The \u2018watershed meeting\u2019 of the first Naga People\u2019s Front (NPF) central executive council (CEC) headed by Neiphiu Rio which was held today in Kohima adopted six resolutions.<\/p>\n

\u00a0The first resolution said that, the \u201cNPF welcomes the good progress and achievements made thus far\u201d in the government of India and NSCN (IM) peace process and the NPF is content that the political dialogue has reached the final stage.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile appreciating the fact that the negotiating\u00a0 parties understands the difficulties and limitations of both the entities, the NPF urge upon the negotiating parties to expedite the peace process with more zeal in order to bring\u00a0 about an amicable and honourable solution respecting the unique Naga history at the earliest,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n

\u00a0The second resolution stated that, \u201cfor too long, the presidential decisions and actions of Dr. Sh\u00fcrhozelie\u00a0 Liezietsu was engulfed\u00a0 within the perimeter of four deleterious\u00a0 tenets .i.e autocratic, dictatorial, undemocratic and unconstitutional\u201d. While suspensions and expulsions of the party legislators became the order of the day, Dr. Sh\u00fcrho abusively converted the NPF party into a family fiefdom, it alleged.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cTherefore, in order to save the party from further destructions and mutilations, the more then 2\/3rd absolute majority of NPF Legislature Party selected Neiphiu Rio three times chief minister and MP (Lok Sabha) and the tallest Naga Leader as the interim president, consequently a grace period of 15 days was served to Dr. Sh\u00fcrho to repent and resign from the president,\u201d it added. The NPF CEC then supported and endorsed the decision of NPF Legislature Party taken on July 31, 2017.<\/p>\n

\u00a0It also adopted another resolution that, with the expiry of the 15 days deadline on August 13,\u00a0 for Dr. Sh\u00fcrhozelie to step down as the president, the NPF CEC unanimously agreed that Neiphiu Rio shall no longer be the \u201cinterim president\u201d but will become the full-fledged president of NPF.<\/p>\n

\u00a0The NPF CEC then fully endorsed the decision of the president to convene the NPF General Convention on September 20, 2017 at Dimapur and extended its supports and endorsed the constitution of Search Committee for the selection of President and Central Office Bearers (COB).<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cWhile the ongoing leadership dispute and the crisis in the party is unfortunate, the NPF CEC sincerely appeals the general public not to Panic but to remain steadfast with the leadership of Neiphiu Rio, president NPF and TR Zeliang chief minister as to ensure peace and tranquillity. Meanwhile, the NPF CEC is confident that the leadership dispute shall be settled soon by the ECI\u201d, another resolution added.<\/p>\n

The ‘watershed meeting’ of the first Naga People’s Front (NPF) central executive council (CEC) headed by Neiphiu Rio which was held today in Kohima adopted six resolutions.<\/p>\n

 The first resolution said that, the “NPF welcomes the good progress and achievements made thus far” in the government of India and NSCN (IM) peace process and the NPF is content that the political dialogue has reached the final stage.<\/p>\n

“While appreciating the fact that the negotiating  parties understands the difficulties and limitations of both the entities, the NPF urge upon the negotiating parties to expedite the peace process with more zeal in order to bring  about an amicable and honourable solution respecting the unique Naga history at the earliest,” it added.<\/p>\n

 The second resolution stated that, “for too long, the presidential decisions and actions of Dr. Shürhozelie  Liezietsu was engulfed  within the perimeter of four deleterious  tenets .i.e autocratic, dictatorial, undemocratic and unconstitutional”. While suspensions and expulsions of the party legislators became the order of the day, Dr. Shürho abusively converted the NPF party into a family fiefdom, it alleged.<\/p>\n

The NPF CEC then supported and endorsed the decision of NPF Legislature Party taken on July 31, 2017.<\/p>\n

 It also adopted another resolution that, with the expiry of the 15 days deadline on August 13,  for Dr. Shürhozelie to step down as the president, the NPF CEC unanimously agreed that Neiphiu Rio shall no longer be the “interim president” but will become the full-fledged president of NPF.<\/p>\n
