Mizoram co-operative society moving ahead

Aizawl, June 22 NNN : Mizoram Co-operative Society minister J.H.

Aizawl, June 22 NNN : Mizoram Co-operative Society minister J.H. Rothuama said co-operation, by its very name itself, indicates unity and working together. “When we work together, we can do such great things which are impossible for an individual and a single family themselves. Therefore, Co-operative Society has been an important agent which often betters the economic condition in developed countries. Besides, the monetary assistance that we get from the government, creating opportunity for others with self-dependency shall always be our main objective,” the minister said.
J.H Rothuama was saying this while gracing the 25th General Assembly of the Mizoram State Co-operative Union (MSCU) as chief guest of the occasion which was held at Archives Hall, Babu Tlang, Aizawl.
The minister released the special issue of Co-operative Magazine ‘Tlangau’ during the celebration.
The minister then said that that there is the need to provide more instructions to the societies under MSCU regarding financial management. “A large number of cultivators in Mizoram, despite of their perseverance and hard work, lack the knowledge of good strategy so as to yield good result. Therefore, to give them guidelines is the responsibility of the cooperative societies”, the minister said. The Mizoram government is also taking steps in the same line, and also, as promised before the assembly election, steps are being taken for setting up of Co-operative Development Council, he added.

BJP Jail bharo campaign begins

Imphal, June 22 NNN: Hundreds of Manipur Pradesh BJP leaders and workers Friday took out in the street in a “Jail Bharo Andolan” as part of the “Jan Sangrash Abhiyan” storming outside the Manipur Chief Minister’s bungalow in Imphal.
The BJP demonstrators holding party flags and some of them who were wearing it on the heads chanted slogans against the government outside the chief minister’s bungalow demanding complete rollback of the recent petrol price hike. They said in the last seven years of UPA rule, the national economy has gone havoc and the unabated price rise has impacted the common man.
The Jail Bharo Andolan was started from 11:30 am and continued till around 2:30 pm during which police picked up hundreds of state BJP leaders and workers including its president Sh Shantikumar.
However, the police later freed them on the outskirts of the city at Koirengei around 2 pm. Normal traffic in the city also disrupted by the demonstration.
The decision to launch the Jan Sangrash Abhiyan was taken during a meeting of the saffron party’s national leaders on May 31 last under the chairmanship of its national president Nitin Gadkari.
The major demand of the agitation is to complete rollback of the recent petrol price hike. The government of India has once again indulged in eye wash by reducing Rs 1.60 per litre, but the people of India take this partial rollback of petrol price as a political gimmick, the state BJP said.
The import of crude oil is now about 85 per cent, the party said, adding that during the NDA regime, it was 65 per cent to 70 per cent only because the NDA focused on alternate sources like piped gas, bio-diesel and ethanol.
It also blamed the UPA government at the Centre for continuously increasing price rise in the last seven years of its rule, saying the common man is suffering the burden of inflation. The Congress led UPA government should immediately take steps not only to check price hike but also bring down the price of essential commodities.

Demand for frontier Nagaland getting stronger

Dimapur, June 22: The demand for ‘Frontier Nagaland’ is here to stay even as the state government of Nagaland has been putting its maximum effort in persuading the leaders of the Eastern Naga Peoples Organisation (ENPO) to reconsider their pursuit.
In a meeting today between the state government representatives headed by chief minister Neiphiu Rio and the ENPO leaders in Kohima the ice could not be broken.
ENPO leaders informed that the meeting was cordial, peaceful and good. However, the ENPO leaders said their demand for a separate state by carving out four districts of Nagaland in the eastern part of the state will continue.
ENPO is demanding that the districts of Mon, Kiphire, Tuensang and Longleng be carved out from the state of Nagaland to form a separate state called Frontier Nagaland.
Meanwhile, sources said that the chief minister had assured the ENPO leaders of all round developments for the ENPO area. But the leaders of the ENPO had told the chief minister and his team that bringing all round developments is the bounden duty of the state government not only for the ENPO area but to all the corners of the state of Nagaland. The ENPO leaders were said to have told the state government representatives whatever that was offered will not serve the interest of the tribes of ENPO. “Only a separate statehood can safeguard the ENPO community,” said the leaders of the ENPO.
It is worth noting that early this year Nagas in four Nagaland districts had carried out massive public rallies demanding the creation of a new state christened as ‘Frontier Nagaland’ by bifurcating Nagaland. 
  The rallies were held simultaneously in the districts of Tuensang, Mon, Kiphire and Longleng on January 7. The rallies were organised by Eastern Nagaland People’s Organisation (ENPO).
 The ENPO, which is the apex organization of six Naga tribes including Konyak, Khiamniungan, Chang, Yimchunger, Sangtam and Phom inhabiting the four districts, had submitted a memorandum to the Prime Minister urging him to realize the demand. 
“Our demand for the creation of Frontier Nagaland is based on historical facts. This is something like going back to the earlier arrangement when the entire area was under the erstwhile Tuensang Frontier Division of NEFA,” ENPO leader Toshi Wungpung had said.  
Prior to Nagaland’s attainment of statehood in 1963, the entire area was under the Tuensang Frontier Division of NEFA. Mon, Kiphire and Longleng districts were carved out of Tuensang post-st
