Nagaland village councils pledge to stir against Forest (Conservation) Amendment Act

 Four village councils in the Sendenyu area of Nagaland’s Tseminyu district have initiated a movement against the Forest (Conservation) Amendment Act, 2023, passed in Parliament on August 2. 

These village councils (VCs) of the Rengma Naga community have appealed to the VCs of all Naga tribes across Nagaland to take up the matter of “great urgency and imminent crisis” to create pressure on the State government so that the 60-member Assembly rejects the Act. 

The four VCs cover the Sendenyu, New Sendenyu, Thongsunyu, and Lostuphen villages.
