Nagaland’s minister Kaito urges Eastern Nagaland Peoples’ Organisation to reconsider election abstention

DIMAPUR — Nagaland Minister for PWD (Roads and Bridges), G Kaito Aye, has appealed to the Eastern Nagaland Peoples’ Organisation (ENPO) to review its decision to abstain from the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

In a personal appeal letter, Aye acknowledged the presence of various grievances and concerns, suggesting that the decision to abstain from the elections might stem from a place of discontentment.

“However, I firmly believe that our collective strength lies in our ability to engage constructively with the democratic system, rather than disengaging from it,” he said, requesting the ENPO to come together as responsible citizens to exercise their democratic rights in a true spirit of unity and solidarity.

Further, he appealed to the ENPO to work towards positive change “through active participation and collaboration to ensure that your aspirations are justly represented in the highest echelons of governance as we pursue further to resolve your issue together.”
