Kohima: Nagaland Pradesh Congress Committee (NPCC) has decided to take on the ruling NPF-led DAN Government by releasing a booklet titled ’11 years of NPF misrule in Nagaland under chief minister Neiphiu Rio’ on the even of the Lok Sabha election scheduled on April 9.

The NPCC had released the booklet at a press conference held in the Congress Bhavan Kohima earlier this month contained allegations of mis-governance and corruption which had been highlighted on occasions.

The booklet also contained the charge against NPF of relegating the election promise made in 2003 that it would bring solution to the Naga political problem within three months if voted to power.

It also slammed the NPF’s ‘equi-closeness’ policy with underground groups saying it has only ‘yielded more negative returns’ and heightened public resentment against ‘high-handedness and ruthless’ taxations imposed by the underground (UG) groups.

The booklet accused the DAN Government of abdicating its mandated authority which has been hijacked by the mushrooming parallel governments across the state on the issue of Naga nationalism.

It also said relations with neighbouring states have also been damaged under NPF. Further, it also reiterated its charge against NPF for protecting a ‘criminally charge sheeted minister’ Imkong L. Imchen.

Other issues highlighted in the booklet included force retirement of around 7000 employees from 2009 onwards, misuse of fund of Rs. 18 crore for Police Modernization, abandonment of the NERDP project without a single kilometer being constructed, siphoning of Rs. 712 crore for implementing RoP.

Further, it also alleged random appointments of 10,781 employees within a year (2012-13) adding to the state’s financial problems. (UNI)
