Mokokchung, 17 September (MTNews): In response to recent media reports highlighting taxation issues, the NSCN-K (Niki) has stated that, to the best of its knowledge, no Naga political party as a collective entity is currently involved in any public business ventures for profit.
“The lull of silence in the media on this matter/issue by Naga political parties has authenticated and cleared the confusion and that no Naga political parties as an organization is engaged in ownership of businesses for profit but purely members in their individual capacity are involved in businesses,” the NSCN/GPRN said in a statement on Sunday.
The NSCN/GPRN emphasized its commitment to upholding its Yehzabo and said that, “any member of NSCN/GPRN found violating the Yehzabo will be punished as per the provisions laid down in the Yehzabo and accordingly, befitting action shall be initiated upon the guilty member.”
