Zeliang shares award with people of Nagaland

Nagaland Chief Minister T R Zeliang today shared the 'Lifetime Achievement Award in Transformation' conferred on him during the 6th Global Leadership Award with the people of the state.
"I share the award with the people of Nagaland," Zeliang said while addressing a civic reception accorded to him on arrival at Dimapur Airport from Bali, Indonesia.
He received the award on April 23 at a programme organized by business magazine Leaders International and US-based NGO American Leadership Development Association.
Expressing his gratitude for selecting him for the award, the Chief Minister said he was amazed on his selection as Nagaland is a "very small state in a vast country like India".

Zeliang said the reasons behind his selection as explained to him by the organisers were for being the leader of trouble torn Nagaland state, for garnering 100 per cent vote during the confidence motion in the Assembly in February last year, and for establishing an "opposition less government" in the state, which is the first of its kind in a democratic country.
Leaders of various tribal organisations and civil societies felicitated the Chief Minister for the achievement.

President of Naga Hoho, Chuba Ozukum, said the international recognition received by the CM was a "laurel" for the entire Naga society.
Eastern Nagaland Peoples Organisation (ENPO) president Khoiwang Konyak expressed optimism that Zeliang would work more for the betterment of Naga society.

Ministers, Parliamentary Secretaries, Civil societies, NGO's and others attended the civic reception organized by ENPO.
