Nagaland sub-committee to study state demand

KOHIMA: The Nagaland government has constituted a cabinet sub-committee to study the report on the Eastern Naga People's Organisation's (ENPO) demand for creation of a separate state comprising four border districts of Nagaland.

The government had earlier constituted a committee, headed by a senior bureaucrat, to study the ENPO's demand and submit a report on the same at the earliest.

On receiving the committee's report, a recent cabinet meeting decided to set up the cabinet sub-committee to examine the panel's report and recommendations, officials said here today.
