JD(S) to field candidates for Nagaland Assembly polls

Special Correspondent

Guwahati: The Janata Dal (Secular) has decided to field its own candidates for the Assembly polls in Nagaland due in February next year. It planned to explore electoral understanding with other parties barring the Congress and the BJP, JD(S) secretary general K. Danish Ali told reporters in Dimapur on Thursday.

Inaugurating an office of the party state unit, he said the party would give final shape to its poll strategy in November when party chief and the former Prime Minister, Deve Gowda, was scheduled to visit Nagaland.

He appointed the former Nagaland Minister, Tokeheho Sema, as the chairman of the State parliamentary board of the party. To a question on the ongoing Naga peace process, he said that it was Mr. Gowda, who as the then Prime Minister, had initiated the peace process.
