KOHIMA, Feb 13 (NEPS): President of the Naga People\u2019s Front (NPF) Dr Shurhozelie said AICC President Sonia Gandhi had underestimated the \u201cintelligence\u201d of the Naga people by claiming that \u201cthe Congress party gave the Article 371 (A) for the protection of the Naga culture.\u201d<\/p>\n

Talking to North East Press Service here Wednesday, the NPF president, who has not contested this time assembly elections in the State, expressed surprise as how AICC President with whose party heading UPA Government at the Center could utter such remarks. He, however, said the Congress people in Nagaland had fed AICC President with all the wrong points. And this could be seen when she came to Nagaland to address election rallies—one at Dimapur and the other at Mokokchung—on February 7.<\/p>\n

Sonia\u2019s remarks underestimated Naga intelligence: Dr Shurhozelie<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Gandhi, while addressing election rally at Dimapur District Council Stadium (DDSC) at Dimapur on February 7, said the Congress had always been committed to preserving the Naga identity. \u201cCongress party gave the Article 371 (A) for the protection of the Naga culture\u201d, she said while adding that it was the Congress party which had introduced \u201cArticle 371 (A) that protects the Naga identity, culture, tradition and practices.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was wrong on her part making such statement because she was here as a Congress President,\u201d Dr Shurhozelie explained. She failed to understand that all these Article 371 (A), she was claiming as Congress\u2019, was the outcome of the agreement between the then Naga People\u2019s Convention (NPC) and the Government of India (GOI) and not with the Congress Party, he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo it was wrong on her part,\u201d he said. \u201cShe underestimated the intelligence of the Naga people. She was only talking those points briefed by the Congress people in Nagaland. \u201cIt was not from her hearts and thoughts,\u201d the NPF chief claimed.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, it was the NPF that had been working for the preservation of the Naga traditions, identities, custom, language, village institutions, etc., Dr Shurhozelie said. \u201cWe always support the bodies and NGOs that worked for the protection of the Naga identity,\u201d he said and further added that they also always worked according to the interests and wishes of the Naga people. <\/p>\n
