It is very unfortunate on the part of the Dimapurians especially the so-called ten tribes forming a committee NFHRCC to pressurize the state government especially for a particular project. In fact, they, so-called committee, should be grateful to the DAN III ministry whoever is in power for they are the one who approved the so-called NFHRCC proposed project for the benefit of the inhabitants of the particular region/area instead of all hurdles including budgetary. However, after the commencement of the project, I would like to place in record that even the Minister in charge is being closely monitoring the project and took stock of the work progress at the site for several occasions for quality workmanship.
Further, I would also like to state that the pathetic and deplorable road conditions in Dimapur town in particular have been revamped by the Minister in charge who personally took interest in developing the city which was long neglected. It is notable that various road constructions and repairing have been initiated across the state under the leadership of the present minister. However, I would like to question the so-called Committee, who initiated a bandh yesterday, is this the reward and appreciation presented to the Hon’ble Minister for Road & Bridges Shri. Azo Nienu for his sincere and active participation towards development of the state?
Hence, calling a bandh in Dimapur to address their problem by NGOs such as NFHRCC committee is a direct insult and challenge to district administration as well as the state government as the said project has nothing to do with the genuine and common citizens of Dimapur district. Therefore, it is advised that in future course of action such as to organize bandh or any form of agitation for a particular purpose be held in the particular effected area/region and not elsewhere as because, this will jeopardize the unity of Nagas in particular.
Lastly, I would like to call upon the Hon’ble Minister for Road and Bridges not to shy on his part and stand firm towards his commitment for bringing more development in the state. I wish and prayed that our heavenly God shall ponder more wisdom to our Minister Azo Nienu to lead the Nagas further.
