Dimapur, November 17: Elaborating that Nagas can only move forward if we are united, State chief minister TR Zeliang said peace a pre-requisite for any development to take place.
Speaking at the Jalukie town golden jubilee celebration on November 17 on the theme ‘Towards greater heights’ at GHSS football ground, Zeliang said Nagas are second to none, adding we can march forward only if we are united.

He also mentioned about many good leaders, who have worked hard and carried out the mission to establish Jalukie town.
“We have completed 50 years and so with new thoughts and clean mind and good vision and plan, we will enter a new epoch making era,” he said.
Mentioning that Jalukie is the rice bowl of the State, he said with the available potentiality the economy of the people will be much better, ‘if we put little effort.’ He also said Jalukie has the only Mid-Night Bazaar in the State where we get organic vegetables, fruits, rice etc.
