DIMAPUR: Naga People's Front (NPF) Legislature Party leader Kuzholuzo (Azo) Nienu on Tuesday asked the Centre why it was not inking the final agreement to resolve the decades-old Naga political issue.
He also demanded that the final agreement for solution to the Naga issue should be signed before Christmas. He urged the BJP-led Centre to be "faithful" to its slogan, "election for solution", that was raised before the 2018 Nagaland assembly elections, adding that the saffron party should live upto to its commitment.
However, Nienu said the Centre should bring out the common draft and place it in the public domain for to reach a consensus among the people before signing the final pact. He said this at the 52nd Phek Basa Sports Meet where he was the inaugural guest, the NPF press bureau said in a release.
The NPF leader also asserted that the party is committed to bringing a final solution to the Naga political issue, which is honourable, acceptable and inclusive. He added that the priority of his party is for "solution and not election".
Nienu said the NPF is not a party that chases power or position, but stands for the cause and welfare of the Naga people. He maintained that the NPF has joined the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) government so that all the legislators of the ruling coalition can make a collective effort for early settlement of the Naga political issue. Nienu is the co-chairman of the UDA.
He asserted that his party legislators are ready to the pave way if any solution comes. However, he said if the Election Commission of India announces the polls in the state, then the NPF will have no other option but to contest.
The Assembly poll in the state is due early next year.
