It has also sought “assistance and co-operations” from all “to ensure conducive working atmospheres at Doyang.”
The NSCN (IM) claimed that the directive has been issued “to usher in peace and tranquility at Doyang as such non compliance with the same shall be viewed as deliberate obstructions to the GPRN’s order on LOU and shall be seriously viewed and shall invite appropriate action.”
The armed group asserted that “God has gifted the people with the project” and the GPRN is “compelled to correct the present negative factors/concepts which are hindering in the peaceful and smooth functioning of the union and DHEP/NEEPCO thereby depriving the needy displaced people.”
The NSCN (IM) has asked all the individual land owners, village councils, the public in general of Zunheboto and Wokha districts and DHEP/ NEEPCO authorities for their kind co-operations to join hands in transforming the project into better place.”
