We the undersigned, would like to appeal to the people of Nagaland, Government of Nagaland, Civil Societies and Churches for the well being of our people and society. The Church has been playing a leading role in the promotion of education, literature, social, economic, moral and ethical life of our people with an objective to bring our society in conformity to the Christ’s teaching.
God wants our faith to be translated in action in transforming our society. A society where there will be fair distribution of resources; sharing of power and opportunity, and respect for human dignity by upholding Christian values.
Prohibition is a step towards a healthy, clean and peaceful society. It was the Church that prayed and struggled for Prohibition of Liquor and it is becoming a reality. It is unthinkable that any Government should retrieve back to lift the Prohibition Act totally or partially. We believe that the Government is of the people, for the people and by the people. The people’s representatives in the Government are expected not to take any decision against the wishes of the people. Majority of the Nagas are Christians; the voice of the Church should be taken into consideration as the voice of the people.
WE EARNESTLY REQUEST TO
1. THE PEOPLE OF NAGALAND
To avoid consumption, use and sale of alcohol because it will never contribute towards healthy life, family wellbeing and peaceful atmosphere.
2. THE GOVERNMENT OF NAGALAND
a. That the Govt. should not lift NLTP 1989, rather amend the section where supply, drinking and use of liquor are permitted.
b. That Excise Dept. be strengthened through enhancing manpower and facilities.
c. That Village Councils, Municipal Councils and Voluntary Organizations be included in the law enforcing agency.
3. THE CIVIL SOCIETIES
That Civil Society exists for the building, refinement and welfare of the society. Alcohol is a destructive element, therefore we urge you to advocate for an alcohol free society to protect our citizens from the grip of alcoholism.
4. THE CHURCH
a. That with the objective to transform for land in Christian principle we have proclaimed ‘Nagaland for Christ’; ‘10,000 Missionaries/Volunteers’ and ‘Dry State’. Put all your concerted efforts to make our declaration a reality.
b. Go into all the world; to the world of alcoholics, drug addicts, HIV/AIDS positives, destitute, sick, neglected, poor, orphans and the needy. Cultivate supportive mechanism to win them to Christ by Christian love through spiritual and material care.
c. Rely on spiritual weapon of prayer and fasting. For the weapon of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God the pulling down of strong- holds (2 Cor. 10:4)
May God bless Nagaland.

Mind your business
The little boy was sitting on a park bench munching on one chocolate bar after another. After the 6th one a man on the bench across from him said, 'Son, you know eating all those chocolates isn't good for you. It will give you acne, rot your teeth, make you fat.'
The boy replied, 'My grandfather lived to be 107 years old.'
The man asked, 'Did your grandfather eat 6 chocolate bars at a time?'
The little boy answered, 'No, he minded his own damn business!'
