The CNSC reminded the Prime Minister that after his party�s landslide victory in the last general election, the Government of India had assured resolve the issue soon.

�Nagas heaved a sigh of relief on hearing the news after a prolonged distrust and frustration under the Congress regime which has miserably failed to achieve any tangible progress due to lack of political will,� they stated in the memorandum.
