Days of protests in Nagaland have now given way to a fragile normalcy. Roadblocks that paralysed the capital, Kohima, and Dimapur have been lifted. But the protesters have not withdrawn yet. The protests were against the dilution of tribal rights guaranteed under Article 371(A) of the constitution which included 33 per cent reservation for women in civic elections in urban areas. The Naga tribal group protested this clause on grounds that it dilutes constitutional provisions that allows them to follow their customary laws. But it escalated after two boys among the protesters were killed in police firing last week.
