DIMAPUR, JAN 11 (NPN): Rising People’s Party (RPP) termed the “continued silence” of BJP, along with NDPP and NPF, over Union home minister Amit Shah’s “condemnable” statement in Parliament on Oting killings as deafening.
RPP president Joel Naga and general secretary Amai Chingkhu, pointed out that BJP was yet to public correct, let alone question or condemn Shah’s “fabricated” statement in the Lok Sabha regarding the killing of 14 innocent Nagas (On December 4 and 5).
RPP pointed out that the deafening silence of the state BJP, its Mahila Morcha and Yuva Morcha, was in sharp contrast to their recent uproar against the Punjab government for the security lapse when Prime Minister Narendra Modi was left stranded at Ferozepur in Punjab for 15 minutes.
RPP pointed out that the helter-skelter scenes of Nagaland BJP and their leaders while trying to outdo each other in condemning the Charanjit Singh Channi government on Twitter, Facebook and other social media platforms was perhaps part of their job.
RPP however said that what was “un-digestible for Naga public” was that none from the same party dared question their high command when Amit Shah lied to Parliament.
RPP said such double standard of BJP had hurt the sentiments of every patriotic Naga and angered all right-thinking citizens. They said that perhaps BJP thinks that “15 minutes is more important than 15 lives” which seemed to be on track. “Sycophancy and nautanki have been part and parcel of Indian politics, but Nagas in BJP seem to have taken it to another level,” RPP stated.
