The significance of this meeting lies in its inclusive approach, with a wide array of stakeholders invited to participate. Among the distinguished invitees are:

 Members of ENLU (Eastern Nagaland Legislators’ Union), including Smti S. Phangnon Konyak, Hon’ble MP, Rajya Sabha, and former parliamentarians.

Former Presidents of ENPO and representatives from tribal organizations, frontal organizations, and federating units.

 ENPO advisors, executive secretaries, and representatives from former ENGOA, ENWO and ENSF administrations.

 Earlier on March 19, The Eastern Nagaland People’s Organization (ENPO) and its frontal organizations resolved to suspend the restrictions of the ‘Public Emergency’ in Eastern Nagaland region. This decision was made during a joint coordination meeting held at Tuensang Headquarter to address the non-settlement for the creation of Frontier Nagaland Territory by the Government of India, despite assurances from the Union Home Minister on December 7, 2023.

 In a statement, ENPO informed that the meeting passed three resolutions on the matter:

  The House unanimously resolved to uphold the February 23, 2024, Chenmoho village resolution “not to participate in any central and state election and all citizens of Eastern Nagaland shall refrain from casting votes” in protest against the failure of the Government of India. ENPO was also endorsed to devise strategies for the successful implementation of this Public Resolution.

 ENPO will write a letter to the Ministry of Home Affairs, Government of India, not to entertain any write-up/suggestions regarding Frontier Nagaland Territory other than those from ENPO.

 The House endorsed ENPO to convene another Public Meeting along with all 20 ENLU members within a week’s time at Tuensang HQ in consultation with ENLU.

Lastly, the House resolved to temporarily suspend all forms of ongoing restrictions under the Eastern Nagaland Public Emergency effective from March 21, 2024. However, the ‘Public Emergency’ will continue to be in force until further notice.
