Dimapur, September 3, 2014: The NSCN (IM) has expressed “serious doubt” on the “sincerity” of the Government of India in appointing R.N. Ravi as their interlocutor for the Indo-Naga peace talks.
In a press statement from its MIP, the NSCN (IM) has noted that in political negotiation that has lasted 17 years and 80 rounds of talks, its talk team led by Chief Negotiator, Th. Muivah, has never come across R.N. Ravi. It, thus, expressed being “flabbergasted” as to “who/which Naga has given a commitment to R.N. Ravi that the solution of the Indo-Naga issue will be within the framework of the Constitution of India as reported in the Media.”
“He seems to have been given the unguided and unguarded mandate or the, ‘the liberty to change the format of the talks, making negotiation time-bound and expeditious’ for the Indo-Naga talks,” noted the press statement.
In order for the Indo-Naga peace talks to “proceed in a positive manner...,” the NSCN (IM) sought the involvement of “broadminded and forward-thinking people who have the sincere and committed interest for India and peace.”
