Nagaland govt will reconsider time frame for RIIN exercise: Rio
GUWAHATI: Nagaland chief minister Neiphiu Rio on Wednesday said that the state government would reconsider the timeframe and also work out the modalities with the help of various stakeholders for the Register of Indigenous Inhabitants of Nagaland (RIIN) exercise.
Rio, who attended the consultative meeting with legislators, tribal hohos (tribal apex bodies), civil society organisations, NGOs and government representatives in Kohima, said that cooperation of tribal hohos and civil society organizations is essential as the government alone would not be able to carry out this task.

Deputy chief minister, Y Patton also attended the meeting chaired by chief secretary of Nagaland, Temjen Toy.
“Chief minister called upon all the tribal hohos and civil society organizations to cooperate with the government in this endeavour. He said the government alone would not be able to carry out this task and as such urged all concerned to be part of this exercise by way of engaging themselves with the common people at the grassroots level. As suggested by tribal hohos and CSOs, the government would also reconsider the timeframe and also work out the modalities with the help of various stakeholders,” a government statement said.
The consultative meeting resolved to extend cooperation to the state government for implementation of the Register of Indigenous Inhabitants of Nagaland (RIIN) and the exercise would be carried out only after final modalities/guidelines are agreed upon, the statement said.
