The outgoing Governor feels that ‘irrational principles’ will not help the Naga cause. 

While addressing the official farewell, outgoing Nagaland Governor Om Prakash Sharma has urged the people to further consolidate peace and reconciliation campaign for a lasting solution to Naga issue and asked the State Government and security forces to deal the disruptive forces with firm hands. When every section of Naga society was crying for peace and total halt to criminal activities in the State, certain elements continued their violent acts without giving any heed to the people’s aspiration, the Governor said.

Mr. Sharma opined that while Naga Hoho, churches, NGOs and tribal leaders had been working hard for a reconciliation in the Naga society without any precondition, such elements were harping on some “irrational principles” which would not help in reaching a final settlement of the Naga issue. Asserting that to arrive at any solution involvement of the people and their elected Government was imperative, he called upon the State Government to continue its development work and deal the disruptive forces with firm hands.
