Rengma community throw weight behind FNR’s Naga Day

Dimapur, Jan. 6 (EMN): The Rengma Selo Zi (RSZ), on behalf of the Rengma community, congratulated the Forum for Naga Reconciliation (FNR) for organising “the much anticipated Naga Day” scheduled for Jan. 10 next at Kohima. A press release from the RSZ on Saturday stated “the RSZ, in spite of the ongoing bandh that has been temporarily suspended for time being, graciously accept the request of the FNR for relaxation of the bandh for delegates travelling through Tseminyu area for the said event for the greater interest of the Naga unity and solidarity taking into consideration the significance and magnitude of the event. The RSZ ensures safe passage for all delegates of the event.” However, the RSZ cautioned “that the relaxation to delegates for the event in good spirit and goodwill for the greater Naga cause be not misused by non-delegates or miscued (sic) as a softening of the Rengma community's legitimate demand for Tseminyu district”. It stated that the Rengma community will continue its ‘unflinching fight for its legitimate rights’ and keep strict vigilance till the Rengma community's demand for separate district is granted.
