Campaigning Strategies
Keeping the coming Lok Sabha election in mind, the state government has launched the National Urban Health Mission (NUHM). K.V. Pusa, senior INC leader, will contest from the single parliamentary constituency of Nagaland. This decision has been unanimously recommended and also endorsed by the Nagaland Pradesh Congress Committee (NPCC).
As main campaign strategy, the INC will highlight the rampant misuse of the Member of Parliament Local Area Development (MPLAD) Fund, amounting to Rs. 25 crores, during 2009 to 2014, by the NPF.
The current Nagaland Chief Minister, Neiphiu Rio, has been selected as the Lok Sabha candidate of the NPF in the lone PC of the state. In an interesting turn of events, Z. Lohe, former political adviser to current Nagaland Chief Minister, Neiphiu Rio of the NPF, has joined the INC.
He will also campaign for the INC candidate from the Nagaland Lok Sabha seat. The Nationalist Congress Party's Nagaland unit has decided to support the NPF's Lok Sabha candidate, Neiphiu Rio. Currently, Rio is the consensus candidate of the NPF, the JD(U), and the BJP, forming the Democratic Alliance of Nagaland (DAN).
