Dimapur, Jan. 13 (EMN): While joining the chorus to defer the ensuing general elections, Naga Hoho (NH) stated that Government of India (GoI) should understand that it was extending helping hands for solving the decades old Indo-Naga political problem and not asking for favour from them.
A joint press release from the Naga Hoho assembly speaker K Elu Ndang and the general secretary Mutsikhoyo Yhobu reiterated that it has been repeatedly seeking the attention of the Government of India to sincerely consider the general wishes of the Naga people with ardent request to initiate meaningful dialogue with all the stakeholders for lasting solution of Indo-Naga political problem at the earliest and defer the scheduled election in the state.
Naga Hoho had also requested the Prime Minister and President of India including the interlocutor and the Election Commission of India to bring early solution instead of holding election.
It stressed that the various statements from Naga civil societies, tribe hohos and the wishes of the Naga people for political solution and not election should not be ignored by the Government of India.
As the voice of the people is supreme in a democratic set up, the Naga Hoho has appeal to the Naga people from different walks of life to gear up and defend the inherent rights of the Naga people and not to allow holding of election in the land.
