Kohima, October 19: The BJP said the Congress-led UPA Government at the Center had not shown any sincere attempt in finding honorable and acceptable solution to the Naga political issue.

Talking to NEPS here at Hotel Japfu today, V Satish, Northeast BJP in-charge, said the progress of the peace process it had when the BJP-led NDA left the Government still remained without any sign of progress.

"No substantive progress in the peace process is there ever since the demotion of NDA from the Office," he stated, alleging the Congress-led UPA Government at the Center is not eager to find solution to the Naga political issue." The BJP leader, who is here to oversee the party activities, further expressed his apprehension that the Congress-led UPA Government might not follow the steps sincerely followed by the NDA towards finding the "honorable and acceptable to solution" to the Naga political issue.

Satish also denied rumors that the BJP activities were declining in Nagaland over the months.

He said he had come to Nagaland to oversee the party activities before the forthcoming party election that would be held throughout the country.

"We are working hard to restructure the party activities from the primary to national level," he pointed out.

At the same time, they would also see how they would fare well in the coming Assembly election due early 2008 in Nagaland, he explained.

The Northeast BJP leader also came down heavily on the O Ibobi Singh Congress Government in Manipur alleging that there were absolutely no law and order and total breakdown of Constitutional machinery.

"As such, we have demanded the Center to impose President's Rule in order to have free and fair election in the State," he added.
