The Nagas are a young race in civilization and are under different administrative units in India and Burma. The Nagas were not Indians but they were under the British Indian Administration and even after Indian Independence in 1947 the Nagas were and are under Indian administration up to now.
The Nagas have been pursuing their separate sovereign entity since 1929 up to 2017 and it is 88 years now. The aspiration of the Nagas was translated into Naga Independence movement under the leadership of A.Z. Phizo and the movement has awakened all of the Nagas wherever they are and they have their aspiration to live together under the same roof of Naga Nationhood. Their will and aspiration runs in their veins , so no human power can stop them from getting them integrated one day.
The Nagas have emotional integration already but because of their being under different administrative units , they are facing political barriers and are still struggling for practical integration and sooner or later their goal will be achieved democratically and in good faith.
Among the Nagas themselves many are yet strangers and unfamiliar with one another. Hence there may be in some corners someone may be intolerant of one another’s unfamiliar conduct and behaviours. But one day sense of oneness and belonging will prevail.
If the Nagas commit themselves to the Creator to be led by the law of relationship with God , “Know God , believe in Him , fear Him and obey Him” in every thing as a nation to do anything in relationship with God , the hand of God will be seen by the world in relationship among the people and with the rest of the world.
