PRESS RELEASE
The 30th August 2012
As the Tripartite Talk for an alternative arrangement enters the fourth round on 31st August 2012 in New Delhi we appreciate the sincerity and commitment of the Ministry of Home Affairs, Government of India in taking forward the dialogue thus far. It is worthwhile to mention that the demand of the Nagas for a political administration outside the state Government of Manipur have been duly considered as democratic aspiration for which a tripartite talk was initiated under the Ministry of Home Affairs, Government of India. At this point of time we urged upon the Government of India to exercise its best wisdom in dealing with the pending issue basing on the fact that the case of the Nagas have been established, registered and considered by the Government through the continued democratic process.
In the meantime, as a symbol of extending our support towards the upcoming Tripartite Talk Nagas in Manipur will observe Solidarity Hour during the talk session which is scheduled to commence from 12:00 noon. The All Naga Students’ Association, Manipur appeal the Naga brethren and those who settle in Naga areas in Manipur to pray for Naga leaders and Government representatives participating in the talk, to remain in-door and restrain from all kinds of routine works for one hour, starting from 12:00 noon. Shops and office establishments are asked to down their shutters and vehicles & pedestrian to remain off the roads during this solidarity hour. For a meaningful Tripartite Talk we solicit cooperation and support of all concern.
