Nagaland legislators on lack of common language impacting jobs

Legislators of Nagaland on Tuesday lamented in the assembly that though the state has 17 tribal dialects, lack of a recognised common language is affecting job prospects of the local people.

Several neighbouring states of the northeastern region have such a mechanism, while the Nagaland government has notified English and Hindi as the only official languages for communication.

This has put the state's indigenous candidates at a disadvantage, while people from other states are filling up vacancies in Nagaland, a legislator said.
