‘Framework Agreement’ will disintegrate NE armed resistances: MNPF

IMPHAL | Aug 31

The outlawed Manipur Naga People’s Front (MNPF) strongly condemned the NSCN (IM) led by Thuingaleng Muivah for its alleged policies and dictatorship to the innocent people, particularly the Nagas.

A release signed by Thomas Numai, assistant publicity secretary said peaceful co-existence among the various tribes of the Nagas and the Northeast people, has now become a land of conflict and hatred.

The fertile land, where nature’s bounties nourish the Northeast Peoples, has become a fearful place for survival because of the threats, extortions and murder by the Somdal policies NSCN (IM) under the leadership of TH. Muivah, it alleged.  

Learning the motives of the NSCN (IM), the government of India took this opportunity to hamper the peaceful co-existence and integration among the Northeast, the release said, adding every intellectual person obviously knows that the ‘Frame work Agreement’ signed between the government of India and NSCN (IM) is nothing but poisonous policies of India to disintegrate by creating enmity and erase the Northeast revolutionary movement.

In the past the Naga have experience the worst situation when the NSCN (IM) under the leadership of Th. Muivah killed the Naga brothers by branding false allegation against them as anti Naga, and traitors, saying; they stand to accept Indian constitution, it said.

Further the release alleged that in a resolution adopted in a joint council meeting of steering committee and councils of kilonsers NSCN (IM) on July 12, 2017, under the leadership of Th. Muivah stated that individual or organisation that opposed the ‘Frame work Agreement’ which is under the constitution of India will be considered as anti Naga or anti peace process and will not be spared but killed.

Naga people have lost confidence to all the Naga social organisations, Church leaders, chieftains and Village elders, as they are unable to give advice, suggestions or bring amicable solutions whenever any unwanted problems developed, said the release.

The MNPF release continued Kuki Inpi Manipur (KIM) approached to UNC for reconciliation for Kuki-Naga ethnic clash which killed hundreds and several houses were burnt down.

The request of the KIM was turned down as UNC was threatened by Th. Muivah not to talk about peace or any amicable settlement of the massacre or else they would face dare consequences.

UNC which is the apex Naga tribe organisation is very much supposed to be functioning at the people interest. But the threats and endless warnings of the NSCN (IM) had compelled them to malpractices creating a sense of insecurity and disintegration among various communities, it added.
