Nagaland: Two-day walkathon commences demanding repeal of AFSPA

Hundreds of Naga men and women from all walks of life on Monday began a two-day walkathon covering 70 km distance from Dimapur to state capital Kohima demanding the repeal of AFSPA and justice for the 14 civilians who were killed by security forces in Mon district in December last year. 

Holding placards and banners with messages demanding the repeal of AFSPA, which they called a "draconian" act, people raised slogans seeking justice for those 14 civilians.
