Naga Peace Talks: NNPGs Seek Unified Platform For Solution

The Working Committee has formally requested the Government of India to bring put a common draft by compiling both the Framework Agreement and Agreed Position

The Working Committee of the NNPGs, which, led by Convener N Kitovo Zhimomi and all co-conveners met Government of India representative AK Mishra in Dimapur earlier this week, has underscored the importance of establishing and reconfiguring a unified common platform that facilitates the participation of all Naga Political Groups, civil societies and relevant stakeholders.

After a comprehensive discussion regarding the urgent issue currently at hand, the Working Committee has formally requested the Government of India to bring put a common draft by compiling both the Framework Agreement and Agreed Position, which have been established and reached between the Government of India and the Naga Political groups.

During the meeting, the Working Committee stressed that the initiative of coming up with a common platform must adhere to the principles outlined in the Agreed Position and Framework Agreement, as these represent the only viable pathway toward inking and finalising the agreement beyond which will be difficult.

In a statement, the Working Committee said that they were sincerely committed to protect and sacrifice the hard earned ‘Agreed Position’ at any cost, however, as the need of the hour is to unite all Naga Political Groups irrespective of any party or affiliations, they were even ready to go up to the extent of changing its nomenclature from Working Committee NNPGs to any suitable name, as the duties of the WC had completed when the Agreed Position was signed with the GOI on November 17, 2017 and subsequently completed the negotiations on October 31st 2019, with a clear intention to accommodate all Naga Political Groups on board, who may not be a part of any agreement or non-agreement.
