He also reminded that many agencies were working against the interest of the Nagas but assured that Nagas would not fight against them, but only speak about their rights in a democratic manner.

Mr Rio said the Naga Peoples Front (NPF) will continue to speak in the Naga voice and stand for the rights of the Nagas legally within the Constitution of India.

The NPF has realised the suffering of the Nagas especially under Manipur state,” he said adding that the party was providing an opportunity for Nagas to come together under the NPF platform.

He reiterated that the NPF has respect for all other political parties however Nagas would never compromise its interest and future.

“We are fighting elections to run a new government and not to sit in opposition,” he said and added that Nagas have to come together and get our rightful place under the Indian union.(UNI)
