Evolutiont of Naga Hills Tuensang Area : An overview of Eastern Nagaland
The Eastern Nagaland area presently comprises of six districts namely; Tuensang, Mon, Kiphire, Longleng,Noklak and Shamator. The whole area is inhabited by seven major tribes such as, Sangtam, Chang,Konyak,Yimkhiung,Khiamniungan,Phom and Tikhirs and very little population of sumis . The Tuensang town serves as a nerve center of the eastern part of Nagaland. All this area remained totally unadministered in the pre-independence days and so the British had declared it as excluded area. The region was left outside the ‘innerline’, a bureaucratic division separating tea gardens and other areas of commercial interest for the colonial government in the Northeast from areas that were unadministered or partially administered. In 1948, for the first time, an administrative centre was established at Tuensang . In 1945 the entire Naga Hill areas including eastern Nagaland was brought under the Northeast Frontier Agency (NEFA). In 1957, the Tuensang Frontier Division (Eastern Region) was separated from the NEFA and merged with the Naga Hills District of Assam to form a new administrative unit called the Naga Hills Tuensang Area. The administration of NHTA was the responsibility of the Governor of Assam under the control of the Ministry of External Affairs, Government of India. There were only three districts at that time in Nagaland ie, Kohima, Mokokchung and Tuensang. It was under the banner of Naga Hills Tuensang Area, on 1st December 1963 a full-fledged state of ‘Nagaland ‘was created as the 16th state of the Indian Union.
