The Congress Saturday asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi to explain whether the government has entered into an agreement with the National Socialist Council of Nagalim (Isak-Muivah) "compromising the territorial integrity of India" and promised a separate national flag and passport for Nagas. Nearly a year after the NDA government signed a framework agreement with NSCN (I-M), the main Opposition party has asked the Modi administration government to spell out details of the "secret agreement" and place it before Parliament. While the government has been silent on the fine points of the agreement, Muivah has recently said that the NSCN (I-M) has not given up its demand for sovereignty, and a separate flag and passport for Nagas was not just a demand but a right, as the "Nagas were never under Indian rule."
