Kohima:The Speaker of the Nagaland Legislative Assembly (NLA) Chotisuh Sazo has issued a notice to the ruling Naga Peoples Front (NPF) led by Dr Shurhozelie Liezietsu to file counter reply to the response submitted by the dissident Noke led NPF on March 30.
The statement issued by Mr Sazo said that he gave the NPF Central to submit the counter-response within 10 days.
This was a response from the letter he received to which the reply from Noke led NPF on March 30 came in response to the notice which he had issued on a petition seeking disqualification of legislators, which was filed by ruling Dr Liezietsu.
Mr Sazo said on receipt of the reply from the Noke-led NPF, he had accordingly issued another notice to the NPF chief for counter reply.
Dr Liezietsu had filed a petition to the Speaker seeking ‘disqualification’ of the 19 MLAs in the Noke-led NPF during early March last.
Accordingly, the speaker had issued a notice to be replied within 20 days to all the legislators seeking why they would not be disqualified, who are with Noke- led NPF.
The speaker had sought their replies to the petition for their disqualification from the Nagaland Legislative Assembly on various ground as submitted by the NPF chief. (UNI)
