The Naga Nationalist Movement is a political movement aimed at achieving greater autonomy or independence for the Naga people, an ethnic group primarily located in the northeastern region of India and parts of Myanmar. The movement has its roots in the post-colonial period, with various groups advocating for the recognition of Naga identity and rights, often leading to tensions with the Indian government. Key organizations involved in this movement include the Naga National Council (NNC) and the National Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN). The movement has seen both peaceful negotiations and armed conflict, reflecting the complexities of ethnic identity, governance, and regional politics in the area.
