Nagaland: NSCN (IM) calls for 12-hour shutdowns to protest ‘non-fulfillment’ of 2015 Peace Accord

The NSCN (I-M) has called for a 12-hour shutdown in Nagaland from August 2 at midnight to protest against the "non-fulfillment" of the Peace Accord signed in 2015.

The NSCN (I-M) on Sunday gave a call for a 12-hour shutdown in all Naga-inhabited areas from August 2 at midnight to register a protest against what it termed as the Government of India’s “silence” on the Framework Agreement signed six years ago. The Isac-Muivah-led Nationalist Socialist Council of Nagalim or the NSCN (IM) has been holding negotiations with the central government since 1997 and the two sides signed a Framework Agreement in August 2015.
