Sat Nov 09 12:40:00 UTC 2024: ## NSCN-IM Threatens to Resume Armed Struggle in Nagaland

**New Delhi, November 9, 2024:** The Isak-Muivah faction of the National Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN-IM) has issued a stark warning, threatening to resume violent armed resistance against India if their demands for a separate flag and constitution are not met. This comes after the group signed a framework agreement with the Indian government in 2015, in the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The NSCN-IM insists on third-party intervention to address their demands, raising concerns over the future of peace talks in the region.

Meanwhile, the Supreme Court has upheld Aligarh Muslim University’s right to seek minority status, a decision welcomed by the university’s Vice-Chancellor. In Jammu and Kashmir, Chief Minister Omar Abdullah expressed satisfaction over the Assembly’s resolution to restore the region’s special status, emphasizing the importance of peaceful partnership.

Prime Minister Modi, however, maintained his stance against the restoration of Article 370, accusing the Congress-led INDIA bloc of attempting to undermine the Constitution.

Other notable developments include:

* The Lokpal seeking an explanation from the head of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) regarding conflict of interest allegations.
* The Supreme Court ordering a Kuki organization to produce audio tapes to substantiate their claims against Manipur Chief Minister N. Biren Singh in connection with the state’s recent violence.
* The successful pilot run of the Centralised Pension Payments System (CPPS) under the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO).
