The 12-hour NH-2 bandh (Tseminyu and Wokha sector), jointly called by Rengma Hoho and Lotha Hoho, ended peacefully without any untoward incidents from both the community.
Lotha Hoho Wokha chairman Mhao Humtsoe and Rengma Hoho president Kenyuseng Tep stated that the NH-2 bandh was very successful. The cooperation and response transpired that the public were all in full support of the protest against the apathy of the National Highway authorities Nagaland, they said.
The hohos expressed gratitude to all the Rengma and Lotha general public and their frontal organisations for their unflinching support during the bandh.

Meanwhile, the two hohos, on behalf of all road users, appealed to the state government to expedite the NH-2 widening and maintenance works immediately. They said “if there is no positive response, the agitation would be intensified.”
