Guwahati: The Isak-Muivah faction of National Socialist Council of Nagalim (NSCN-IM) has declared that government and NSCN (IM) have mutually agreed to go for final touch on the agreed competencies for conclusion.
The "declaration" of the NSCN (IM) said, "Now therefore, when the Government of India is prepared to make the final agreement with the NSCN on the basis of the Framework Agreement, all Nagas should also be equally prepared".
