Nagaland welcomes Jesus sans gunfire
Times of India | TNN | Dec 26, 2011, 04.22AM IST
As the guns stopped blazing on the eve of Christmas, with the armed cadres of rebel Naga groups maintaining restraint in view of the festival, it was time for the citizens of Nagaland to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ and to welcome the Prince of Peace.
Naga rebel groups also celebrated Christmas in their respective camps and pledged to bring peace in the state. Chairman of NSCN(IM), Isak Chishi Swu, in a message to the people of Nagaland said, "God's plan of salvation embraces the Naga people. We have emerged from darkness to light after we received the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
My dear Naga people, we fear not the adversaries but we realize that the seriousness of our own sins has been the greatest hurdle today in an honourable solution to our issue. To be for Christ is the only right direction for us today. To struggle against evil will lead the Naga people to strive for good."
