different backgrounds through a committee. The CNTC firmly opposes any taxes on land and buildings also as it directly infringes the very integral provision given by Article 371A,” the statement read.
