JP Nadda assures to put all efforts to bring ‘peace’ in Nagaland during PM Modi’s third term

By NTN

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) National President, Jagat Prakash Nadda attended a campaign rally for the People’s Democratic Alliance’s consensus candidate for the lone Nagaland Lok Sabha seat, Dr Chumben Murry at Chümoukedima on Saturday.
Addressing the rally, Nadda mentioned that the Modi Government had signed the Framework Agreement in 2015 and the Agreed Position in 2017 and assured that when Narendra Modi “is elected” Prime Minister for the third time, the “accord” would be taken forward “real time” and that the government would also do everything to bring “peace” in Nagaland.
The BJP chief alleged that development and prosperity had been stalled in the State because the Congress Party never respected the time and opportunity given to them. He further said that the Congress Party followed the “get the votes and forget them policy” which is why it is fighting for a seat in Delhi while it has no Legislator in the Nagaland State Assembly in Kohima.
Nadda claimed that the picture has changed under the leaderships of PM Modi, Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio and Deputy Chief Ministers Yanthungo Patton and TR Zeliang. “Modi Ji has changed the culture of politics. Modi Ji has changed the definition of politics. Modi Ji has changed the style of politics. Modi Ji has changed the approach of politics”, he stated.
JP Nadda also said that while it was the time of ignorance under the Congress regime, today, the BJP’s policy of decisiveness, doorstep delivery and development.
Earlier, Nagaland Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio appreciated the BJP for extending partnership to minority parties and stated that it “exhibits secularism and inclusive approach” of the national party and its respect for regional identity. He said that it is a “special privilege” that the BJP is supporting the NDPP candidate in Nagaland and NPF candidate in Manipur.

IND candidate Hayithung Lotha endorses NBCC’s Clean Election Movement

By NTN

Independent candidate for Nagaland Lok Sabha Constituency, Hayithung Bill Lotha has declared support for Nagaland Baptist Church Coucil’s (NBCC) Clean Election Movement (CEM) and its call for 152 hours chain of prayer for the upcoming election.
In a statement issued on Saturday, Lotha said that every election, there is “blatant tribalism/clanism, range/village ism, muscle power, electoral coup/booth capturing, free flow of alcohol/drugs abuse, vote buying and money power at play,” which totally negates the basic core principles of Christianity.” He therefore welcomed CEM ‘s appeal to all citizens to "Vote consciously by fearing God, and exercising God given ability to choose right from wrong".
Reacting to Janata Dal (United)’s criticism of the NBCC-CEM’s statement, Hayithung Lotha said that “it is very childish, immature, shameful and morally wrong on the part of JD (U) or for that matter any other political party to openly criticise the NBCC which is the apex Christian body in our State whom lakhs of Christians in Nagaland revere with awe and respect.”
On JD(U)’s allegation on reverends, pastors and prominent church workers tacitly or even openly supporting various candidates of political parties during the State General Election 2023, Lotha said that “in a constitutional democracy every citizen of India has the right to support, campaign and vote in favour of any particular candidate belonging to any political party.” Giving the example of “a mature and deep rooted democracy” such as United States of America where the President can induct reverends/pastors as their Ecclesiastical/Spiritual Advisors, he mentioned Rev. Billy Graham had served as official Advisor under three US Presidential Administration.
The Independent candidate also appealed all “to prayerfully be a part of the NBCC call for 152 hrs Chain of Prayer for the ensuing 2024 Parliamentary Lok Sabha Elections.”

ENPO blames Nagaland Govt for failure to settle FNT before MCC announcement
Tuensang: ENPO remains resolute to honouring and upholding Chenmoho Resolution
By NTN
The Eastern Nagaland People's Organization (ENPO) has blamed the State Government for the delay in the settlement of Frontier Nagaland Territory (FNT) with the Ministry of Home Affairs before the enforcement of Model Code of Conduct (MCC) for the General Elections 2024.
In a statement, ENPO said that it has been learned that MHA had handed over the “highlights of draft MoS for FNT “to Nagaland Government in December 2023. The State government was supposed to give its comments on it before 31st December 2023, however, to this day, it is yet to deliver its comments, ENPO claimed.
Therefore, the commitment made by MHA government of India to ENPO to settle the arrangement of FNT before the MCC comes into force, “could not be materialized”, the apex organisation of the seven Eastern Nagaland tribes alleged.
Further, ENPO reiterated that it remains resolute to honouring and upholding the Chenmoho Resolution to abstain from voting in any Central or State election “with utmost sincerity”.

