By Oken Jeet Sandham KOHIMA, Apr 3 (NEPS): President of major ruling Naga People’s Front (NPF), Dr Shurhozelie has rubbished as “wild charges” senior opposition Congress MLA Kongam Konyak’s allegation that there used to be Naga underground factional clashes in Tirap and Changlang districts of Arunachal Pradesh wherever NPF party was campaigning there.
It may be mentioned that in the recently concluded Assembly session here, senior opposition Congress MLA from Mon district Kongam Konyak alleged that whenever the NPF party campaigned in Tirap and Changlang district, Naga underground factional clashes took place. The opposition MLA had even told the NPF not to spoil Assam too.
Talking to NEPS here on Sunday, Dr Shurhozelie expressed utter surprise on the senior Congress MLA’s allegation saying that they had never campaigned in Tirap and Changlang. At the same time, the NPF chief further questioned as to how anybody could blame any political parties, just because Naga underground factional clashes broke out there. “It is ridiculous and wild charge,” he stated.
Dr Shurhozelie, who is also senior DAN minister, reiterated that the demand of the Eastern Naga People’s Organization (ENPO) for a separate “Frontier Nagaland State” had weakened the “ongoing peace process.” The Naga people—be it NSCN (IM) or NSCN (K) and NNC—they all had been fighting for the sovereignty of the Nagas, whereas some group tried to “divide” the Nagas, he stated. “So I said it has weakened the cause of the Nagas,” he added.
With regard to the expansion of NPF to Arunachal Pradesh and Manipur, the NPF chief explained the party’s position on taking decision to spread their political activities in the neighboring States particularly those States where Nagas inhabited. Dr Shurhozelie said there had been demands from friends from outside Nagaland that the activities of their political party should also reach to their respective areas. At the same time, some national political parties too had requested them (NPF) to allow them to become part of party.
“As such, we in the party (NPF) have discussed the matter and carefully studied at the party constitution if we want to spread our political activities to other States of the region,” the NPF chief stated.
Dr Shurhozelie further narrated that since other national political parties too had their units in all the States and Union Territories, “why not they also think of establishing their NPF Units in Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur and Assam where Nagas live.”
As the same time, the NPF chief disclosed that their party being a registered political party had to take approval from the Election Commission of India (ECI) and the nomenclature of Nagaland People’s Front had to be changed to Naga People’s Front to suit the local political environment of those respective States. “I think there is nothing wrong to change from Nagaland to Naga to embrace all walks of life,” he added.
In the meantime, while they were working to complete the procedure and waiting the approval from the ECI, the announcement of Arunachal Pradesh election came in. So those aspiring candidates who wanted to fight in NPF tickets in Arunachal election waited till the last moment but could not fight as NPF candidates due to the delay of approval from the ECI, the NPF president narrated.
As the last date of filing nomination was fast approaching, these aspiring candidates became restless. And in case they failed, they would have a point. “So we have told them to take their own decision,” Dr Shurhozelie admitted adding that they felt very “embarrassed” as ECI approval did not come till the last moment.
So some had to fight as “Independent”, while some as candidates of Arunachal People’s Party, he recalled saying, “Otherwise, these aspiring candidates had even given written commitment that they would fight as NPF candidates.”

There is a very unfortunate misconception in Manipur about the duty of a citizen with regards to law keeping. This is about the act of reporting by ordinary citizens to law keeping authorities of unusual events they witness which may constitute a breach of law. Rather than consider this attitude as an obligation, ordinary citizens often treated this as sneaking. Perhaps this is a reflection of the respect the people by and large have of the law, all the same this must not result in what the popular adage says, throwing the baby away with the bath water. For the truth is, every citizen must realise the responsibility he or she has to shoulder in the enterprise of law keeping. What may be necessary is, as in countries like the USA, to make this responsibility obligatory by law. That is to say, not reporting a potential crime, especially those which will not result in personal safety compromised, should be made a cognizable offence under the law.
In a lawless and violence ridden place like Manipur, this argument would need some qualification. Ordinary citizens cannot be expected to report on the movement of armed combatants of the raging insurgency in the land. For one thing this would amount to putting their own lives in danger, and for another, insurgency is no ordinary crime and as so many have articulated in the past, it is in many ways a radical expression of dissent, and its solution would have to be nuanced, rather than the usual linear policing crime fighting approach. However leaving this issue for the government to tackle imaginatively but firmly, there are so many other cognizable breaches of law by ordinary citizens which other more conscientious citizens must take it upon themselves to prevent through the invocation of the law using the simple handles available to them. The simplest of these is reporting these matters to the police or other concerned authorities. To take just a few examples, in the past one month, the entire state has been somewhat shaken awake by the aggressive campaign of the government to clean up illegal power connections in the Imphal area. All these illegal activities were happening right under the noses of every citizen, in particular those who have been honestly paying the taxes for whatever amount of power they consume.
