Concerned district GB leaders and GB delegation members\u2019 to the general meeting of Nagaland GB Federation (NGBF), which was held at Phek on April 20 & 21, have urged the state government to intervene into, what they described as \u201cunconstitutional selection\u201d of new NGBF office bearers and \u201cautocratic functioning system\u201d of NGBF office.
In a representation to the commissioner Nagaland, the \u2018concerned GBs\u2019 sessional chairman Thepfukedou Kuotsu and sessional secretary Luikang, on behalf of \u2018concerned GBs\u2019 meeting at Chakhro Public Organization (CPO), Ch\u00fcmoukedima on April 28, 2022, demanded that the government initiate necessary action as per the NGBF constitutional norms so as to safeguard the GB institution from \u201cautocratic working system.\u201d
They said the GBs were \u201cvery optimistic\u201d that NGBF officials would have ethical sense in running the office affairs as per the constitutional norms. However, the signatories expressed shock that \u201cthey had manipulated and workout everything in an unconstitutional way just to suit their sinister agenda.\u201d
The \u2018concerned GBs\u2019 pointed out that as per Article 10 (A), a candidate once held the post of president shall not be nominated for second time. However, they said the previous president was re-selected covertly for another five years term.
Further, they pointed out that as per Article 8 (C), the nomination committee will adhere to the norms strictly in selecting the office bearers as laid down, failing which the house has the right to turn down the selection of any candidate and will have to nominate other candidate if found violated the norms.
However, in violation, the signatories said new office bearers post have been created such as three vice presidents, two secretaries, one assistant finance secretary and one cultural secretary and picked candidates without the house approval.
The \u2018concerned GBs\u2019 also stated that some newly created district GBs association and newly selected GB office bearers were denied their rights to participate in NGBF executive meeting
representing their districts (Ch\u00fcmoukedima and Tseminyu\/Newly selected office bearers Kohima).
However, they said that some newly created districts and new office bearers were allowed to attend the executive meeting (Dimapur and Shamator). \u201cThis indicates biasness and coercion tactics to suppress and deny the rights of these GB representatives who are officially selected district GB leaders through democratic norms,\u201d the signatories said.
The \u2018concerned GBs\u2019 have, therefore urged the responsible authority to intervene and put the NGBF office in order as per the constitution norms in order to restore and keep the \u201cgood truth-ful legacy our past GB leaders\u201d and to safeguard the GB institution.
They expressed apprehension that if the affairs of NGBF office ran and functioned in the pre-sent style, the GB institution will lose its credibility as guardians of Naga customary laws and usages.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
