Reaffirming its demand for Frontier Nagaland, Eastern Nagaland Peoples’ Organisation (ENPO) Friday asserted that getting statehood was the only means for Eastern Nagas. Speaking at the Lao-ong Mo, a post harvest festival of the Konyaks at Mon local ground, ENPO president, T Kekongchim Yimchungru, said the demand for Frontier Nagaland that began with endorsement from the people of eastern Nagaland was a legitimate right.
“We became the citizens of Indian by circumstances and not by choice,” he added.
ENPO president said Eastern Nagaland has numerous issues and problems like socio-economic, employment, development and discrimination by others in various fields.
He, therefore, urged upon the people to keep on supporting until the demand was achieved and fulfilled by the government of India.
