Mind your business: 'IM' to UNLF

Dimapur, Mar 10: Reacting to the statement of the Manipur based proscribed United National Liberation Front (UNLF), the NSCN-IM has asked the former not to poke its nose into the latter's business.The NSCN-IM also advised the UNLF to do "proper homework" to shake the consciousness of the Indian authorities over its movement.The NSCN-IM also advised the UNLF not to meddle into the Naga issue.

"When the government of India and NSCN entered into ceasefire agreement in August 1997 it signifies the recognition of the Naga political problem from the historical point of view as military solution was ruled out. It is better to be realistic than simply beating about the bush to mislead the people it claimed to represent. Truly speaking, the whole Nagas lauded the historic step taken by NSCN in signing the 2nd Indo-Naga ceasefire. The 1st Indo-Naga ceasefire was in 1964. The UNLF by questioning the wisdom of NSCN in signing such ceasefire is going against revolutionary spirit and defies the fundamental objective of launching liberation movement. No liberation or revolution movement came to fruition without negotiation. In any revolutionary movement lapses come in plenty, and unfortunately it started playing into people’s sentiment. NSCN never argues the perfection of its cadres," the NSCN-IM statement explained.

It also said that black sheep are many within the organization and they become the source of public nuisance on many occasions. "There is no running away from the people’s scrutiny and we cannot stay apart from people’s aspiration. Corrective steps are therefore part of the disciplinary reformation in NSCN. When UNLF started meddling into Naga issue and started getting censorious of NSCN activities it became a matter of fishing into troubled water. This is un-revolutionary and bereft of any validity worth considering," it added.

Further, the NSCN-IM statement then said that spitting venom by using divisive language is all the more harmful to the spirit of co-existence among the people-the hills and the valley.

"By questioning the long term political strategy of NSCN, the UNLF is simply going overboard, and should learn to mind its own business. Rather it should concentrate giving historical education to its own people and not over stretched its hand to neighbors’ socio-political issue. This impulsive reaction to the situation is impolitic and avoidable. UNLF is therefore advised not to poke its nose into NSCN's business. When UNLF is yet to do proper homework to shake the consciousness of the Indian authorities over its movement, there is no point taking the course that is politically incorrect," advised the NSCN-IM statement. - NNN
