Naga Hoho also highlighted that for the past few years the University has been surrendering a yearly plan for the development of the university. In spite of that no development work for the University has been undertaken yet.

The Hoho also pointed out that while depriving the local qualified unemployed youth of the state, people from outside the states like Manipur and Assam have been employed in the University. The organization now wants to create a good atmosphere and the new Vice Chancellor should be appointed. The Governor of Nagaland is yet to respond to this appeal by the Naga HoHo.
