Dimapur, July 13 (EMN): The All Sumi Students’ Union (SKK) has accepted in “good faith” the apology issued by the Naga Students’ Federation (NSF) following the latter’s decision to host a felicitation event on the day the Sumis celebrated their premier festival Tuluni.
A press release from the SKK on Thursday informed that the issue was discussed during its emergency union assembly held on Wednesday last. “While duly acknowledging the clarificatory (sic) apology communicated by the federation on 12/07/17 through local dailies and termed it as a prudent approach on the part of a highly regarded intellectual body, the SKK unequivocally re affirmed its earlier stand that the NSF uphold its constitution in letter and spirit by inculcating mutual respect for cultures and traditions of all the Naga tribes and facilitate a healthy living environment for already disarrayed Naga family.
“Conveying its mutual acceptance of apology in good faith, the SKK in its strongest term urged the federation to ensure that strong resolution be adopted to prevent similar social mishaps in future. Unless such exercise is undertaken by the NSF, the SKK or any other federating unit shall have the right to raise objection on the failure of the NSF”, the statement read.
