Guwahati: The Centre’s decision to impose ban on NSCN(K) has created an air of apprehension in the trouble-torn society there which was hoping for an early all acceptable solution to the Naga political problem in the wake of signing of the recent Naga peace accord between the NSCN(IM) and Government of India.
Naga Hoho, the apex civil society organization too has expressed shock at the decision of the Centre to ban NSCN-K. “This is a shock to us, can’t say why the government has done this specially after giving the clearance to us to hold talks with NSCN (K) leaders in Myanmar. We are not happy with the government’s decision,” Naga Hoho president P Chuba Ozukum said.
He said Naga civil society groups engaged in persuading all Naga rebel groups to become the part of the on-going Naga peace process, had failed to understand the way Central government dealt with the Naga political problem.
The Nagaland Legislators’ Forum (NLF) and Nagaland Pradesh Congress Committee (NPCC) have expressed disappointment at the Government of India’s decision to ban the NSCN (K) for a period of five years.
The Convener of the NLF and the Speaker of the Nagaland Legislative Assembly, Chotisuh Sazo, stated “The action by the Central Government is against the wishes and desire of the people as we have all been requesting Government of India and NSCN (K) to resume their ceasefire so as to let peace reign in our land.”
A resolution passed in the recent session of Nagaland Assembly held during July 21 to 27 this year urged the Central government and the NSCN (K) to resume the ceasefire agreement to create a congenial atmosphere for the smooth progress of the Naga political dialogue.
Nagaland Pradesh Congress Committee (NPCC) stated that when Nagas were yearning for a peaceful settlement to the decades-long political turmoil and the recent signing of peace accord with the NSCN (IM) group provided some glimmer of hope, the decision by the Central government to ban NSCN (K) for five years was an unfortunate.
It said the five years ban on NSCN (K) meant no solution could be expected for the next five years because the central government should not expect peaceful settlement to the vexed Naga political problem without inclusiveness.
