The Sagaing based National Socialist Council of Nagaland - Khaplang (NSCN-K) now led by Yung Aung has appealed to the National League for Democracy (NLD)-led government to follow the policies of Union Solidarity and Development Party (USDP) government and stop military operations against it, The Nagaland Post reported.

Accusing the Government of trying to suppress its popular freedom struggle and launching military operation against it on January 29 and May 15 this year in violation of cessation of hostilities agreement between USDP government and NSCN - K, NSCN-K commander Niki Sumi in a statement claimed that Nagas were enjoying peace and development when military-backed USDP was in power.

But the present government was trying to suppress its popular freedom struggle, he alleged.
