Mokokchung, July 16 (MTNews): On the report that Nagaland legislators would be voting 100% in favour of BJP led NDA government’s candidate in the ensuing Presidential election, Nagaland Pradesh Congress Committee President K Therie on Saturday said, “if this is true, Nagaland for Christ has transformed into Nagaland for Hindutva under the leadership of N Rio.”
Therie said that the ensuing Presidential election would reveal the ‘wisdom’ of the MLAs and MPs of Nagaland. “In Presidential elections, it is completely a vote of conscience. It is the individual’s independent decision. There is no Whip. We will see the wisdom of MLAs and MPs who represent a Christian State,” Therie said in a press release issued on Saturday.
Therie said that, in India, it is no longer political or economic issues under consideration. “Rather, votes are divided on religious lines. Money and Power have destroyed honesty and Christianity in Nagaland. People have changed from worshiping God to worshipping money and power,” he observed, adding that “we have elected money and power” which have been used to facilitate “transformation to Hindutva.”
