DIMAPUR, April 20 (NNN): Amid the prolonged silence being maintained by the NSCN-IM on the Indo-Naga peace talks and the Naga peoples` anxiety over the much hyped Naga political settlement, the comments of NSCN-IM leaders Thuingaleng Muivah and Isak Chisi Swu has come in today on the issue.
In an exclusive interview with Witoubou, Editor of Newmai News Network at Camp Hebron, off Dimapur this afternoon, both Thuingaleng Muivah and Isak Chisi Swu said at this juncture they are not in a position to pronounce the time frame when the Naga political settlement can be brought about. Both the NSCN-IM leaders however said the Government of India is serious enough to have the Naga political solution at the earliest.
“What we want is solution to the Naga political issue. And what the Government of India wants is the solution to the Naga political issue. So given this point of situation we are hopeful of the settlement. However, it is hard to say when,” said NSCN-IM general secretary Thuingaleng Muivah.
On being asked if they have any plan to meet Naga National Council (NNC) president Adinno Phizo, the daughter of legendary A.Z.Phizo when she arrives in Nagaland in the next few days, Th Muivah said,” Since her political stand is not clear to us, there is no point meeting her.”
Currently, both Muivah and Swu are intensively engaging with the Naga civil organisations, individuals and well wishers.
Mentionably, late last year speculations had reached a high pitch that the protracted Naga political problem was about to be settled in a few months time. The speculations were even fueled by the comment of Union Home minister Sushilkumar Shinde who had said that “settlement” to the Naga issue would be brought about by March, 2013 or before the Nagaland assembly elections.
