"2016 be a year charts out our dreams into a reality of long lasting peace in the land of Nagas," Zeliang said in his New Year message here last night.
Nagas should continue to maintain harmony and tranquillity among themselves and with neighbours while remembering that peace was essential for the state to progress and be on par with the rest of the world, he said.
The Chief Minister urged the people to be environmentally conscious and work towards keeping Nagaland Green by 2020.