Nagaland Medical Students’ Association (NMSA) demands transparent recruitment for sanctioned Medical Officer posts; 3 years since medical officers were last recruited
NTN
The Nagaland Medical Students’ Association (NMSA) has today urged for the transparent recruitment for sanctioned Medical Officer Posts occupied by contractual doctors in the State’s healthcare system.
In a press statement, NMSA has expressed dissatisfaction with the recent advertisement issued by the Nagaland Public Service Commission (NPSC) vide Advertisement No. NPSC- 1/04 (VOL-I) dt.28.03.2024 for the Combined Technical Services Examination 2024, which glaringly omits recruitment for medical officer positions.
The Nagaland Medical Students’ Association (NMSA) is a professional body representing medical students and advocating for issues affecting their education, career prospects, and the healthcare system at large.

“This omission comes as a stark contrast to the growing need for healthcare professionals in the state, which has been grappling with a doctor shortage. It has been three years since medical officers were last recruited through the NPSC CTSE in 2021. Despite the government’s awareness of the state’s deficit in healthcare providers-one doctor for every 4,056 people, far from the WHO-recommended ratio of one doctor per 1,000-there has been a worrying lack of initiative to recruit for over 183 sanctioned medical officer posts currently occupied by state contract doctors and contractual COVID doctors appointees,” stated the NMSA.
The Association also highlighted the plight of more than 250 medical graduates since the last exam in 2021, awaiting an equitable, transparent, and merit-based opportunity to compete in the state NPSC Combined Technical Services Exam for Medical Officer positions. The burgeoning number of medical graduates each year only intensifies the competition, further emphasizing the urgency for recruitment, asserted the Association.

NSF calls for heightened vigilance against non-locals involved in illegal activities
NTN
The Naga Students’ Federation (NSF) has today called for a heightened vigilance against non-locals involved in illegal activities within the state and across the Naga homeland. With the recent spate of arrests, which has resulted in the apprehension of 37 individuals for possession of illegal narcotics and psychotropic substances, the Federation has underscored the urgent need for robust enforcement measures
In a press note, the NSF commended the Nagaland Police for their unwavering commitment and relentless efforts in combating the scourge of drugs within the state. “The Nagaland Police have undertaken a vigorous campaign against drug trafficking and other illegal activities, striving to uphold the safety and well-being of our society. On March 23, 2024, the Nagaland Police achieved a significant milestone in their crusade against narcotics by apprehending Bahar Uddin and his accomplices from Sonitpur, Assam,” stated the NSF.
While applauding the decisive action, which demonstrates the dedication and effectiveness of the law enforcement agencies in curbing the proliferation of illegal substances within our borders, the NSF also drew attention on the update that Bahar Uddin had previously held the position of president at Jama Masjid, New Market, Dimapur.
“The NSF finds it reprehensible that someone with such a dubious background could occupy a position of trust within a religious institution. This revelation underscores the need for greater vigilance and scrutiny in ensuring the integrity of individuals entrusted with leadership roles in our communities,” expressed the Federation.
In this regard, the NSF has issued a stern warning against any attempts to secure the release of Bahar Uddin or to advocate on his behalf.

Nagaland CEO issues notice to Dy CM Y Patton for his remarks during campaign

Kohima: Congress leader Jairam Ramesh condemns Patton’s remarks as ‘corrupt and anti-democratic’

By NTN

The Chief Electoral Officer, Nagaland, Vyasan R, IAS, has issued a notice to Deputy Chief Minister Yanthungo Patton for his remarks encouraging unethical voting practices which was caught on camera and later uploaded on social media.

The order stated that the said video was confirmed to be “part of the campaign speech made by Shri Yanthungo Patton in favour of the People Democratic Alliance (PDA) consensus candidate, Dr Chumben Murry of National Democratic Progressive Party (NDPP) during the meeting at LTC Conference Hall, Wokha Town at 1:00 PM on 5 April 2024.”
The order also stated that the video shows Y Patton “inciting village functionaries such as Council Chairman, Gaon Buras and Polling agents to cast multiple votes and hence interfere with the free exercise of electoral right of the villagers.”

“And whereas such interference is violative of Section 171C of the Indian Penal Code, 1860. And whereas impersonation is an offence under Section 171D of the Indian Penal Code, 1860.

Now therefore, you are to show-cause at the earliest why action should not be taken against you”, the CEO stated in the order.
Earlier on Tuesday, during a press conference in Dimapur, Congress leader Jairam Ramesh has condemned Patton’s remarks as “corrupt and anti-democratic”. Ramesh said that he understands that the village institutions have very special roles in Naga society but democracy is based on “One Person, One Vote”.

