Nagaland Chief Minister, Dr.Shurhozelie Liezietsu on Wednesday extended his appreciation to the Americans particularly the American Missionaries for bringing Christianity to the Naga people.
The Chief Minister said that had the American Missionaries not entered into our land and spread the gospel, the Naga people would not have been what we are now.
Dr.Shurhozelie was interacting with the eight member-delegations from Virginia Baptist Missions and Baptist Collegiate Ministry led by Rev Jeffrey S Buffkin who called on the Chief Minister in his office chamber at Nagaland Civil Secretariat.

The Chief Minister shared with the American delegates that Nagaland though landlocked and surrounded by the mighty countries with various different religions, yet none of the Naga people were converted to other religions.
Instead, Nagas preach and spread the gospel to other people, he added.
Dr.Sh�rhozelie also expressed his regrets that due to the Naga political problem, Nagaland could not be developed to the expectation.
However, he expressed confidence that once permanent settlement comes, it is expected that development will take place at a faster pace.

Rev.Buffkin extended his appreciation to the Naga people and stated that Nagas are second to none and that the state is developing well in many field.
He was also encouraged to see that the Naga people are fighting and doing well against human trafficking.
