Power dept workers calls off agitation

All Nagaland Electricity Field Workers Association (ANEFWA) has called off its proposed phase-wise agitation that was scheduled to begin April 14, following a meeting with Power minister KG Kenye and senior officials of Power department.


ANEFWA president Vethinu Kezo, general secretary Vemesa Kera, and vice presidents Bokaho Sema and Wenlao Konyak expressed gratitude for the positive outcome and assurances received during the meeting. The association expressed hope for timely finalization of the assurances discussed.


It may be recalled that ANEFWA, in a letter to the E-in-C, reminded of the ultimatum submitted on February 10, 2025 and its subsequent developments. ANEFWA expressed regret that despite assurance being made during the joint meeting on March 5, 2025, nothing has materialized, which it maintained displayed “the passivity of the authorities concerned.”

They said that its demands were genuine and without which it has become “unbearably hard” for members of the association to serve the government/citizen.
