Eastern Nagaland Peoples’ Union, Zunheboto (ENPUZ) has decided to impose “ban” on the flow of “domestic helpers” in Zunheboto from six Eastern Naga tribes -- Chang, Khiamniungan, Konyak, Sangtam, Phom and Yimchunger. ENPUZ stated that the decision was taken as a “measure” in view of the “rising concern of abuse” received by the union including “suicide” in some case.
In a statement, ENPUZ president Yimso said that the union would conduct a two-day registration drive on March 9 and 10 at Sangtam Baptist Fellowship compound, Old Town near Government Higher Secondary School from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. for “present employees”. The registration fee per head would be Rs. 100, said ENPUZ. The union has asked “employers” to bring “in person and furnish details” of domestic helpers, failing which ENPUZ would take its own course of action. |

ENPO firm on Frontier Nagaland; calls for support
The Eastern Nagaland People’s Organization (ENPO) has said that the organization’s demand for a separate state is not against any political groups whether underground faction, civil or Naga political groups, tribes or leadership but a “movement” against “injustice” and should be given “support” and “solidarity.”
The ENPO’s president declared the statement during the ‘Reconciliation Meeting’ held yesterday, Wednesday in Dimapur. In his speech, president of the ENPO P Pongom Khiamniungan said that the demand should not be “misinterpreted or misconceived.”
The president stated – “Dear fellow Naga brethrens, I know many of you may not find it appropriate to what I have to say next – but however, it is only fair and honest in all humility to share with you for your support and blessings. That, the people of the ENPO had long resolved to demand a separate state called ‘frontier Nagaland’ which is purely a peaceful and a democratic movement against social, economic and political injustice, deprivation and suppression, and hence a movement for the sincere upliftment and progress of the fellow Eastern Nagas of the ENPO.”
The “movement” is not against any communities or tribes, civil organizations or the undergrounds, the ENPO asserted. “Therefore the ENPO appeals that the demand for statehood should not be misinterpreted or misconceived.
Rather, we seek your support and blessing in all humility in oneness and love for the fellow downtrodden Eastern Nagas of ENPO.”
The ENPO asserted further that it continues “to resolve to stand on the call and appeal for the reconciliation of all Naga political groups/factions for the immediate cessation of killings, bloodshed and all forms of violence amongst fellow Nagas.”
The organization said it would continue to support the efforts of “an honoured final political settlement if so desired by the Naga people based on the historical and political rights of the Nagas through a purposeful and meaningful reconciliation.”
The ENPO seeks “support” and “solidarity,” the ENPO president added.
