India: Expedite Naga peace talks: NPF

Kohima, Oct 10 (PTI) The opposition Naga Peoples Front (NPF) has appealed to Naga national workers and the Centre to expedite the Naga peace talks and bring it to a logical conclusion.

The appeal was made as part of the resolution of the NPFs 3rd Central Executive Council (CEC) meeting at Kohima on Tuesday.

The NPF also urged Naga national groups who have not joined the peace process to reconsider their decisions in the interest of the Naga people.

Reiterating the partys stand on integration of all contiguous Naga areas, the NPF CEC appealed to neighbouring states and communities to extend their cooperation in finding solution to the protracted Naga political issue.

The CEC resolved to uphold the leadership of Shurohozelie Liezietsu as party president and T R Zeliang as leader of NPF Legislature Party.

It urged the People's Democratic Alliance (PDA) government led by Neiphiu Rio to stop blaming the weather and repair the roads in the state.
