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”.
