The Government of Nagaland has issued a statement in response to the proposed sit-in protest by the 5 Tribes Committee on Review of Reservation Policy (CoRRP), scheduled to take place at the Nagaland Civil Secretariat on July 9, 2025.
In an official release from the Office of the Chief Secretary, the Government highlighted that the issue had already been discussed during a meeting held on June 3, 2025. The meeting, chaired by the Deputy Chief Minister (Home), included representatives from the 5 Tribes CoRRP and the apex bodies of the five concerned tribes. During the meeting, it was conveyed that the matter would be referred to the State Cabinet for consideration.
Subsequently, on June 12, 2025, the State Cabinet decided in principle to constitute a Commission to examine all aspects of the Reservation Policy in government employment. The Personnel & Administrative Reforms (P&AR) Department has since been actively pursuing the necessary follow-up actions, as directed by the Cabinet.
In light of this ongoing process, the State Government has appealed to the 5 Tribes CoRRP to refrain from proceeding with the planned agitation. The Government has reiterated its commitment to addressing the issue through proper institutional mechanisms.
