The Konyak Union in Nagaland has dismissed flood allegations from Assam that attribute water damage to the Dikhu dam and gold mining operations in Naginimora.
The Konyak Union, a prominent tribal organization in Nagaland, has formally rejected flood claims made by authorities in Assam. The allegations link the water damage to the construction of the Dikhu dam and ongoing gold mining activities in Naginimora. The Union stated that there is no evidence to support the claim that these projects caused the flooding. It also emphasized that the Union has no involvement in the dam or mining operations. The dispute raises questions about environmental accountability and inter-state cooperation on water management.
