PRESS RELEASE

17th Feb. 2008.



With "Nagaland State Assembly Election" slated for March 2008, the increasing tempo of campaign by various candidates under different banners is being noticed across the length and breath of Nagaland. As usual it is a game of one-upmanship resorting to any means to get elected. But in the race to out do one another there is also the tendency to use the good name of NSCN unceremoniously and giving wrong side of the story that NSCN is involved in the election. Such situation warranted the collective leadership of NSCN to make its stand very clear that NSCN cannot compromise its principle by participating in one way or the other, in the election conducted under the Indian constitution. Therefore, no party, be it NPF, Congress, BJP or any other political parties involved have anything to do with NSCN to get its blessing. What is of utmost importance to NSCN is the 'Cause' and therefore, there should be no confusion about this. The issue of the magnitude of Indo- Naga political problem cannot be diluted under any circumstances, come what may.
