  • Chapter 7 Nagaland
    Chapter 7 Nagaland Charles Chasie 1. Land and people Part of Assam at the time of Indian Independence in 1947, Nagaland became a full fledged State on December 1, 1963, as a result of a political settlement with special constitutional guarantees (under Article 371A) and placed under the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA). If North East represents the richest ethnic region of the world, and meeting point of four major races (Aryan, Mongoloid, Austric, Tibeto-Burman) of the world, Nagaland and Nagas are known for the myriad tribes and rich culture and traditional systems ranging from the autocratic to “pure democracy”. It is believed that there are 64 Naga tribes living in four States (Nagaland, Manipur, Assam, Arunachal Pradesh) occupying the north easternmost parts of India as well as the North Western parts of Myanmar. In Nagaland State itself, there are 16 major Naga tribes. Nagaland is located between 25060’ and 27040’ N Latitude and 93020’ and 95015’ E Longitude. The State has an area of 16,579 square kms (0.5% of India’s geographical area). Its population is 19,88,636 (0.2% of India’s population) as per 2001 census. As per 1991 figures, the State has 2.17 lakh households but 82.26% of the population live in rural areas. The State has 11 administrative districts, 52 blocks and 9 census towns, covering 1286 villages. Nagaland has often been called ‘The land of festivals’ because with its 16 major tribes, one or the other tribe would be celebrating its festival every month of the calendar year.

FOREWORD The Great Indian One-homed Rhino is the pride of Assam. The gigantic Goliath is an integral part of our culture and social fabric, like Bihu, Brahmaputra and Kamaksha. Many songs and legends are woven around rhino and Kaziranga. This imposing animal is revered as the 'Bahan' or carriage of Lord Bishnu. Assam takes pride in having more than 65% of the world's total population of the Indian Rhino. We affectionately call it Gorh. Kaziranga National Park-KNP, in upper Assam, is the prime habitat of this mega animal, and a prehistoric relic of ancient times. This protected area is also a symbol of effective protection given to this beautiful animal, whose population has risen from a meagre of 12 individuals during 1908, to more than 1,500 today. The total population of Great Indian One-homed Rhino in India and Nepal may now be about 2,500.