Yet in all this while, there has never been even a single report of putative breach of law from any citizen. This is despite the fact that these thefts are from the common pool of service resources and thereby robbing from it by anybody would amount to robbing from everybody, in particular the honest consumers. Thankfully, at least in the case of electricity, there has been a public interest litigation, PIL, which is in a way a last resort in the absence of a citizen vigil which should have been always present. The despairing fact about Manipur is, electricity is just one case of neglect of citizen duty, for there are plenty more. Water supply is another very prominent one. Today, if a survey were to be done, half of Imphal households would be tapping piped municipal water illegally, and in manners not prescribed, making siphon holes larger than allowed, thus depriving other consumers of their shares of potable water. Yet again, as in the case of electricity, everybody witnesses this but apart from a bitter frown here and there, nobody has thought it his duty to complain that he is being robbed in broad daylight.
Having said this, the blame for this confounding reluctance of the citizens to keep vigil of public utilities, and also against other similar crimes, must also go to the government, in particular the police. There have been far too complaints of policemen on duty refusing to take notice of complaints by citizens. Instead, such whistle blowers often end up more harangued for they are looked upon by the police with suspicion and the onus of proving their complaints thrown back at them. The time has come for a radical change of attitude both of the police as well as the citizens. If they must work hand in hand, they must both be sensitized as well as made to realise what wonders they can do by cooperating with each other towards improving everybody’s everyday quality of life.

By Nameirakpam Bobo MeiteiWhat hope does a state give to its people? The hope that their state is altogether a different establishment in which every individual can claim his or her rights, and if this state turns out to be quite the contrary, and its conducts barely reflecting the wishes of its people, instead of giving hope it has begun to terrorise its very own people, then should people come forward to court a establishment which is willing to treat its people as subjects rather than respectable citizens? When a state has reached a point where no one feels the need to approach it to seek justice and all that it can bestow to those who have empowered them is tyranny should people live on under it?
One academic laid down several questions regarding the conducts of the Indian government in the state of Manipur on removal of Armed Forces Special Powers Act(AFSPA), one among them was “How many people in India know about AFSPA and the existing problem of insurgency in the reason and why people are gung-ho in asking the Act be repealed when they themselves have no solution to the existing insurgency problem?”
Only a clause in the Act is what people need to know, the clause that gives complete immunity to guilty security personnel. While attempting to solve a complex prolonged-matter the state has to be consistent and any fruitful result is for the betterment of the people. But what if their attempts have proved futile while enough damage has been to a people who are caught up in the conflict? What difference can one see between those proscribed groups, the state is fighting supposedly on behalf of the people, and its soldiers, which have been given the task to handle and have turned against those who they have sworn to protect? Should we expect that state agents behave just like those proscribed group or worse than them because they happened to be caught up in a conflict zone?
Here one doesn’t overlook the existing insurgency, while one is asking the Act be repealed from the affected region. One understands that existing problem should be solved, perhaps with a different approach altogether since the old approach of “combat and destroy” doesn’t prove productive, and can expect to be more human; start conducting in a fashion that reflects the wishes of the people, human rights not being violated and if violated they should have faith that justice will be done.Some say why the elected representatives in power don’t say much against it and how they have come back with a majority to power? But why did the government give in the army’s opposition to the removal despite strong recommendation by several committees set up under the behest of prime minister? Even if the state government wished how much of its wish could be carried out when it finds itself in a situation in which New Delhi can easily override state power? If one is to talk about the voting back Ibobi government in Manipur, which didn’t say a word against during election campaigns, one could also question the overall maturity of Indian democracy. Despite the clear knowledge that BJP leaders were responsible for the demolition of Babri Mosque why they have voted back repeatedly in a secular India?
Perhaps India has become a virtual military state in which civilian concerns are no more valued in the regions suffering from insurgency. If India claims that it has the power to destroy external forces at wars then it should also be convinced of its ability to eliminate those elements which have only been considered detrimental, and if it cannot, then perhaps it should reconsider its strategy and try to address the decade-old problem through political means. Unfortunately no serious initiative has come forward from New Delhi except some leaders dropping at election times and scattering few lines asking to “join the mainstream” when those who have been living in the very heart of Delhi from this region don’t feel that they are treated as a part owing to the cast attitudes of the people. One just have to look at the ongoing decade-old peace dialogue between NSCN(I-M) and Delhi, what milestone both the parties have brought forward before a person who was boy when the peace talks started and now the author of this piece?
If New Delhi wants people from this region to join the so-called “mainstream” perhaps it should value the dignity of those who live in the so-called disturbed zones under the sly shade of Armed Forces Special Power Act. How could a humiliated people come forward to join a “mainstream” which it sees as the violator of their basic fundamental rights and making a mockery of their dignity?
