It also alleged that NNPGs had done any hard negotiation with R.N.Ravi other than being “made to listen attentively on the so-called ‘economic package’ in waiting in the name of Naga political solution.

NSCN-IM accused GoI of trying to nullify the ‘framework agreement’ by twisting and backtracking on their words and commitments, adds Eastern Mirror on October 14. It stated that “It is surprising to see that the Government of India is trying to hijack the outcome of the talks by using a section of people who are not mandated and do not represent the Naga people and the Naga national issue. It should be understood that any proposed solution that betrays the Naga national issue will be but repetition of the past mistakes. We are sure it will be a great loss for both the two peoples if we miss this finest opportunity”.

The stalemate between the Government of India (GoI) and the National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM) over the latter’s insistence on a separate flag and constitution continues, reports Morung Express on October 15. The GoI’s Interlocutor for the Indo-Naga political negotiations RN Ravi, who is also Governor of Nagaland state, sat with the NSCN (IM) in New Delhi on October 14 in the second formal meeting since the talks resumed after a two-month break. According to a senior NSCN-IM leader the October 14 dialogue lasted around 3-4 hours and was relatively cordial. “There were venting of frustrations and arguments but all in all it was a cordial meeting unlike the previous ones”. According to him, India and the Nagas mutually agreed on a “Framework,” which includes the coexistence of two sovereign entities. While stating that the GoI’s stand points to deferring the issue of flag and constitution to a later date after coming to a final settlement, he added, “We will not compromise on the demand for a separate Naga flag and constitution.”

The committee pointed out that the Nagas had killed each other in the name of freedom and faced much hardships, including unlimited taxation and extortion. With the deadlock continuing between the Centre and the NSCN-IM over the latter’s insistence on a separate Naga flag and constitution, the committee suggested that the two issues can be pursued post solution. It said these two issues were raised only in the 21st year of negotiations, while the Centre is firm that these are issues which Nagas can pursue post solution.

Highly placed sources in the Government of India (GoI) told The Assam Tribune on October 18 that the Government has already made its stand “very clear” to all the Naga rebel groups and they would have to take a decision whether to sign a peace agreement or not by October 31. According to sources, “Formalities for signing an agreement may take some time, but it is clear that there will be no more talk after October 31. Moreover, the government will not sign separate agreements with different groups and there will be only one agreement”. Sources said that the GoI has accepted the unique history of Naga people and more powers would be given to the State, while the number of seats in Nagaland Assembly would be increased. An Upper House would be created in Nagaland, while a financial package would be given to the State. One Autonomous Council each would be created in the States of Manipur and Arunachal Pradesh and a pan-Naga cultural body would be formed. There will be a special package for the rehabilitation of the cadres of the rebel groups. However, there will be no reorganisation of boundaries of any State.

RN Ravi on October 18 stated that public consultation was a direct offshoot of the “unfortunate attitude” of some National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM) NSCN-IM leaders, reports Eastern Mirror. The consultation meeting in Kohima was attended by the apex leadership of all the 14 Naga tribes of Nagaland, all the minority non-Naga tribes of Nagaland, Nagaland Gaon Burah (GB) Federation, Nagaland Tribes Council, church leaders and civil society organisations. KT Vilie, the coordinator of the forum representing 14 Naga tribes of Nagaland, said that the GoI ‘might take some action by the end of this month. A statement by RN Ravi said that “The framework agreement with NSCN (IM) and the Agreed Position with the WC of NNPGs were extensively shared with the leaders, pertinent issues discussed, and doubts in competencies clarified, adds Eastern Mirror. Political maturity and wisdom of the Naga leaders who expressed their overwhelming support in favour of a settlement without any further delay is deeply appreciated”. RN Ravi said that NSCN (IM) has adopted a procrastinating attitude ‘to delay the settlement, raising the contentious symbolic issues of separate Naga national flag and constitution.’ He accused the Naga group of ‘mischievously dragging in the framework agreement’ and ascribing imaginary content to it. He in a statement said that “Some NSCN (I-M) leaders through various media platforms are misleading the people with absurd assumptions and presumptions over what they have already agreed with the government of India”. The statement said that “Primary stakeholders—tribal and civil society organisations from Nagaland, Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh and Assam were involved in the peace process and made valuable contributions through regular consultations and insightful inputs, adds Eastern Mirror. The church leaders with their constant prayers and goodwill have immensely contributed to the cause of enduring peace.” Th public statement also said that “It is a matter of great satisfaction that agreements with NSCN (IM) on August 3, 2015 and with seven Naga armed groups under the banner of Working Committee (WC) of Naga National Political Groups (NNPGs) on November 17, 2017 on the political parameters of the settlement were signed. A mutually agreed draft comprehensive settlement, including all the substantive issues and competencies, is ready for inking the final agreement.” An unidentified Church leader stated that GoI was clear on its stand that the issue should not be prolonged any further. According to the leader, few civil societies were ‘impatient’ but there were other who maintained that ‘patience must be exercise to avoid bloodshed’.

