The Centre extended the ceasefire agreement with three Naga insurgent groups for one more year, informed the Ministry of Home Affairs on Wednesday.
In a press release, the Ministry said that Ceasefire Agreements are in operation between the Government of India and the National Socialist Council of Nagaland-NK (NSCN-NK), National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Reformation (NSCN/R) and National Socialist Council of Nagaland K-Khango (NSCN K-Khango). "It was decided to extend the Ceasefire Agreements for a further period of one year with effect from April 28, 2022, to April 27, 2023, with NSCN-NK and NSCN-R and from April 18, 2022, to April 17, 2023, with NSCN K-Khango.
