It said the then Government of India interlocutor Swaraj Kaushal had told the media during the Indo-Naga peace talks held in Paris in 1998 that the ‘ceasefire covered not only Assam, Nagaland and Manipur but even Delhi up to Paris.’<br /> <br /> The ‘Joint Statement’ signed by former Government of India interlocutor, K Padnamabhaiah and NSCN (IM) General Secretary, Th Muivah in Bangkok on June 14, 2001, which stated that it was ‘mutually agreed upon’ that ‘the cease-fire agreement is between the Government of India and the NSCN as two entities without territorial limits’, the Naga Hoho added.<br /> <br /> Most importantly, when the NSCN (IM) collective leadership met former Prime Minister, AB Vajpayee, in Osaka, Japan, on December 8, 2002, Vajpayee had assured the NSCN leaders that ‘where there is fighting there will be ceasefire’.<br /> <br /> “In this backdrop, the Naga Hoho appeal to all the stakeholders or negotiators not to mislead the people with regard to ceasefire coverage and the same spirit should be maintained even with other Naga political groups so long the ceasefire remains. Failing to uphold the mutual agreement by both the entities, political ramification would be irreparable,” the Naga Hoho cautioned.<br /> <br /> Source: The Sangai Express
