Dimapur, January 07 2023:
Naga Hoho has questioned the sincerity and 'habitual rhetoric' of the Government of India with regard to Indo-Naga political settlement.
In a statement issued to Newmai News Network, Naga Hoho said that it was constrained to issue public statement against the backdrop of the Government of India under the BJP led government failing to address the wishes of Naga people for a lasting solution to the Indo-Naga political problem with the slogan 'Election for solution' during the run-up of 2018 state assembly election in Nagaland.
Naga Hoho recalled that the Prime Minister had given 18 months to bring Indo-Naga political solution after assuming the Prime Minister's office in 2014 .
"And whereas, even after more than eight years of BJP Government, solution seems to elude the Naga people without finding any tangible settlement," the Naga Hoho statement said.
It further said that the Government of India is well aware that more than 25 years have gone ever since the signing of Indo-Naga cease-fire with the objective of finding a Indo-Naga political settlement.
The statement of Naga Hoho then said, "Apparently, the Naga peace accord which is believed to be at its final stage and likely to culminate anytime, seems to be never ending political negotiations.
Very disgustingly, India has employed the colonial policy of further divides and fragmentation of the Naga people despite recognition of Naga political problem as unique situation and history" .
Naga Hoho then said that the grand signing of 'Framework Agreement' on August 3, 2015 and the acknowledgement by the Prime Minister has turned into a dark history.
It also said that the act of Government of India is disgraceful to the peace loving people in different parts of the world "as it continues to wield the draconian laws and easing the Naga people with false promises".
Nagas are yet to see the light of the day despite more than eight years of BJP rule, it added.
