Mokokchung, March 12 (MTNews): The Rising People’s Party has successfully completed day 20 of its historic “Walk to Save Nagaland” on the 12th of March 2022. The RPP team has so far covered a distance of about 600kms on foot, out of the estimated 1200kms which will circle the whole State of Nagaland.
The RPP said in a press note that their walkers and support team left Tobu town in the morning of day 20 and that they will be camping at the banks of the Yongmon River at Yangching village under Longleng district, adding another 36kms to the mileage. “The walkers and support team plan to spend day 21(Sunday) in Devotional service and rest at the said location,” it said. The team has so far walked through the roads of Dimapur, Chumukedima, Peren, Kohima, Phek, Kiphire, Shamator and Tuensang districts, crossing many Towns and Villages.
“During the advancement of the walk, the team has been stacked with numerous approbation and also contributions of cash and kind from the villagers and passers-by,” RPP said.
The leaders of the RPP mentioned that they’ve held a lot of fruitful interactive discussions with the villagers and church leaders during the walk, where they got an opportunity to listen to the grievances and receive first-hand information about the living conditions of the people. The team also accentuated the lack of basic amenities such as good roads and bridges in many of the areas, which is a deprivation of the rights of the people.
“The team deeply appreciates the selfless hospitality received from the people so far, and makes an earnest request to the people to continue and hold steadfast in their hopes on the RPP,” the press release said.
The RPP also appealed to the people of Nagaland, to remember the team in their prayers for good health and God’s protection as they continue walking in their quest for a “Renewed Nagaland”.
