The NSCN-IM has strongly rejected the continued use of the term “terrorist outfit” to describe their organization, calling it a “misnomer” and a violation of the spirit of the Indo-Naga peace talks. According to a statement released by the Ministry of Information and Publicity (MIP) of NSCN/GPRN, the term has been used “recklessly” by the Government of India and is “against the spirit of the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)” signed on November 18, 2002, in Milan, Italy. The MOU marked a conscious decision by the Government of India to discontinue the ban on the NSCN under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act.
“The term ‘terrorist outfit’ is henceforth a misnomer against NSCN,” the statement read, emphasizing that India’s continued use of the label runs counter to the agreed-upon ceasefire and the commitment to a peaceful political solution.
The NSCN further criticized the Government of India’s handling of the ongoing Naga political issue, describing the actions as “deceitful” and “misleading.” “Deceit has been the dealing of the government of India against the National Socialist Council of Nagalim from the day the Indo-Naga political dialogue started in 1997,” the statement declared. “Significantly, this has become the reason why the Naga political solution remains elusive.”
The NSCN pointed out that deceit, in this context, refers to a “purposeful falsehood” designed to mislead both the world and the Naga people about the Naga political issue and their identity. “When deceit is practiced consciously, false impression is created to mislead the world on Naga issue and thus get away with something bad against NSCN to keep NSCN on the wrong side of justice,” the statement asserted.
Despite entering into a ceasefire agreement with the Government of India in the hopes of achieving a peaceful solution, the NSCN alleged that the government has continued to target them unfairly, employing tactics aimed at discrediting the group.
“The irony is, India failed to realize that NSCN can never be browbeaten into submission,” the statement declared. “This has been the politics in the Naga revolutionary movement for the past 70 years that has confounded the worldly wise and the politically conscious people within India itself.”
Furthermore, the NSCN highlighted the case of Alemla Jamir, a “Prisoner of War” (POW) according to international law, who has been incarcerated for over four years. The NSCN claims that Jamir has been unfairly treated and unjustly labeled as a member of the “misplaced ‘terrorist outfit.’” This, they argue, is not only a violation of international law but also a blatant attempt to intimidate the Naga people into submission.
“This is a pure case bereft of sincerity and understanding from a human perspective,” the statement added.
