NPCC charges DAN of misuse of funds

Kohima, Nov 24 (UNI) Nagaland Pradesh Congress Committee (NPCC) has come down heavily against the ruling Democratic Alliance of Nagaland (DAN) accusing it of misuse of funds provided by the UPA government.

A press release of the party issued here today alleged of rampant corruption in the funds amounting to crores of rupees for Nagaland.

The release said, the DAN government misused the funds for their own benefits and continuing the usual habit of raising infamous slogans against the UPA government.

Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh maintains equilibrium in his dealings with all the states and sufficient funds were allocated to Nagaland Peoples Front led DAN government but it failed to work for the people as the funds were not reaching the grass root level.

Reacting to the allegation of the Nagaland unit of BJP that NPCC is stalling the flow of funds meant for the development of Nagaland, Paphino said that BJP, a partner of the DAN government is equally responsible for the misuse of the funds provided by generous UPA government at the Centre.

It is also diametrically opposite to the call of unity, reconciliation and solution to the Naga political problem, he said adding the party has approach of keeping some section of people close and alienating others thereby creating division within the family and stood as a sole impediment towards solution of the elusive Naga political problem.
