A political solution to the Naga issue has to be achieved within a year because Nagaland needs permanent peace for development and progress, outgoing governor P B Acharya has said.
"And for this, we have Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who has the will and guts to resolve the issue," Acharya said while addressing a farewell programme, organised by the state government, on Thursday.
Noting that Nagaland is rich but Nagas are economically weak, he said, "We also need to march along with other states towards development and progress."
