Mokokchung, June 29 (MTNews): The Tenyimi Union Dimapur (TUD) has resolved not to participate in any program organized by the Nagaland People’s Action Committee (NPAC) and appealed to all right-thinking citizens to refrain from participating in any events that may be detrimental to peace and tranquility.
The resolution was unanimously passed during a consultative meeting held on June 28 against the backdrop of developing situation arising out of the ongoing political talks between the GoI and various Naga national groups, said a press communiqué signed by TUD president Vekhosayi Nyekha and vice president Luangbe Zeliang.
The union also resolved to “stand on the political principle of ‘One people, one Nation’ (without border) taken by AZ Phizo based on the ideals of the 1951 Plebiscite”, and therefore any settlement on the Naga political issue should be acceptable, honorable and inclusive of all Nagas and groups.
Maintaining that it views the formation of NPAC under the aegis of the Nagaland GBs’ Federation (NGBF) with all seriousness, the TUD said “GBs, being agents/ appointees of the government, have no authority to initiate such programs which may further divide the Nagas when every section of the society longs for permanent peace”.
The meeting was attended by TUD officials, representatives of the affiliated tribal units and frontal organizations namely Tenyimi Students’ Union Dimapur, Tenyimi Women Union Dimapur and Tenyimi Youth Organisation Dimapur.
