KOHIMA, March 23 � Nagaland Governor Nikhil Kumar has reiterated in unequivocal terms the State Government�s determination to find a just and honourable settlement to the long drawn Naga political problem.

Addressing the Nagaland Assembly on Tuesday, the Governor said the government has been playing the role of a constructive facilitator in the ongoing political dialogue between the Government of India and the NSCN.

Realising the importance of peaceful and conflict free environment, the government has accorded utmost priority to fulfill the developmental aspirations of the people of the State, Kumar stated.

He said various efforts taken by the government with the help of civil societies, churches and NGOs have yielded positive results in the form of reduction in the level of hostilities among the underground factions.

The State Level Strategy Group and District Level Co-ordination Committees have also been constituted to strengthen the ceasefire monitoring mechanism and to defuse situations, which are likely to jeopardise public tranquility and peace, the Governor said. He appreciated the Forum for Naga Reconciliation, civil societies, churches and NGOs for their contribution to the peace process.
