Dimapur, Oct. 4 (EMN): The Myanmar-based Naga Public Organisation (NPO) has called for truce between the two rival groups within the NSCN (K) currently engaged in a war of words on the front pages of the local newspapers.
In a statement issued on Thursday, the NPO stated that the ongoing verbal bouts between the rival groups, and ‘the impending situation,’ have left the Eastern Naga people in ‘comma.’ According to the organisation, the Naga political groups must consider and understand “Eastern Nagaland” as the only region to have provided shelter to the latter through thick and thin for decades.
“…we want to make good use of it and not as factional birthplace,” it stated. The two groups, it suggested, should “immediately cease all forms of media war to save further deteriorating of the situation and solve any misunderstanding within.”
The organisation also wondered why the Naga civil organisations, intellectuals and citizens were silent about what was happening “in the most-suffered area.”
