Dimapur, May 4 (EMN): Recounting history, Naga National Political Groups (NNPGs) today said indigenous minority tribes of Nagaland namely Kuki, Garo, Kachari and Mikir (Karbi) are inseparable from the honourable political solution that is acceptable to the people of Nagaland.
This view was expressed at the joint meeting of Naga National Political Groups (NNPGs) and Indigenous Minority Tribes of Nagaland (IMTN) on May 4 to exchange views and opinions on the prevailing socio-political situation confronting the people of Nagaland.

NNPGs acknowledged that the indigenous tribes of Nagaland namely Kuki, Garo, Kachari and Mikir (Karbi) have, from the very beginning of the Naga political struggle, shared the pain and suffering of the national political struggle with the rest of the tribes of Nagaland adding the history made the indigenous minority tribes of Nagaland inseparable from the honourable political solution that is acceptable to the people of Nagaland.
