Dimapur, September 27: The Nagaland Contractors & Suppliers’ Union (NCSU) has expressed surprise over the alleged claims of Nagaland Police Supplier’s Union (NPSU) of having affiliation with it as published in the media on Tuesday.
The affiliation of NPSU with NCSU does not arise as the Article VII “Affiliation of units” of the Constitution of NCSU clearly states that “All the district Unit of NCSU within the jurisdiction of Nagaland State shall be the only affiliating units of NCSU Head Office, NCSU vice president KL Setuo Rutsa and secretary Imsünok Jamir stated in a rejoinder today.
Further, the NCSU said Article VIII “Membership”, Clause 7, says that “if any member is found having dual registration with other union parallel to NCSU body, his/her registration shall be treated as cancelled”.The union informed its all the bonafide members that it will always stick to Government Standing Order “That all Government Contract and Supply Works in the State of Nagaland should be awarded only to the registered card holder of Nagaland Contractors’ & Suppliers’ union”.
The NCSU, therefore, directed all its district unit offices to be aware and vigilant against any “self-styled contractors organisation” within their jurisdiction and inform the same to the head office for necessary action.
