NSCN (Reformation) through its MIP stated that ‘Black Day’ was observed on March 28, 2016 at Cease Fire Supervisory Board Office, Mon Hq. remembering, what it described as “betrayal act of SS. Khaplang who abrogated 14 years old cease fire with Government of India on that day last year throwing all his loyal workers into the furnace of angry GoI.”
MIP accused Khaplang of betraying his “two faithful sons’ — Y.Wangtin Naga and P.Tikhak, erstwhile supervisor and member CFSB respectively, who later on assumed the office of president and ato kilonser of NSCN(R).
MIP stated that two leaders were expelled “not for any wrong done either to SS. Khaplang or to the Naga Nation but only for given attendance to proposed cease fire meeting on March 27, 2015 at Chumukedima in his defence after killing four Indian Army in Kohima on March 26, 2015 as supervisor and member CFSB, NSCN-K.”
Following the “unilateral abrogation” of ceasefire by SS. Khaplang, MIP said the Indian Army acted in hostile manner locking of cease fire office Mon, burning down of Ponghong designated camp leading to displacement of workers of both civil authorities and Naga Armies, who “remained in the wilderness” for more than a month. MIP affirmed March 28 would remain to be ‘Black Day’ as long as NSCN(R) existed.
Earlier, NSCN (R) has asked all its workers both civil and military to observe ‘Black Day’ and “to thank the living God, the God of all Gods for His kind and protection thus far”.
