CNCCI directs shops to open as usual on Aug 3

Confederation of Nagaland Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CNCCI) has directed the trade bodies in all the districts to carry out the business as usual on August 3, in their respective districts.

The directive comes a day after NSCN (I-M) had called for “total closure of shops and business establishments in Nagalim” starting midnight of August 2 till 12 noon of August 3, as a mark of protest against Government of India for keeping silent on the Framework Agreement even after six years.

In a directive to the presidents of district chamber of commerce and industry, CNCCI vice chairman S Abenthung Ngullie and general secretary Dr. Seyievilie stated that there had been confusion over closure of business establishments on August 3. 

CNCCI, however, stated that it has not received any such letter or intimation or request for whole Nagaland business establishment closure from any corner. Further, CNCCI said that after consultation with district chamber of commerce and industry (confederate) there had been consensus to carry out business as usual on August 3, 2021.

CNCCI has, therefore, directed trade bodies in districts not to be confused, but conduct business as usual.
