Delving into the importance Naga Club in Naga history he stated that , Naga Club not only protected our proud Naga identity but also planted the growth of organized movements, which is today known as the longest running political conflict in South and South East Asia as Nagas unwaveringly fight in their search for an honourable and peaceful political solution from neo-colonial states like India and Burma.
