Rengma Hoho demands Nagaland Govt. to evict all ANLA camps
A press note issued by K Kath Rengma, President and Azuto Rengma vice-president of Rengma Hoho of Dimapur said "The minds of the innocent and simple minded Adivasis living in our land should not be allowed to be poisoned with Maoists ideology which believes in violence to overthrow democratically elected Governments and its replacement with authoritarian one party rule".
The press note made it known as to what it described as "an indisputable fact" that the area where the Maoists training camps were being set up falls under the land of the Rengma Nagas since "it lies near the bank of Rengma River which is within Rengma Reserved Forest".
Pointing out that the Rengma Reserved Forest was created within Rengma Hills on 13th April 1887 and covering an area of 34,400 acres, the press note made it clear that the Rengma Nagas are the true owners of the land where "Maoists (ANLA) has set up their training camps in the midst of Adivasis who are immigrants in our land".
Stating that it was not possible for "anarchist ideology to find sympathy among the Nagas, the press note demanded that the Nagaland Government evict "these unwelcome elements from our midst for the sake of peace and good community relations".
Four legislators representing Wokha district, along with the district administrations and police, have busted a training base of ANLA "deep inside Kyong (Lotha) traditional land." The four legislators inspected two reported training camps of the ANLA in Jandalashung village 'jurisdiction.' There was clear signs of ANLA's recent activities in the second camp, including fresh footprints and recovery of around 200 wooden toy guns used during military drills, booby traps and "obstruction clearing" contrivances.
