Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday blamed Prime Minister Narendra Modi's"unilateral"decisions for the situation prevailing in Nagaland vis-a-vis Assembly elections as several civil society groups and political parties have sought deferment of the February 27 polls.
He said the Prime Minister did not take into confidence various stakeholders when the Naga Framework Agreement was signed between separatist National Socialist Council of Nagalim Isak Muivah (NSCN-IM) and the central government in 2015."Nobody has understood what the Prime Minister had signed, (or) whether he had signed. This is his style.
This (Naga accord) is similar to (November 8, 2016) demonetisation and implementation of Goods and Services Tax at midnight,"Gandhi told journalists.
"Modi called up then Congress President Sonia Gandhi one evening and told her we have solved the Naga problem and signed an accord. Soniaji called me and told what Modi conveyed to her. She told me to check with the then Congress Chief Ministers of Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, and Manipur to find if they were aware of the accord.
