A 19-member Parliamentary Working Committee (PWC) on Naga political issue of Nagaland Assembly has been camping in New Delhi to seek the support of national political parties for early solution of the vexed problem.
The delegation, led by Chief Minister TR Zeliang and Speaker Chotisuh Sazo, called on BJP President Amit Shah and JD(U) President Sharad Yadav yesterday, a government statement said here last evening.
While Shah has given an assurance to meet their demands, Yadav expressed his party's support even for a constitutional amendment, if required, for a peaceful solution to the Naga political issue, it said.
The PWC delegation is expected to meet other national leaders for a consensus, it said.
