Source: IT News

Imphal, August 20 2020: A statement by Nikato Pilot Sumi , in charge of MIP, NSCN/GPRN has stated that the term 'Naga Army' use to the armed wing of the Nagaland is incorrect as it should be the People's Army of Nagaland (Pan) .

The statement said that NSCN/GPRN was formed in 1980-81 , with Nagaland Defence Armed force officially called the People's Army of Nagaland (PAN) .

It added that the Article 1 of military R&R of NSCN/GPRN clearly states the military set up as people's army of Nagaland (PAN) .

From the inception , the Military cadres of NSCN/GPRN has been continually governed as per the rule and regulations of the People's Army of Nagaland (PAN) .

The statement further stated that the colloquial usage of 'Naga Army' has somehow erroneously slipped into formal and official usage.

The Non Chalant and Ubiquitous usage of the term 'Naga Army' in common parlance has somehow reared into the fore and distorted the original and official term of the People's Army of Nagaland (PAN) .
