The Working Committee of Naga National Political Groups (WC-NNPGs) has appointed a new leadership to push forward negotiations with the Indian government regarding the longstanding Naga Political Issue. MB Neokpao Konyak will serve as the new convener, supported by P Tikhak and Isak Sumi as working conveners.

These appointments come as part of the group's commitment to achieving a political breakthrough, stressing the importance of collaborative efforts among its seven affiliate groups. The leaders aim to maintain constant coordination and consultations on all matters related to Naga political issues.
