Nagaland Governor RN Ravi To Meet NSCN-IM Delegation In New Delhi Today To Break The Stalemate In Peace Negotiations

Dedicated to sign the final agreement on Naga peace deal by 31 October and to put an end to 22-year of prolonged negotiations, the Union Government's interlocutor and Nagaland's Governor RN Ravi is set to conduct another meeting with a delegation of the National Socialist Council of Nagaland Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM) today (28 October) in New Delhi, reports Times of India.

The meeting to be held today will be held to iron out the contentious issues including the demand of a separate flag and constitution for Nagas, which the Government of India has particularly refused to agree to.

It should be noted though that apart from the NSCN-IM, the other block of negotiators identified as the Naga National Political Groups (NNPGs) have already announced that they have resolved all the issues with the government of India and are ready to sign the agreement with the Centre anytime.

The last meeting between Ravi and NSCN (I-M) on 24 October to build a consensus on the two demands remained inconclusive, but both agreed to meet for a second time, keeping hopes alive for a smooth conclusion of the peace dialogue.
