Kohima: Eyeing the lone Lok Sabha seat ahead of the parliamentary polls, Nagaland’s Rising People’s Party (RPP) shared its aim to transform a “failed” and corrupted state.
In a statement, the RPP said that Nagaland continues to reel under the perpetual cycle of corruption and misgovernance. Saying that Nagaland has been labeled as a “failed state” and the “corruption capital of India”, RPP said that there is a resounding cry for change from the Naga people.
“The call for dedicated and passionate leaders to lead Nagaland into a new era of
peace and development has been the long aspirations of all the Nagas. Since its
inception, the Rising People’s Party had been expressing this aspiration of the Naga
People,” the party said.
In the previous state election, RPP said that many conscious Nagas felt that the time was right to bring about the desired change.
“However, it was not successful due to various inherent factors. The burning desire of the Naga People to see the real change in Nagaland is the driving force and the fuel for the Rising People’s Party,” the party said.
With the trust invested on them by the Naga People, the Rising People’s Party shared its plans to engage and participate meaningfully in the upcoming Lok Sabha Election to be conducted possibly in April 2024.
“Nagas will have the opportunity to channelise our dreams into reality if we come together. The Rising People’s Party gives a clarion call to the Naga People to rise above party politics and elect the right leader to represent the Nagas in the upcoming Lok Sabha Election,” RPP said.

For the party, this is the right time to fight for the future else Nagaland will continue to remain a failed state.
“The 2024 Lok Sabha elections will be a battle of ideologies and it’s important for
Nagas to stay on the right side of history. Given the opportunity, the RPP will work
selflessly for the cherished dreams of our Naga People, which is, the creation of a new
and better Nagaland,” the party assured.