The Government of India is creating a fear psychosis in Nagalim by deploying thousands of armed forces personnel”. He also added that “The issue will remain alive and kicking. The Nagas are always for a negotiated settlement based on the doctrine of mutual consent and recognition of rights. I believe the present Indian leadership will not commit the mistake of their past leaders”. He also added that “The Nagas will associate with India in many fields as two entities. We understand that the spirit of living together, cooperation and coordination builds the world whereas the spirit of opposition and confrontation destroys it”.

On October 23 various civil society organisations and students’ unions have expressed their disappointment over the non-inclusion of their organisations in the political talks, reports North East Today. Naga Students’ Federation (NSF) has stated that by excluding them from the exercise, the Government of India is depriving the Naga students and youths of the opportunity to express their aspirations and desires from the impending solution to the protracted Indo-Naga political issue. NSF stated that “It is an undeniable fact that the NSF is the oldest pan Naga civil society organisation formed to represent the voice of the Naga people. But in the recent series of consultative meets, the federation has been left out as an uninvited guest”. NSF also added that RN Ravi in his dual role as the interlocutor as well as the Governor of Nagaland was viewed with scepticism by the Naga people. NSF stated that “However, the federation refrained from making our disagreement public hoping that he would discharge his dual duty with the highest degree of integrity which, to our utter dismay, was not to be”.

Arunachal Pradesh, Assam and Manipur are on edge with the “deadline” for settling the Naga political issue drawing near, reports The Sangai Express on October 25. The Governments and civil society organisations in Arunachal Pradesh, Assam and Manipur have made it clear that they would not compromise on their territorial integrity. Though the contents of the Framework Agreement signed with NSCN-IM in August 2015 are not known, Nagaland’s neighbours have been wary of the outfit’s demand for ‘nagalim’ or ‘greater Nagaland’. This would entail redrawing of boundaries to bring all Naga-inhabited areas in the North East under one administrative umbrella. There have been indications that the NSCN-IM has dropped this demand, but its insistence on a separate “Naga National flag” and “Naga Yezabo (Constitution)” has raised fears about a Nagalim-like arrangement in some form or the other. The map of Nagalim, released by NSCN-IM a few years ago, spreads over 1,03,473 square kilometeres beyond the 16,527 square kilometre area of Nagaland. It includes the Anjaw, Changlang, Lohit, Longding, Namsai and Tirap Districts of Arunachal Pradesh; Dima Hasao and Karbi Anglong Districts and parts of Dibrugarh, Golaghat, Jorhat, Sivasagar and Tinsukia Districts in Assam; and Chandel, Kamjong, Kangpokpi, Senapati, Tamenglong, Tengnoupal and Ukhrul Districts of Manipur.

Nagaland Postreports that 17 National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM) leaders including former ‘kilo kilonser’ Hukavi Yeputhomi joined Naga National Political Group (NNPG) on October 25 in New Delhi. In a declaration Hukavi Yeputhomi stated that he along with his co-workers have decided to join the WC,NNPG on their own volition and with deep conviction at the “decisive hour for the Naga people” when an agreement was to have been inked with the government of India “without compromising on our history and identity’. Hukavi said though he was at the negotiating table till October 24, 2019, he realised that NSCN-IM) chief negotiator would “remain insensitive to our people’s plea for honourable and acceptable solution.” Hukavi said his decision was based on “our people’s desire for a peaceful co-existence between Nagaland and India.” Hukavi was received into NNPG by Neokpao Konyak and Kitovi Zhimomi. An NSCN-IM senior leader stated that Hukavi has defected to “one of the groups”. However, the leader also claimed that Hukavi was not a permanent member of NSCN-IM negotiation team. However, other sources stated that Hukavi was part of the 15-member NSCN (I-M) delegation, that held the crucial October 24 meeting in New Delhi. With just couple of days before the expiry of the three-month deadline, speculation is rife on whether the Government of India and NSCN (I-M) would be able to settle the Naga flag and constitution demand in the next meeting, tentatively, scheduled to be held on October 28 or October 29.

