If the strategy of the NSCN-IM does not deviate from its track, and the world community's heart is won, the United Nations (UN) will endorse the NSCN-IM move by deputing an official third party mediators for the Government of India and the NSCN-IM peace dialogue.
Yesterday, NSCN-IM chairman Isak Chisi Swu flew to the Taiwan capital of Taipei and put up the outfit's proposal before the Unrepresented Nations Peoples Organisation (UNPO) assembly.
According to a Dimapur based English newspaper, Isak Chisi Swu while addressing the UNPO General Assembly on Saturday demanded that a third party intervention endorsed by the United Nations through the initiation of the UNPO be undertaken.
Strongly putting across his point by using the general assembly as platform, the NSCN-IM chairman appealed to UNPO leaders to persuade the United Nations take up the case of the Nagas, according to the Dimapur daily.
"We trust that the UNPO will take all necessary steps in lobbying for our case in the United Nations and other international arenas.
We have been suppressed, our rights have been denied and our voices drowned long enough.
yet we see the present time as the most opportune one to seek the attention of international organizations to play a more active role in the Indo-Naga issue", said Isak Chisi Swu.
Meanwhile, fear psychosis still grips Nagaland's Zunheboto district even as the general public had forced both the warring NSCN-IM and the NSCN-K cadres to leave from their respective holds in the district.
Factional violence that had become daily routine affairs in the Sema tribe confined Zunheboto district had disgusted the people which prompted the public to drive the militants out of the area on Saturday.
