DIMAPUR, OCT 11 (NPN): Tzurangkong Senso Senden (TSS) and Japukong Senso Senden (JSS) have opposed the ultimatum issued by the Civil Society Organisation (CSO), Mangkolemba, on October 3, demanding the resignation of minister Temjen Imna Along over the construction of the Multipurpose Hall in Mokokchung.
TSS: Tzurangkong Senso Senden (TSS) president Moa Kichu and general secretary Temjenwapang said the demand was neither an appropriate course of action nor directly relevant to addressing concerns surrounding the construction of the hall. It maintained that issues concerning public infrastructure and community welfare should be resolved through constructive dialogue and suggestions rather than ultimatums.
The Senden said the electorates of 30th Alongtaki Assembly Constituency had elected Along for consecutive terms, expressing faith in his ability to bring prosperity and development to the area. It added that the trust and support of citizens and civil society organisations in the constituency continued.
The Senden also questioned the propriety of voters outside the 30th Alongtaki A/C issuing ultimatums demanding the minister’s resignation, describing such demands without lawful basis as potentially driven by political considerations and personal interests.
Stressing that lasting solutions could be achieved only through cooperation and collective responsibility, the Senden appealed to all concerned to rise above political considerations and personal interests and work together in a spirit of unity and understanding.
It reiterated its confidence in the minister’s leadership and vision and called for a peaceful and responsible approach to resolving the matter.
JSS: In a press note, Japukong Senso Senden (JSS) president Imdongdangba and general secretary Alemba Longchar said its meeting on October 7 resolved to condemn and oppose the ultimatum, terming it improper and unwarranted in the absence of any lawful basis.
The Senden said matters concerning public infrastructure and community welfare should be addressed through constructive dialogue and practical suggestions rather than ultimatums. It maintained that such demands neither served the public interest nor contributed to finding practical, long-term solutions to existing challenges.
JSS said it remained open to all stakeholders coming forward with an open mind and genuine commitment to finding a viable solution in the larger interest of the community. It expressed the belief that lasting solutions could be achieved through cooperation and collective wisdom.
