Frontier Nagaland: When Enough is Enough | Documentary

Lack of Healthcare, education, infrastructure development, employment opportunities, and inflation are only some of the problems faced by the people of the 6 districts of Eastern Nagaland.

Although the demand for a separate state was first made in 2010, the movement resurfaced in 2022, only months before the Assembly polls.

On August 9 last year, the Eastern Nagaland People's Organization (ENPO), apex body of the Eastern Nagas, held a public rally to press for the creation of ‘Frontier Nagaland’.

Predominantly settled in the districts of Tuensang, Mon, Longleng, Kiphire, Noklak, and Shamator, the Eastern Nagaland region contribute only one-third, or 20, of the 60s MLAs in the assembly.

Following ENPO’s meeting with Amit Shah, a 3-member committee of the Ministry of Home Affairs headed by Advisor AK Mishra was constituted to study the ‘Frontier Nagaland’ demand. The team visited the state for a 3-day meeting on December 16, 2022.

On January 3, the state government made an appeal to the ENPO to reconsider its demand.
