NSCN/GPRN (Khaplang) has refuted the claim of the GPRN/NSCN that three members who had signed for impeachment of S.S. Khaplang and now with the latter, had done so as per tradition of appending signatures at any meeting. Therefore, it said the claim that they had agreed to impeach Khaplang was “to befool Nagas with attendance registration”.
MIP said appending signatures while attending any meeting cannot mean as having voted, agreed or disagreed with the proceedings or outcome of the meeting.
Further, it said no discussion, deliberation or interaction took place at the meetings as it was confined only to Khehoi camp where a few regions (only Sumi region and Rengma region being represented by the region chairmen) were present. It said the meeting was mostly represented by ministries officials and 3rd brigade personnel, “who were handpicked only inside the meeting hall and were not even nominated.”
MIP restated that the emergency meeting held at Khehoi on June 6 and 7 by contained glaring facts that rendered the meeting “null and void, inconsequential and uneventful to the NSCN/GPRN”.
The outfit’s MIP said the meeting was “hastily convened” without the approval or presence of the president, vice president or even then service chief ‘Gen.’ Khole. The last named of who was elected “even without his consent or intimation” besides being absent from “the drama taking place at Khehoi.”
MIP said accused N. Kitovi Zhimomi, as then general secretary, of having pre-planned and summoned the emergency meeting by taking advantage of an “unprepared” and “threatened audience” who only had to say “yes and no” to the impeachment of the president. Further, a general secretary, had no constitutional authority to summon national assembly or national emergency under any circumstances except the president.
The statement of the MIP expressed concern whether the “Khehoi gang” at its infancy as a new association would be regarded as a group by the government of India to extend cease fire with. It claimed, that as per international law-where there is no conflict or war, there cannot be cease fire or negotiation with the Khehoi group which was “born on 13th June 2011” .
It alleged that the Khehoi group was bereft of “any history of conflicts or war with either the GoI forces or Myanmar juntas.” MIP said it was left to the Khehoi group as to what political or historical basis would they confront the government of India,except as to act as the latter’s “stooge”.
Further MIP queried what agenda, policies and programs would the Khehoi group try to lead Nagas to “and prolong its extortion drive”.
MIP said the NSCN/GPRN (K) as “an elderly and experienced political platform and people’s government” under Khaplang’s leadership wished the Khehoi group “early self realization and successful career as an NGO on retreat and fund raising campaign, based at Khehoi until they could successfully form some kind of government for themselves.”
