Along Walling I noticed a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it Naga mini-cameo in Kiran Desai’s ‘The Inheritance of Loss’, amidst the backdrop of Gorkhaland (supposedly), juxtaposed with a contrasting American setting. The phrase just alluded that Nagas consume dog-meat. Well, fair enough, it’s no big deal. But it was the context in which it was phrased that I found quite [...]

MIP/GPRN 22 days already since the illegal Vihokhu camp went up in smoke, but the Azheto-Mulatuno-Kitovi group is still licking their wound. The humiliation and defeat at the hands of the Naga Army is haunting them day and night. For the third time they face the misfortune and the casualty at the hands of the [...]

GPRN/NSCN Generation comes and generation goes and God in His merciful time will release the Nagas from the clutches of destructive elements holding the Naga generations at ransom. In our long march towards what is rightfully ours, Nagas are confronting a new wave of alien forces bent on forcing a physical and psychological destruction of [...]

The villagers are also cautioned not to allow the setting up of such camps in their areas. Any conflict or casualty that may arise in the cross firing, the villagers shall be held solely responsible. Not heeding the GPRN’s warning will be at villagers’ own risk. Read the rest of this entry »

This morning the Azheto boys attacked the residence of one NSCN Town Command Lt.Col. Yarteo near the Patkai Christain College (PCC) at 5.30 am. In the retaliatory process the Naga Army of NSCN waylaid the Azheto boys and shot dead 14 of them on the spot and recovered 11 arms. The tragic killing is not our liking but forced upon us when Azheto boys put us in a very provocative position. The lost of lives is regretted and the NSCN condole the death of such precious souls who met such death for no cause.The whole blame and responsibility should go to Azheto who deceived the Naga people in the name of unity, and went back to his old friends for the third time when his misadventure was driven to the wall. What follows after the death of 15 is very unbecoming of the mob when they rounded up the Ceasefire Monitoring Cell at Diphupar. Read the rest of this entry »

Kohima | May 16 : The Opposition Congress claimed that the people of the State have lost the confidence in the administration under Neiphiu Rio led DAN Government, and has sought the intervention of the Governor to ask the Central Government to step in and “save” the State and its people. “The total Constitutional breakdown must be controlled and saved at all cost”, Congress Legislature Party (CLP) stated in a representation to Governor K Sankaranarayanan signed by sixteen CLP members stated here today.
Drawing the attention of the Governor on the recent spate of killings in Dimapur and Wokha district and also the unprecedented rise in prices of essential commodities, the Opposition Congress expressed apprehension that the situation will deteriorate and turn the state into anarchy. “We have a strong conviction that if this government is allowed to continue further, there will be further deterioration of the entire situation which will turn into a state of anarchy.” Read the rest of this entry »
