Will the Decade long Cease Fire and talking peace lead to war or peace?


The current Indo-Naga Peace Talks will conclude a decade full of hope and expectations. But, apart from some recognition concerning the unique history and situation of the Naga Peoples, so far these talks did not yield any result.



On the grounds of genuinely reaching out for a peaceful solution to the decades old Indo-Naga conflict The Naga International Support Center urges both the Government of India and the Government of the Peoples Republic of Nagaland, GPRN, to extend the ceasefire



To pave way for an honourable solution it is absolutely essential for India & Nagaland to extend the Ceasefire for if the Government of India, while talking peace remains stubborn and undermines the talks by playing the divide and rule game. this time around it may get serious indeed. The stand of the GPRN of the Naga Peoples is serious and clear: when India persists in its unwritten policy of subjugating the Nagas militarily or otherwise, there will be trouble; when the cease-fire breaks now more than ever there is bound to be loss of life on both sides.



To avoid further and more extensive bloodshed the Naga International Support Center calls on the International Community, in particular the United Nations, UNPO, all Human Rights Organizations and the International Press, to urge India and the Nagas to extend the ceasefire. Allow this festering wound to be dressed thoroughly and urge India to allow others to mediate in finding an honourable exit out of this already five decade old quagmire.
