Naga leaders meet Chidambaram

By The Assam Tribune

KOHIMA, June 12 (PTI) - A delegation of Naga Students' Federation (NSF) met Union Home Minister P Chidambaram in New Delhi and requested him to direct Manipur to withdraw forces from Naga-inhabited areas.

The NSF delegation, led by its president Mutsikhoyo Yhobu, yesterday urged Chidambaram to issue necessary directives to the Manipur government to immediately withdraw the Manipur Armed Police personnel from the Naga-inhabited areas of the neighbouring state and revoke the arrest warrants issued against some Naga leaders.

While apprising the minister about the prevailing situation, the student leaders put the onus on the government of Manipur and the Centre to solve the problem.

Chidambaram asked them to lift the restriction of movement of Manipur registration vehicles as early as possible, federation leaders said, adding, the Home Minister assured the delegation that he was personally monitoring the situation and would do whatever was necessary to resolve the present crisis.
