What was conveyed to RN Ravi ? Classified FA, classified meeting

What were the suggestions and the measures put forward by the five intellectuals of the State when they met Centre’s Interlocutor to the Naga peace talk, RN Ravi during their meeting at New Delhi on December 13 ? Tough to say, for the suggestions, per se, have not been spelt out in details to the media and one understands why. Given the sensitivity of the issue here, it will be tough to disclose the finer details of what were discussed during the two hour meeting at New Delhi and again remember, save for one, who has stepped into politics, none of the others are involved in politics.

Hope the peace agreement brings peace not war

First, the Framework Agreement. Now a new term called Peace Agreement apart from Peace Accord/Final Accord. Beautifully crafted, of course. The details of the Framework Agreement are not disclosed to the public and when the public asked why, it has been cleverly blended as an agreement with NSCN(IM) and Centre as not a full-fledged palpable and conclusive agreement but a Framework for ‘Framework’ refers to an outline or structure. Nice word which is exactly suitable to culminate into an excuse for not making the contents of the agreement public.

When Ed Armstrong, the manager of the USA team sent out an invitation to interested polo players for the 11th Manipur Polo International, 2017, Kelly Wells insisted on her son, Brennan Wells, applying for it, as she was very keen on seeing the birthplace of polo. This is not surprising at all, as it is the wish of every polo enthusiast and player with any sense of history of the game to visit the place from where the game originated.