According to a source “The Centre is likely to offer a middle path to the NSCN-IM. If everything goes fine, there will be a joint sitting between Ravi and the two other groups on October 29 itself to set the ground for the final agreement by this”. According to Nagaland Post, sources expressed hope that the meeting would be “significant as both the parties are keen to solve the issue at the earliest”. Depending on the outcome of October 28 and October 29 crucial meetings, Ravi is likely to convene a joint meeting with both the negotiating parties, NSCN-IM and Naga National Political Groups NNPGs where he is expected to work out modalities for all negotiating parties to jointly sign the final agreement.

East Mojo reports that during the meeting in New Delhi with National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM) on October 28, Government of India (GoI) informed the participants that deadline of October 31, 2019 to conclude the negotiations with all Naga groups has been withdrawn. Unidentified sources in Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) stated that “The Centre is unlikely to insist on October 31, 2019 as the deadline to sign the Naga peace talks.” Sources also added that “On October 31, 2019, two Union Territories (UTs) — Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh — are coming up. Amid increasing intervention from Pakistan, the Centre doesn’t want to take risk in law-and-order problem in other parts of the country, especially in the Northeast by unnecessarily sticking to a deadline. Since the GoI has already spent 22 long years, there is no harm in waiting for some more months to sign the Naga peace talks,” the sources said, adding: “Centre doesn’t want an unnecessary delay in inking the Naga peace process, but it doesn’t want to face any problem in the country, at least in the next 72 or 96 hours.”

On October 31 the deadlock of Naga peace talks was broken with National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM) agreeing to sign deal with Government of India (GoI), reports Times of India. According to an official, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to make ‘final declaration’ during his scheduled visit to Nagaland in December 2019. The source also added that final declaration will be made shortly after revisiting the agreed points. NSCN-IM stated that the talks concluded “in line with the frame work agreement”. An NSCN-IM leader also added that “no one wants any more bloodshed in Nagaland. We have agreed to sign the agreement”. According to a Government source,” The issue of a separate constitution for the Nagas and territorial integration of Naga-inhabited areas outside the boundaries of Nagaland require further discussion to work out the modalities to address them through democratic and political processes”. Nagaland Post adds that according to an unidentified NSCN-IM leader who was part of the negotiations, during October 31 stated that both sides “finalised all contentious issues” and agreed to pursue it through “peaceful political process”. He also however added that “We still have to give competencies the final touch for final solution.” Refuting speculations that GoI and NSCN (I-M) have signed the final agreement, sources clarified that the two negotiating parties have only come to an understanding on the contentious issues of flag and constitution. Sources maintained that no agreement has been signed”. The Hindu adds that RN Ravi the interlocutor and Nagaland Governor stated on October 31 that “the accord has not been finalised yet. Matters are under discussion. NSCN-IM has come on board.” A Senior Government official stated that agreement with all groups including NSCN-IM will be signed soon. Alezo Venuh of Naga National Political Group (NNPG) who was involved in peace talks stated that ““We do not know the details of the agreement but we have agreed in principle to join the peace process and all issues have been worked on. The agreement can be signed any time soon.” Northeast Today adds that GoI has conditionally agreed on demand for Naga flag. The understanding between the GoI and NSCN-IM was reached during the 2nd meeting of October 31. However, demand for a separate constitution is still undecided and the government sources informed that the matter will be taken up through peaceful political process at the shortest time possible. East Mojo reports that according to sources Nagas can use their ‘flag’ in pan-Naga Hohos, sports and special events of the Nagas. Official use of the flag at all Government functions, office premises, buildings will be approved officially later during the political process. East Mojo further adds that Union Home Minister Amit Shah has stated that the talks will “conclude” only once the views and inputs of Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh and Assam, which are proposed to be a part of NSCN-IM’s proposed ‘Greater Nagaland’ -- are taken into account. Meanwhile Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Pema Khandu stated that said “During my telephonic conversation with Home Minister Amit Shahji today, I was assured that the views and inputs from states like Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh and Assam will be taken into consideration. Only then will the Naga talks will be concluded”. Times of India adds that Union Minister of Home Affairs (UMHA) has issued a statement saying that “It has come to the notice of govt that lots of rumours & misinformation are being spread... that a final Naga settlement has been arrived at & will be announced soon. It is creating anxiety & concern in some parts of the country. It is clarified that before any settlement is arrived at with the Naga groups, all stakeholders, including states of Assam, Manipur & Arunachal Pradesh, will be consulted & their concerns will be taken into consideration. No credence needs to be given to such incorrect info.”
