Nagaland Chief Minister T R Zeliang today appealed to the Naga people to forgive and forget the past and work together for the common good of the people.
The Naga political issue has entered a new era with signing of the framework agreement between the Centre and NSCN (IM) on August 3, Zeliang said while speaking at a function marking the 50th anniversary of the formation of Nagaland Peace Centre here.
The situation now demands that "We sink all our petty differences, and forget and forgive the past bitterness and pains, and come together for our common good and our common goal," he said.
"We must remember that by remaining divided, Nagas will not achieve anything. But if we are united, we can take forward the Naga issue for a solution that is acceptable to all," the chief minister said.
Zeliang appealed to all Tribal bodies, NGOs, Churches, Civil Societies and common people to urge all Naga Political Groups to come together and talk with the Government of India to resolve the decades old Naga Political Problem.
