Aggrieved landowners affected along the stretch of National Highway-29 from Purana Bazaar to Chümoukedima held a meeting on May 2 at Hotel Saramati Conference Hall to deliberate on discrepancies in the land survey process and rejection of compensation claims.
At the meeting, the members, expressed serious concern over inconsistencies in survey records and the lack of transparency in the evaluation process, which they said had resulted in denial of rightful compensation to the majority of affected landowners.
After extensive discussion, the house unanimously resolved to come together as a unified body to pursue their legitimate claims. It was agreed to formally apprise the Government and concerned authorities to urgently address the grievances and ensure a fair, transparent and just resolution.
The meeting also approved the appointment of K. Samuel as coordinator, Kheto R. Zhimomi as press & media secretary, and Chubakumla Ao as assistant press & record secretary. To ensure inclusive representation, tribe representatives were appointed: Mutsitso Kezo (Chakhesang), T. Sepipa (Sangtam), Khrietuo Yoshu (Angami), Sashi Longchar (Ao), and Tonizhe Yeptho (Sümi).
The gathering concluded with a strong collective commitment to pursue their cause unitedly and through lawful, constructive means, seeking justice and rightful compensation for all affected landowners.
