Naga militants, govt to meet in Atlanta on July 28

All the Nagaland extremist groups will meet in Atlanta on July 28 to find a solution to the insurgency which has been plaguing the state for nearly five decades.

Chief Minister S C Jamir said the Atlanta meeting would bring the heads of the Federal Group, the National Socialist Council of Nagaland (K) and the NSCN (Issac-Muivah) to a round table to interact among themselves. This would provide the state government representatives an opportunity to assess the militants' feelings, he said.

Jamir said efforts would also be made to identify areas to seek wider autonomy for the state within the Constitution.

The Atlanta meet, sponsored by the Baptist Group of America, would be attended by both the state MPs, Imachalemba Ao and Vizol, besides Jamir.
