text: After miles of jungle and small villages, Kohima with its great macadamed roads, its trucks and lorries, its corrugated iron buildings and untidy shops seems squalid and repulsive. But it is good to sit in a comfortable armchair again and resume our contacts with the world. In the Naga Hills there is still no disorder.
