President Nagaland Pradesh Congress Committee (NPCC) K. Therie has renewed the party’s demand on the government of India, for early Naga political solution within a reasonable time, failing which the party will protest in the form of a “civil disobedience.”<\/div>\n
Stating this at a press conference Sunday at Hotel Saramati here, Therie reminded that the party on January 17,2020 resolved to urge upon the government of India and Nagaland state “to implement political solution without any further delay”. He said the resolution also reiterated that both the government of India and the Centre’s Interlocutor, honour the aspirations of all stakeholders and honour and respect the aspirations of the people which was supreme in democracy. <\/div>\n
Therie also said the Congress demanded and expected justice and equality so that solution was implemented with NPGs under a non-political and non-partisan government.<\/div>\n
He said despite negotiations having concluded successfully on October 31,2019 after all Naga national workers expressed their views and as desired by the state government, yet solution has not arrived. Therie said Congress now expects all negotiating parties stand by their commitment.<\/div>\n
He said Congress also resolved to discuss and interact with the grass root across the state on the Citizenship Amendment Act(CAA). Therie said the party leaders had already toured Tizit, Mon and Longleng and found that people were already aware about the dangerous impact of CAA. <\/div>\n
Therie reminded that Congress opposed the imposition of the CAA(then CAB) since 2016 as it knew the implications against the spirit of India’s secular constitution. He said since CAA seeks to divide India along religious lines, the division will take place unless the Act is removed from the constitution.<\/div>\n
The minorities such as Nagas face threat from CAA as it would submerge them under the ocean of majority religious community, a factor which Nagas used to be apprehensive even in the past.Therie said while Nagas have been struggling to preserve and protect their identity, religion and culture over the past 90 years, if CAA was is implemented, Nagas would be overwhelmed within two decades like Tripura. Therefore, he said, Congress will never accept CAA in any form. <\/div>\n
Therie lamented that all the 60 legislators and two MPs were “toothless” and unable to protect the aspiration of people from the danger of a “reign of terror” to be unleashed under CAA from “the ocean of bigger communities”.<\/div>\n
On corruption, Therie said even some MLAs had openly said that even if they carried out development work in their areas, no one would vote for them in the next election, since corruption has become a way of life in Nagaland. He said even government servants worked only for the ruling party in power and thus nepotism and manipulation have become the norm.<\/div>\n
He also regretted that the people themselves accept rising corruption as means of electing those who will not build roads in their constituencies. He said there was no place in the state for God fearing people who want to serve the communities. Therie said the voice of people was no longer heard by those in government as everybody knew the reason why.<\/div>\n
