Nagaland: SKK assembly seeks suggestion to resolve impasse

Dimapur, Aug. 16 (EMN): The All Sümi Students’ Union (SKK) has issued a statement pertaining to what it termed as ‘unnecessary impasse’ that has affected the normal of SKK for the tenure 2022-24 in order to find a logical conclusion.

The SKK admitted that the dissolved executive council had inadvertently committed some unwarranted mistakes for which rapprochement steps have already been undertaken.

In a joint statement, SKK union assembly speaker, Ninoto Chophy, and the assembly secretary, Vitopu Ayemi, stated that at no point of time, the SKK, Sumi Kukami Hoho (SKH), Sumi Totimi Hoho (STH) and other mass-based Sumi civil societies had ever had any frictions or misunderstandings amongst themselves since all the Sumi civil organisations have been working independently under the apex body of Sumi Hoho with their own laid down constitutions and precedence.

It added that ever since the Sumi Hoho arbitrarily and unilaterally usurped and executed the provision of the constitution of the SKK on April 18, 2022, the various authorities under SKK have appealed time and again to reconsider the decision made by Sumi Hoho so as to allow the SKK to initiate appropriate actions to any of its officials according to the laid down provisions in the constitution.

Mentioning that no organisations or individuals concerned should usurp the authority laid down in the constitution of SKK and execute the same under any circumstances, requested the sensible and right-thinking Sumi public leaders and organisations to review the unethical actions committed so far in the interest of all.

It added that the SKK, since its inception in early part of 1940 at Imulomi IN (Inspection Bungalow) till date, has grown from strength to strength leading the Sumi community in particular on various issues as a single united organisation of the Sumi students’ community wherever they might reside and would remain so in the days to come.

It, therefore, appealed to any SKK units or student leaders, who might have any issues with the union, to come forward and clarify any misunderstandings. It assured that any issue that concerns SKK could be settled under the available provisions in the constitution.
