Of late, the local residents have sighted some signboards golden jubilee celebrations of some churches and other establishments.
“We are forced to take permission from Naga people also for construction of house and some others,” rued a local resident adding that the Nagas have been continuing their developmental activities Of late, a Nagaland police battalion office has also been set up in the A sector and that too reportedly, in full view of the Assam police and CRPF personnels on July 12. There are some allegations of extortion by Naga people on the local residents but the Assam government is remaining silent.
The local people have blamed it all on the Assam government for remaining silent saying,”the Nagas have managed to set up subdivision due to Assam government’s indifference.
