Rengma Hoho during its meeting held on February 9 reiterated its resolution to continue to oppose ULB elections under Nagaland Municipal Act 2006- incorporated with 33% reservation for women – which is violation of Article 371A.
In a press note, president Kenyuseng Tep maintained that the State is fully responsible for the present chaos and crisis because of its indecisiveness and wrong policies though the belated declaration of the ULB election as ‘null and void’ by the government is welcome.
RH also condemned the action of the state police force in taking the precious lives of the three youths. RH also expressed its deepest condolences to the family of the 3 martyrs who laid down their lives safeguarding the future of Nagas.
RH also appreciate and support NTAC and JCC in their continued endeavour to carry forward the aspirations of the people. Further RH also appeal to all sections of Naga people to exercise wisdom and understanding and help resolve the present issue democratically while avoiding confrontation and violence.
Humane approach should be the basis to resolve all issues with emphasis on trust and confidence-building measures, RH added.
