Colorful We

                                                                     Colorful Nagas.!

Weaving and handicraft is our great custom since..Inception that we were half-clad. we have different clothes, a shawl to wear on different occasions, and also a special type of shawl to be worn by the village chief or the royal family.
We did careful handicraft work and artistic embroideries all over the shawls where we could easily identify the status of the man (symbol of special status).

We Nagas have immense capability and skills which should be nurtured so that it does not disperse with time. The state government or the concerned organization must take steps to motivate such intelligent people and bring their capabilities into the limelight.

Well, known Historian, Dr. Hutton wrote: "All Naga Tribes have a most remarkable appreciation of the effective and picturesque in dress, and their use of color is usually in extraordinary good taste and particularly well adapted to the surroundings in which it is displayed. the designs of their clothes are conspicuous for the right use of brilliant colors, while their ornaments of black and white hornbill feathers, cowries, ivory, and scarlet hair seem peculiarly well fitted to the deep green or bluish background usually afforded by the well-weeded hills which are their home "

Integration is a must

INTEGRATION IS A MUST TODAY OR TOMORROW.!

The seven (7) Northeast state of India (eastern Asia), was never part of India. no Indian ruler in known history could rule this place. more than 200 ethnic groups or tribes living here, among them Nagas are the first nation that on 14th august 1947 openly declared their independence out of the Indian domain.

India must understand that struggling more than 60 plus years for independence Nagalim was not kidding. The heroic struggle of the Nagas resistance enjoys popular support from the world. It indicates that India will not be able to crush the zeal for freedom of the Naga People. 

From Gandhi to notorious Nehru to Modi through their fake commitments, agreements, truces, ceasefire…etc repeatedly deceived the Nagas. It would only block our struggle temporarily, not permanently. India has been applied all their notorious evil techniques, except nuclear bomb, to crush the Nagas but failed. This means it unveils the fact that India will have to leave Nagalim today or tomorrow.

To integrate of Nagas Inhabited areas, India tries to set a thief to catch a thief. Our leaders should comprehend Indian game plan and also the state of Manipur, Assam, Arunachal should also stand against their common foes (Indian), knowing the historical background setting aside their petty interest if they stick the peace, development in the region. They should narrow down their differences including territorial disputes as Nagas didn’t demand other lands.

Nagas should not trust the Indian leadership and bureaucrats, they made so many commitments, signed on many agreements and accords, held so many dialogues, observed hundred of the ceasefire but all those bring fail to bring any changes. All these are tools of bluffing the people of the Nagas.
Let the international community wait and see how the honeymoon of dialogue & ceasefire of Indo-Naga peace ends.!

Historical evidence says, Indian leaders in their words are very generous but they are equally dishonest in deeds and practices.

#His Short Messages -
*Sowing the seeds of Naga political aspiration has to walk a long way ahead. each and every one of us are lucky indeed, for God is merciful. I have the good fortune to be of service to the Naga Nation for a cause, in being just that of myself..a humble Naga Army, to unlock the doors of political struggle in the promise of God.

*Naga Nation has a dream, as every Nation has a future. A nation or a people without a struggle does not require to exist among Nations. No one can remain handicap on the subject of building a strong Nation. For without a struggle, every child within the womb of a mother shall be born and become a people without a motherland. the action of today shall become the destiny tomorrow.

* Without sacrifice our struggle shall only be more of a hindrance, from within, than fruitful, while facing the challenges against the multidimensional obstacles. let's take it to the Lord in prayer, to open the gate of sovereignty, for a future to greater victory.

*He strongly propounds No integration no solution.
