Rest peacefully we have a Government

Not all people are born to be big. Some are born to be labours and some others as slaves. Those who are born to be big learn to think big. Even the Gods when they were young could not know they would be a God one day. So they claimed they were the way to Gods. Father of the nation Mahatma Gandhi would have been regarded as a god if he was not against eulogising Godly figures. To him Lord Ram was the supreme God. So when he died he murmured “hey Ram.” The true quality of Lord Ram was that he was a good husband, a good son, a good brother and a good administrator. Every one aspires to act like Lord Ram. Everyone wants to behave as a good father, as a good son and also as a good husband. Not all but very few men aspire to act as a good administrator. Can anybody claim with conviction that they will become Chief Minister of a state? But we have a Chief Minister now and if he tells he wants to do something for the betterment of the society who are we to challenge his words. And the little thing he does will be for the betterment of all. We want our Chief Minister to assert and we want our Government to tell our people that they should not waste time demanding something that is impracticable. These people wait for the advice. When advice is not available chattering class steps into the role of advisors. Minnows can act like the cats. But who is scared of cats? The good thing about Manipur Government is that it shows cool and calm nature. We all know where we stand and where live. Had the Government of Manipur decided to act in an irresponsible manner things would have gone awry? Everyone should appreciate the attitude and sense of love shown by the Government of Manipur. After all the Government formed by the majority community has a responsibility to serve all. They will continue to do so. Because they love Manipur. Manipur and its people will think for its people nothing else. Therefore it will not be wrong to say that one should not react without knowing what the other side is going to say. Reaction must come when the words uttered by other side are infectitious and not in conformity which does not fall on the line of expectation. Ibobi had successfully tackled several crises year after year in the past two terms. He is a capable man he can put things in order. A major crisis, which threatened to throw away the whole system of administration out of gear, was put in order. He could ban the entry of NSCN supreme Muivah’s into Manipur. Action had been shown. Manipuris can fight for the protection of its own territorial integrity. We have a committed Government, which stands for the welfare of the people, which will not do anything against the wishes of the people. It is time we all realise why we have a government. If not for protecting the interest of the people why should we have a Government?

KOHIMA, Dec 12 (NEPS): The Supremo of the ruling Naga People’s Front (NPF) Dr Shurhozelie has not agreed to the idea of dragging Church in the so-called “Consultative Meet” to be held at the official residence of the State Assembly Speaker on Thursday.

It may be mentioned that in the last JLF Meeting held on Monday at Chumumedima Police Complex, the Members had decided to consult all political parties, civil societies and Church organizations to resolve the Naga political issue. Dr Shurhozelie could not attend the Meet.

Dr Shurhozelie, President, Naga People’s front (NPF)

Talking to NEPS here on Wednesday, the NPF Supremo did not buy the idea of dragging Church organizations in such “Consultative Meet” of the Naga political issue. “The Church workers are supposed to work in spiritual lines, whereas we are dealing hard politics. In my opinion, the Church should never be involved in such Meet,” he explained. “If we don’t differentiate and observe this, we are going wrong.”
Dr Shurhozelie, who is also Senior Minister in the DAN Ministry headed by Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio, however said they needed the goodwill services of the Church organizations. “We fully recognized and appreciated the services rendered by those Church leaders in the past,” he said. “But we should never drag them into such a position where hard politics is to be deliberated.”

Asked about the services of FNR towards the Naga political issue, the NPF Chief said the FNR was doing well but their services were not under the banner of the Church. “They are using different nomenclature, though their members are Church members,” he narrated.

Asked his party’s prospect in case they face election as scheduled, Dr Shurhozelie said, “It is too early to talk for election. It is no time to talk for election.”

“We are expecting some solution even now,” he hinted. “For me, I still feel that it is not right time to talk for election.”
It was, however, learnt that many people were preparing themselves to face election. “We can’t stop them,” he added.

The NPF Supremo also praised the Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh for his sincerity towards finding solution to the Naga political issue. “I met him (Prime Minister) for two times with our JLF members and listened to him,” he revealed and further added that, “In my own judgement, he (Prime Minister) is sincere towards finding solution to the Naga political issue.”
