According to sources, the apex Tangkhul customary body, TNL held a coordination meeting with Tangkhul Longnao and Longphang on January 21 at TNL office chaired by president TNL, David Kashungnao.
The meeting unanimously resolved to support the call of United Naga Council (UNC) to not participate in Republic Day celebration in Naga inhabited areas of the state.
It also mentioned that despite the signing of Framework Agreement in 2015 to bring forth an amicable and honorable solution, there was no headway in the ongoing Indo-Naga peace talk due to the lack of sincerity by the Government of India.
Meanwhile, Tangkhul Katamnao Long (TKS) was reportedly entrusted to inform all the schools in Ukhrul district to refrain from participating in the Republic Day celebration.
