Dimapur, March 29 (EMN): The Central Nagaland Tribes Council (CNTC) welcomes Dr. SC Jamir, who has returned home after completing his assignment as governor of various state in India.
The CNTC’s media cell termed Dr. SC Jamir ‘one of the greatest living statesmen and a stalwart of politics amongst the Nagas, whose immense contribution’ in the state and national politics is truly worthy of praise.
