Ethnic conflict in Nagaland

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The ethnic conflict in Nagaland is a civil war, ongoing since 1993, fought between the Nagas and the Kukis.

Participating are several rebel groups, the "National Socialist Council of Nagaland (Isak-Muivah)" aiming for a Christian religious state based on Maoism, the "National Socialist Council of Nagaland (Khaplang)", aiming for the establishment of an independent "greater Nagaland", and the "Naga National Council (Adino)".

First insurgencies occurred in the early 1950s. They subsided or repressed in the early 1980s. In 1993, violence re-erupted between the Nagas and the Kukis
