Dimapur, Feb. 15: The Nagaland Tribes Action Committee (NTAC) and the Joint Coordination Committee (JCC) have once again stated that they have nothing to do with any politician be it the MPs or any political parties. The two organisations issued a press release advising the ‘NPF functionaries to keep their wild imaginations and suspicions’ to themselves. “The JCC was formed to pursue the possibility of postponement of the ULB elections since the tribal bodies were opposed to go ahead with the existing Nagaland Municipal Act, 2001 as it was found to be detrimental to our social and customary practices.” Then on February 1 last, the two organisations have stated, the bodies of two slain youths were brought to Kohima where NTAC was formed to oversee the funeral, to control any untoward incidents and furtherance of the demand for justice. “The demand of JCC and NTAC for chief minister, TR Zeliang’s resignation is not negotiable after what had happened and we are determined to go to any extend till our demand is met. This is for general information that the demand for stepping down of chief minister, TR Zeliang has nothing to do with the conflicting news spread by NPF party functionaries and other vested interest groups and individuals. “The JCC and NTAC are formed and supported by the apex tribal bodies of the state who are espousing the voice of the people and pursuing the demand for justice be met as early as possible.”
