DIMAPUR, Jun 18: The 'joint council' of the NSCN-IM was convened today at the council headquarters, Hebron, near Dimapur in Nagaland, to deliberate on the "critical issues" confronting the Naga National movement and it reaffirmed its stance on the Indo-Naga political struggle.
The meeting adopted three resolutions and the first one declared that the NSCN-IM, under the collective leadership of Yaruiwo Q Tuccu, Kedalo Tongmeth Wangnao, Ato Kilonser Th Muivah, and Deputy Ato Kilonser Lt Gen (retd) VS Atem, VC, has never surrendered, nor will it ever compromise or surrender the sacred Naga National cause.
The second resolution said that the 'joint council' "explicitly endorses and supports the collective leadership in guiding the NSCN/GPRN and leading the Naga people in their historical movement for self-determination".
The third resolution said the 'joint council' "firmly reaffirms its commitment to stand its ground in protecting, defending, and honouring the historic Indo-Naga Framework Agreement signed on August 3, 2015, as the foundational basis for an honourable political settlement".
Meanwhile, the NSCN-IM has called upon all Naga citizens, regional authorities, and sympathizers of the cause to stand united behind the collective leadership.
