Tamenglong, April 24 2011:
The National Socialist Council of Nagalim (NSCN) took a strong exception to the 'false' allegation levelled against the NSCN by the Union Ministry of Home Affairs of purportedly planning to assassinate SC Jamir and alleged that the resultant directive issued to the Nagaland Government by New Delhi to provide sufficient security to the former Chief Minister of Nagaland was on account of a self-created manoeuvre to draw petty sympathy vote.
A joint council meeting of the steering committee members and the council of kilonsers (ministers) held on April 21 at its council headquarters while taking strong exception to the allegation of New Delhi alleged that the directive of Delhi exposes total failure of its intelligence agencies who file reports to the home ministry at the whims of some crooked and wicked persons having no conscience and welfare for the people.
The NSCN has no such intention to harm SC Jamir.
However inputs received from so-called "reliable sources" reported otherwise.
These reports are derived from Jamir himself and his brother Sungit Jamir who is the president of Nagaland Pradesh Congress Committee.
The objective is clearly to initiate pre-emptive steps for another upcoming stage-managed-self-ambush judging by his past track record, the ministry of Kilo Affairs of the outfit said in a statement dispatched today.
The statement recalled that to start the 2008 election campaign he had stage managed an 'ambush' on November 24, 2007 at Changki area so as to draw the sympathy of the people as his popularity had touched the ground.
Again in 1999 when Jamir was caught in the middle of a ' 30,000 crore lottery scam, he had diverted the attention of the people by staging a similar 'ambush' on his own convoy between Dimapur and Kohima on November 29, 1999 .
Significantly, at both the incidents, no one even suffered a scratch, leave alone casualties.
He had also blamed the NSCN for both the incidents, the statement said.
"NSCN will no longer tolerate its name to be tarnished for self motivated interests.
And therefore, SC Jamir and Sungit Jamir must come out with a confessional statement and make their position clear to the NSCN and the Naga people at the earliest for their latest gimmick," it said.
Further, the statement questions the intentions of the GoI on the one hand for engaging them to finalize the Indo-Naga political issue while conniving with the likes of Jamir who have spent his entire life bargaining the rights of the Naga people and its nation for his position and demanded a clarification from MHA.
