Nagaland Tourism Minister Temjen Imna Along responded strongly to provocative statements from some Bangladeshi individuals threatening to sever the Northeast from India by targeting the 'Chicken's Neck' corridor. Along asserted the Northeast's strong connection to India and warned against any hostile actions, reminding Bangladesh of India's role in its 1971 liberation. He clarified that not all Bangladeshis hold such views but cautioned against nonsensical threats.
