Hitting out at NPF president Dr. Sh\u00fcrhozelie\u2019s statement that \u201cThose against NPF are against Nagas\u201d, Nagaland Pradesh Congress Committee (NPCC) president K. Therie described it as a desperate last attempt, misleading and uncalled for.
Therie further reminded that \u201ceveryone is working for the welfare of the people.\u201d
The NPCC president said that NPF\u2019s politics was detrimental to the interests of Nagas in Manipur, as they were limiting the arena of Nagas in India and Manipur. Therie said \u201cNPF\u2019s politics ends at Kohima\u201d while \u201c NPP\u2019s politics also ends at Shillong\u201d.
He said both NPF and NPP cannot defend or protect the interests of Nagas in Parliament as they \u201care mere stooges of the BJP.\u201d
Therie said that voting for NPF or for BJP was the same, claiming that one of the NPF candidates even had publicly assured to support BJP.
He also alleged that NPF was contesting in few Naga inhabited areas with the support of UGs (undergrounds) and that Congress candidates were threatened and even asked to withdraw their nominations and voters were also threatened with dire consequences.
Therie maintained that \u201cNPF cannot win even one seat without the support of UGs\u201d. He said the NPF and UGs have exhibited evidence before government of India and the people of Manipur. Therie said this was against the democratic system and violation of election code of conduct, which is liable for disqualification.
Though people want free and fair election, Therie said the undercurrent was different. He predicted that people will defeat \u201cNPF for their nexus with UGs\u201d.
He said the crowd of over 50,000 at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi\u2019s rally and about 10,000 at Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s rally in Manipur, revealed the minds of the people as it has proved that there is groundswell in favour of secularism.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
