As the peace process continues in Nagaland for the last several years, tensions in the area have also increased. The central government has said to sign the agreement by 31 October. Meanwhile, talks were again held between the central government and NSCN-IM representatives on Monday. During this time some sensitive issues including separate flags and constitution were discussed. On Saturday, the issue of separate flag and constitution was discussed between NSCN-IM general secretary Thuingleng Muivah and interlocutor from the Center and Nagaland Governor RN Ravi.
According to media reports, possible ways to find a 'respectable' solution were discussed. According to sources, the threat of separate flags and the demand of the constitution is rejected, threatening the exercise of the peace process. At the same time, there is a lot of tension on the demand of Greater Nagaland especially in Manipur in the event of a compromise. In Nagaland and Naga-dominated areas of Manipur, the administration has issued a high alert and cancelled the holidays of police and security staff.

Nagaland Director General of Police T. Jan Langkumar said in his statement, seven battalions of police have been kept in reserve. Two months ration and fuel have been deposited. In Ukhrul district of Manipur, the administration has directed the concerned department to deposit the necessary goods. So that there is no problem of food grains in case of disturbance or adverse situation after the agreement. Out of Nagaland, the most Nagas are in Manipur. Here the administration has cancelled the holidays of all policemen of Imphal Western District. The first demand of NSCN (I-M) is an integration of Naga-dominated areas. Manipur has always been against it.

In this case, political observers say that many Naga groups cannot agree to a peace deal. Apart from this, there is uncertainty about the attitude of NSCN to Isaac-Muivah. After rejecting the demand for separate flags and constitution, whether or not he will be ready for the agreement, no one has the answer. It is also not clear whether the Center has agreed to the demand for integration of Naga-dominated areas.
