Naga political movement

The Naga political movement is a ongoing struggle by the Naga people, an indigenous group primarily in northeastern India and northwestern Myanmar, to achieve political self-determination. Historically, Nagas sought independence or greater autonomy, feeling distinct from the Indian government. This movement involves negotiations, cultural assertion, and occasionally conflict, aiming for recognition of Naga identity, rights, and possibly a separate nation. It is driven by a desire to preserve their cultural heritage, land, and political sovereignty, amidst complex regional dynamics and multiple stakeholders with different visions for Naga's future.
