UNC for indefinite ban on central project works DIMAPUR, AUGUST 9 (MExN): The United Naga Council has called for an indefinite ban on all construction works of Central Projects such as the Trans-Asian Railway line and Power Grid line from the midnight of August 11. A press note from the UNC said that the protest is “against the lack of respect and seriousness in upholding the democratic process of dialogue initiated by the Government of India itself on the demand for an alternative arrangement outside the Government of Manipur and to urge the GoI for immediate intervention pending settlement of the Indo-Naga issue.” It added that a series of protest activities are being taken up till an intervention from the GoI is secured. The UNC appealed for the general public and all concerned to “respect the sentiments which have occasioned the protest activities and extend their cooperation and solidarity to ensure peaceful and non-violent observation of the same.” It added that that adequate time has been given with prior general information and therefore any violation will be at one’s own risk. The UNC further called upon all Naga tribe Hohos, Regional and Frontal organizations to take up appropriate measures in their respective jurisdictions for the effective observation of the total bandh, abstention and ban.
