Expressing resentment over what it described as “unjustified action of the state cabinet”, which disallowed YAA golden jubilee programme scheduled from January 7-10, 2016 at Shamator, the Yimchungru student’s union Dimapur (YSUD) said the cabinet decision has caused “undue hardship both mentally and physically to the student community across Nagaland.”
In a press release, YSUD press and information secretary Adilen Yimchungru urged the YTC and YAA to stand firm in their decision of holding YAA golden jubilee at Shamator as all the student bodies “totally support the genuine initiative undertaken by the esteem leaders”.
The union at the same time requested the state government to honour the three-point charter of demands submitted by YTC and YAA.
It stated that the cabinet decision should be reviewed at the earliest before the re-scheduled YAA jubilee program from January 14-17, 2016.
According to YSUD, since the inception of Shamator town in 1950s, altogether 31 conferences, conventions and important sessions of YTC, YBBA, YBBA and ENPO have been held.
Condemning the “false propaganda” by a few sections of the dissident Yimchungru that tarnished the “very image of Yimchungru Naga”, the union requested all responsible “readers” not to be carried astray with such write-ups. It stated that Shamator village council and KAGBU “open warning” to individual and organisation should not be overlooked by competent authorities. It demanded that competent authorities quickly initiate stern action “for their provoking and inflammatory remarks”, which was capable of disrupting peace and harmony in the region.
Accusing government of “indirectly and directly answerable” for the Shamator imbroglio, the YSUD said general public of Yimchungru Naga were patiently awaiting government to review order.
Urging the government to handle the matter with seriousness, YSUD said in the event of “unwanted situation” arising due to “apathetic attitude of the government” the leaders should not be blamed.
