Eastern Naga Students’ Federation (ENSF) opposes SECC 2011

Eastern Naga Students’ Federation (ENSF) Wednesday opposed the Socio-economic & caste census (SECC) 2011, scheduled to begin from January 16. The decision was based on a resolution adopted by ENSF federal assembly at Tuensang last year. 

A letter addressed to the DCs of Tuensang, Mon, Kiphire and Longjang and signed by ENSF president Hawang T. Wangsha and general secretary Changsang Soted stated that federation was “duty bound” to oppose the SECC as the nature of the drive was “unknown and vague”. 

Asserting that ENSF would not let the people become “scapegoat in the wrong policies of the state government”, they said decision was taken at its federal assembly held at Tuensang in 2011. The resolution of the assembly directed all its units - (USSC/KSU/CCSU/PSC/KSU/YAA) “not to corporate” in SECC exercise. It stated that state government could not “disseminate” necessary information and the “motive/objective” behind such a drive by the authorities.
