Such actions, even after an appeal for restraint and peaceful resolution, are highly condemnable. irresponsible, and unacceptable stated the release

"In view of this continued disturbance, disregard for public welfare, and violation of basic human rights, the Naga People's Organisation (NPO) has resolved to call for an immediate counter-bandh, effective immediately" ,NPO stated.
