A Naga delegation led by Nagaland Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio met Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday to push for revival of talks between the Centre’s envoy and Isak-Muivah faction of the National Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN-IM).
The talks broke down in June after the Centre’s envoy - A.K. Mishra - excluded three political points, earlier agreed to by former Naga interlocutor R.N. Ravi, from the final proposal submitted to the NSCN-IM, said T.R. Zeliang, chairman, United Democratic Alliance (UDA), Nagaland who was present in Monday’s meeting.
The three “excluded points” are inclusion of Yehzabo (Naga constitution) into the Indian constitution, integration of Naga-dominated areas of Assam, Arunachal Pradesh and Manipur into the existing State of Nagaland and creation of regional autonomous territory council for Manipur and Arunachal Pradesh.
