Kohima Peace meet organised by Nagaland CM Neiphiu Rio sounds anti-Modi Govt, anti-BJP, anti-Amit Shah

"Are some parts of Manipur and some voters of Chief Minister N Biren Singh celebrating today" ?

Who has been taken for a ride ???

 Meeting Minutes

Appreciated the Negotiating Parties for their role at the negotiating table and for upholding the Ceasefire agreement. 

Appealed for unity among all stakeholders and the Naga people at large. Resolved to facilitate the Political factions to come together. 

Resolved to not allow the NPGs from forming any new faction. 

Elevate the talk to political level at the Government of India. 

The interlocutor should be a union minister who enjoys the full confidence of the Govt of India. 

CM Rio : Plays his card ..... sounds anti-Amit Shah !!

Biggest failure of the meet is --

 No noise for early solution !  

The line - "The interlocutor should be a union minister who enjoys the full confidence of the Govt of India." --- is typical expression of no confidence on Union Home Minister Amit Shah !! 

The Govt of India may not be surprised, but the demand for a new minister to be interlocutor is a risky area Rio has touched and this will certainly leave Amit Shah and his team fuming and aggrieved.  

Even before the start of the meeting, New Delhi was not quite enthusiastic unlike the past. The refrain was - things  are becoming "lip-service" repeatedly as nothing really moves in the ultimate.

A retired military officer too sounded skeptical. "The old model was - We are ready to pave the way for Indo-Naga political solution... This has been replaced. Now we get to read, we are ready to pave the way IF Solution comes".

Moreover, now with these set of resolutions, the Rio government still appears to be influenced by one particular faction. 

Yoga or no Yoga : Time to get up vis-a-via Naga issue, Nagaland and Manipur 

The pro-Solution umbrella organisation NNPG on Sept 11 welcomed the Sept 12 initiative and stated that the meeting "should clear away all the cobwebs in the way of political Solution".

Nothing like that happened at least the Resolutions make it clear !!

"As the Consultative meeting is called within the parameters and extent of executive power of Nagaland state, the resolution (of Sept 12 meet) has to endorse all such matters, whatsoever settled on matters pertaining to Nagaland state alone. Question of sharing the sovereign powers with the Union of India would take its natural path in the near future," the NNPG Working Committee had said.

Today's Resolutions are crystal clear snub to this thought process.