He also told the media persons that Congress would be filing a formal complaint against the Deputy Chief Minister and would seek appointment with the Election Commission of India to take things forward.

Govt schools in Tuensang’s Longkhim facing hardship due to non-receipt of funds for mid-day meals
Tuensang: Teacher raises suspicion of possible corruption in system
By NTN correspondent
Public schools under Sub-Divisional Education Office (SDEO) Longkhim in Tuensang district are reportedly in crisis due to the non-receipt of cooking cost and Food Grant under PM Poshan (formerly called mid-day meal scheme). Under this scheme, children studying in primary and upper primary government and government aided schools are provided with nutritious lunches.
The delay in the disbursal of the funds is causing hindrances to the operation of our institutions, a frustrated Assistant Headmaster of a government school has written to the District Education Officer, Tuensang district, appealing for urgent intervention.
In the letter, the ADH disclosed that the requisite funds had been deposited by the Directorate, however, the schools are yet to receive the allocated amount from the SDEO, Longkhim.
“It is incredibly frustrating and disheartening that despite our diligent efforts in submitting our account details to SDEO Longkhim year ago, the necessary actions have not been taken to facilitate the transfer of funds from their office to ours,” the ADH stated.
Accusing the office of the SDEO Longkhim of “apparent incompetence or deliberate negligence” and the teacher raised concerns of possible corruption in the system and urged prompt and effective action to rectify the situation.
“I am prepared to escalate it to the attention of the Anti-Corruption Bureau for further investigation,” the ADH said.
Besides providing nutritious meals to students studying in classes 1-8, the other objectives of the mid-day meals are to enhance enrolment and to reduce school drop-outs.

Manipur is just trailer of what BJP-RSS will do to Northeast: Congress’ Jairam Ramesh says in Dimapur

By NTN

Jairam Ramesh, former Union Minister and General Secretary (Communications), said on Tuesday that whatever is happening in Manipur is but a trailer to what the BJP-RSS government will do to the other North Eastern States if it comes back to power at Centre. He claimed, “They will divide North East on religion, caste, language, eating habits.”
The Congress leader was in Dimapur ahead of the Lok Sabha elections where he held a press conference. Today also happened to be Jairam Ramesh’s 70th birthday.
Responding to a question on the suspension of Free Movement Region and the decision to fence the Indo-Myanmar border, the Congress leader said that these were the direct result of the Manipur conflict and said that Nagaland Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio should answer why he could not convince the Union Government since they are allies. He also claimed that NE leaders such as Rio, Meghalaya CM Conrad Sangma and Arunachal Pradesh CM Pema Khandu are siding with the BJP because they need the ‘washing machine’, without which they would be in jail.
On the Framework Agreement signed in 2015, Ramesh said that it is a reflection of the long years of negotiation between GoI and NSCN IM, however the Congress do not know the details of what in the FA. He stated that the Party has been demanding in and outside the Parliament for the details to be disclosed. He maintained that Congress wants peace, social harmony in Nagaland and for Article 371 A to be implemented in letter and in spirit.
Answering to a question on Eastern Nagaland, the INC leader said that imbalances in development reflects bad governance and must be addressed. He suggested Autonomous District Council under the 6th Schedule as the instrument in the Constitution that could perhaps resolve the issue.

IN DEFENCE OF EASTERN NAGALAND PEOPLE'S ORGANISATION- A Legal Discourse

Author Dr Aniruddha Babar is Director, Project Constitutional Justice, Tuensang, and Senior Faculty, Dept of Political Science, Tetso College, Nagaland

In the Indian context, the entitlement to refrain from engaging in election-related activities, encompassing abstention from voting in general elections, stands as an indispensable facet of democratic liberty and individual self-determination. The Constitution of India, while affirming the citizens' right to exercise their franchise freely, equally recognizes the prerogative to refrain from such exercise without apprehension of retaliation or legal repercussion.

This entitlement finds manifestation in various provisions of the Constitution, such as Article 19(1)(a) which guarantees freedom of speech and expression, thereby encompassing the right to abstain from voting as a fundamental aspect of freedom of expression. Additionally, Article 21, guaranteeing the right to life and personal liberty, has been interpreted expansively by the judiciary to include the right to make choices regarding political participation, including the decision to abstain from voting. Notably, the Supreme Court's rulings in cases like PUCL v. Union of India have underscored the intrinsic link between the right to vote and the right not to vote, affirming that any attempt to coerce citizens into voting would contravene their fundamental rights. Furthermore, India's commitment to international human rights norms, as articulated in instruments like the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), further reinforces the right to abstain from participating in the political process as a component of freedom of opinion and expression.
