The S.S.Khaplang led NSCN/GPRN sincerely acknowledges the unceasing encouragement from cross section of the Nagas, while on the other hand few section with vested or misguided interests views our stand as unrealistic and an impediment to Indo-Naga political solution.
Time and again the NSCN have categorically asserted our position that “Sovereignty” is the basis of the Naga struggle and no dialogue or political process could ever be contemplated without sovereignty being the sole basis.
Fickle minded people have for some time being theorizing the concept that GPRN’s abrogation of cease fire with India has deferred the prospective solutions between GOI and various Naga groups engaged in the talks.
It must however be assured that GPRN shall neither be a party to any of the group’s solutions nor shall we create any obstructions. It is purely the prerogative of the GOI and the negotiating groups to hatch out any settlement as may be agreed upon.
The NSCN/GPRN commitment to Naga Sovereign struggle should not be made a scapegoat for the elusive solution or in other words, the NSCN/GPRN cannot be blamed for their failure to arrive to a solution.
The only concern of the NSCN/GPRN is that the sacrifices of the thousands Nagas may not go in vain and that the spirit of the Naga martyrs may not haunt and taunt them as consequent to any solution they conceive.
