In a significant decision aimed at maintaining a peaceful atmosphere, various NGOs, civil societies, wards and colonies leaders of Kohima Wednesday resolved not to allow armed cadres of any faction to reside in the colony/wards, as it posed potential threat to the peace and harmony of the citizens.
In this regard, respective ward/colony authorities would take appropriate decisions and issue directives to all the house owners not to allow any unidentified tenants to reside in their rent houses including government quarters.
This was resolved in a joint meeting on law and order organized by the state home department and attended by chief minister Neiphiu Rio, home minister Imkong L. Imchen, urban development minister Dr. Shurhozielie, MLA & chairman NKVIB, Dr. Nicky Kire, government officials, NGOs, members of the Kohima Municipal Council, leaders from all the wards and colonies, GBs, DBs besides representatives from the district administration and home department, held at Zonal Council Hall.
The meeting also resolved that if any of any armed cadre/miscreant/anti-social element threatened the ward/colony, the ward/colony authorities, necessary action would be taken with the support of district administration and police.
To maintain coordination, it was further resolved that the district administration and police would be in constant touch with the ward/colony for any untoward incident and that all the DBs and GBs would effectively be kept informed of anything happening in any ward/colony.
To realize this, the meeting decided to convene a meeting of ward/colony chairman and Kohima Municipal Council with deputy commissioner at least once in a month.
The meeting urged the state government to respond to any given situation pertaining to containing law and order and to extend all possible help and assistance.
The Kohima Municipal Council members were also urged to ensure that their respective wards were effectively implementing the resolutions. The Kohima Municipal Council members would collectively coordinate with Deputy Commissioner and SP Kohima for action.
Furthermore, the office of the Angami Public Organization would extend all possible help and support to any ward/colony in respect of maintaining law and order situation in Kohima town.
