NSCN (IM) president Q Tuccu admitted on March 21 that the fate of the framework agreement hangs in the balance as the Indian government’s commitment “fluctuates wildly every now and then”.
“We have raised and made clear our stand before the Government of India on the issue of the Naga flag and the Constitution, which are indispensable and inalienable parts of the recognized sovereignty and unique history of the Nagas.
