Tangkhul Naga Long (TNL) , the apex body of the Tangkhul Naga Tribe, has reacted strongly against Prime Minister Narendra Modi's call for a Nationwide cleanliness drive on October 1, which falls on a Sunday which is a holy worship day for the Christians.
TNL President, David K Shimray in a press release termed the Prime Minister's call as an 'insult on the sentiments of the minority Christian community of the country' .
The Prime Minister defied logic and reason by making such an announcement on a Sunday as the day is meant for worship for Christians and not for work, it added The TNL expressed dismay at such blatant display of disrespect and intolerance of the socio-religious diversity which has been a distinct hallmark of the Nation.
