They affirmed the state BJP has always remained firm in its commitment for an early solution to the issue and continues to remain focused on its stand without any compromise. “It would be a grave mistake to think otherwise by anyone,” they added.
“We all feel the aspirations of the people and final solution is of supreme priority and BJP Nagaland is ever ready to walk the extra mile to contribute in ushering a lasting solution that would ultimately take us to the path of permanent peace, faster development and a brighter future to our people,” the BJP MLAs said.
