The Naga organisations, including Eastern Nagaland People's Organisation, All Naga Students' Association, and the United Naga Council, are also strongly opposing the AFSPA and demanding repeal of the "draconian law".The Chief Minister also said that to ensure good governance in an effective manner, the state Government created four new districts Tseminyu, Niuland, Chumoukedima and Shamator in December and January.As part of the Community Outreach Programme, a mobile application "Call Your Cop" was launched by the state police and that would allow citizens to get in touch with police personnel on duty in an easier manner, he said.Rio said that as part of the Japan International Cooperation Agency-assisted Nagaland Forest Management Project, the Department of Environment, Forest and Climate Change has covered 91 villages across the state and would further cover 94 more villages.The Chief Minister said that the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs is in the process of launching an Externally Aided Programme through Asian Development Bank, under which the Department of Urban Development shall be taking up various infrastructure works in the district headquarters.He also said that the Tourism Department, in collaboration with the Centre, organised the 9th edition of International Tourism Mart with nearly 200 participants including from the neighbouring countries of Myanmar, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, and Brunei.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
