Nagaland Govt demands transparent negotiations for Eastern Naga Entity

MHA and the ENPO are at fault for sidelining and keeping the Nagaland Government and people of the state in the dark: K.G Kenye

The Government of Nagaland has asserted that negotiations between the Eastern Naga People’s Organization and the Government of India need to be transparent and no secret deals should be made behind its back, adding that the State Government has not stood in the way of the desires of the people in the East.

Minister for Power and Nagaland Government Spokesperson K.G Kenye said that while the rest of Nagaland extends its best wishes and fullest support for the creation of such a new entity, it cannot leave the rest of the state and its people to linger in uncertainties. He maintained that there will be consequences when a portion of Nagaland and its people are sliced out from the present-day state.

He added the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) and the Eastern Nagaland People’s Organisation (ENPO) both actually are at fault for sidelining and keeping the Nagaland Government and the rest of the people of the state in the dark. He added nobody is against it but everyone is just concerned about the type of arrangements, divisions of power, the structures, the status it will be given the nomenclature.
