NSCN (K) vows to continue struggle DIMAPUR, AUGUST 21 (MExN): The NSCN (K) has asserted that a day would come when the “Nagas in India” will flock to the East (Myanmar occupied Nagaland) to grab a share of its natural resources, as and when political stability and a political solution is achieved. “Visionless and materialistic Nagas may continue to decry SS Khaplang’s pan-Naga political approach as of now in order to justify their eager preparedness to give up Naga’s birth right for a pittance from India, but time and history shall be the witness,” stated a press note from its Military Supervisor, Lt Gen Niki Sumi. The NSCN (K) said that it “practically holds sway over the entire stretch of unexplored virgin land-locked mineral rich area.” It added that Myanmar governance in this area is “only symbolic” in nature, and that the NSCN (K) has been maintaining deep rooted de-facto rule for decades. It also said that the NSCN (K) holds the “key to India’s North-East political problem, India’s look East policy and her National Security as well.” It added that “the need for India and Myanmar to seriously engage the NSCN is not a mere political hypothesis but drawn from the factual political assessment lest the issue is exploded to international controversy.” It added that its stand on the Naga struggle should not be a cause of apprehension to any other Naga political group engaged in political process with India. It stated that the NSCN (K) would not stand in the way to “any settlement that may arrive between India and other Naga political groups.” It said that the Naga struggle for freedom has endured for more than half a century and that the NSCN (K) would continue with the struggle “no matter how illusive or distant the destination may appear.” It added that the “legacy passed on to us shall be handed over to posterity without blemish and betrayal.” Source: morungexpress/frontpage/101502.html
