Bibliography 198 Chapter 1: Introduction Regional Political Parties: A Theoretical Perspective 1 Introduction Nagaland one of the states under the Indian Union is located in the extreme north- eastern region of India, with Kohima as its capital and covers an area of 16,579 sq.km. The state has common boundaries with Myanmar in the east, state of Assam in the west, Arunachal Pradesh and a part of Assam in the north and with Manipur in the south 1. Earlier Nagaland was a part of undivided state of Assam as Naga Hills district. The state of Nagaland was created by an act of Parliament in 1962 and was inaugurated on 1 st December 1963 by the President of India, Dr. Sarvapalli Radhakrishnan as the sixteen state of the Indian Union 2. The strength of the Nagaland Legislative Assembly was fixed to 60 (sixty) members and 1 (one) representative each to both house of the Indian Parliament i.e. Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha. The election to the first state legislative assembly was held from 10 th to 16 th January 1964 3. It was a straight contest between the two political parties, the Naga Nationalist Organisation (NNO) and Democratic Party of Nagaland (DPN), both these parties were regional in character but the NNO party was considered as an associate party of the Indian National Congress (INC). The NNO party emerged victorious and formed the government with Mr. P. Shilu Ao as the first Chief Minister of Nagaland on 25 th January 1964 4. 1 . A.

Nagaland is Born , Directorate of Information & Publicity, Government of Nagaland, Kohima, p.116 2 Prior to the creation of state, in 1957, the Naga people had also participated in the electoral process and had sent 3 (three) representatives to the Assam Legislative Assembly but it was a representatives of Nagas from the Naga Hills since, there was no political party at that time. The political party emerged in Nagaland 5 only after it got statehood in 1963. Another major political development in Nagaland politics took place in the year 1976, when the Naga Nationalist Organisation (NNO) party merged with the Indian National Congress (INC). This merger brought the state of Nagaland and Nagas in contact with the mainstream politics, hence the Nagaland politics got the national outlook. The party system that had been in existence in Nagaland is a bi-party system with Indian National Congress (INC) party on the one hand and the regional political party on the other. Today, the nomenclature of the regional political party in Nagaland is Naga People’s Front (NPF). From the Democratic Party of Nagaland (DPN) in 1963 to Naga People’s Front (NPF) of today, the party has undergone numerous changes in its nomenclature to suit the demanding situation of different periods, but the party symbol, motto, principles, aims and objectives had remained unchanged 6. There had been lots of work done on the Nagas but it had been mainly concentrated on its origin, society and Naga National Movement. Only little work had been done on the emergence and role of regional political parties in Nagaland. Hence, an in- depth analysis on the emergence, functioning and working of regional political parties in Nagaland was felt very much needed, for which I had proposed my 5 . B.N.

Theoretical Framework Political Party: A Conceptual Analysis The term “Political Parties” emerged in the nineteenth century with the development of representative institutions and the expansion of the suffrage in Europe and the United States. It is a designated organisation, whose goal is to capture the public office in electoral competition with one or more other parties 7. A political party is a group or would be officials who are linked with a sizeable group of citizens into an organisation, a chief object of this organisation is to ensure that its officials attain power or are maintained in power 8. Burke had defined political party as a group of men organised for promoting the common interest through their endeavour on certain agreed principles 9. The political party also performs several other functions like, mobilising popular participation in politics, elite recruitment and representing sections of the public but winning elections and controlling the machinery of state power are its paramount 10 objective. In a democracy, political parties hold a very important place. It had become essential to the democratic achievement of choosing leaders and communicating the public 7 . David L.

  • Nandini Sundar
    Interning Insurgent Populations: the buried histories of Indian Democracy Nandini Sundar Darzo (Mizoram) was one of the richest villages I have ever seen in this part of the world. There were ample stores of paddy, fowl and pigs. The villagers appeared well-fed and well-clad and most of them had some money in cash. We arrived in the village about ten in the morning. My orders were to get the villagers to collect whatever moveable property they could, and to set their own village on fire at seven in the evening. I also had orders to burn all the paddy and other grain that could not be carried away by the villagers to the new centre so as to keep food out of reach of the insurgents…. I somehow couldn’t do it. I called the Village Council President and told him that in three hours his men could hide all the excess paddy and other food grains in the caves and return for it after a few days under army escort. They concealed everything most efficiently. Night fell, and I had to persuade the villagers to come out and set fire to their homes. Nobody came out. Then I had to order my soldiers to enter every house and force the people out. Every man, woman and child who could walk came out with as much of his or her belongings and food as they could. But they wouldn’t set fire to their homes. Ultimately, I lit a torch myself and set fire to one of the houses.

  • 3. on April 9, 1946, the NNC Submitted a Memorandum to The
    The 72nd anniversary of NNC formation Day. The Naga Club was formed in October 1918, and the same leaders renamed the Naga Club as the Naga National Council (NNC) on the 2nd February 1946 at Wokha Town, Nagaland, and the Naga Club leaders became the leaders of NNC. The aspiration of the leaders was to safeguard the sovereignty of Nagaland in those days of changing world. Today, the 2nd February 2018 is the 72nd anniversary of the NNC formation Day. The achievements and history of the NNC. 1. With the formation of the NNC, all the Naga Villages were brought into a nation for the first time in the Naga national history. Before the formation of the NNC, each and every Naga village was sovereign and republic in itself. 2. The NNC blatantly rejected the Couplan plan of the British Crown Colony for the Hill people of Frontier areas, which was proposed by Sir Robert Reid and Sir Reginald Coupland in 1946, and thus the plan became non-starter. 3. On April 9, 1946, the NNC submitted a memorandum to the British Cabinet Commission Camp New Delhi stating that “The Naga future would not be bound by arbitrary decision of the British Government. And any recommendation without consultation would not be accepted. We have not deviated from the true path of national independence. We shall not betray our nation.” 4. On 27th March, 1946, the Naga National Council sent a letter to Lord Simon, House of Lords, stated that “we the Nagas made it clear to your Lordship and your Lordship’s colleagues in 1929 that we desire to be left alone in the event of the British withdrawal from India.

The first ever peace building effort was made as early as in June 1947 through an agreement between the then Governor of Assam and the Naga National Council. The effort however failed to have any meaningful impact. Thereafter, the Naga National Council declared independence and claimed to have conducted a plebiscite for independence. The government was willing to give limited autonomy under the constitution of the country. The Nagas rejected the offer and boycotted the first parliamentary elections held in 1951. In 1959, the Naga People’s Convention adopted a resolution for the formation of a separate state. This led to the Sixteen-Point agreement to elevate Naga Hills-Tuensang Areas into a state known as Nagaland. But, the creation of Nagaland could not bring peace. Another agreement, popularly known as the Shillong accord, was signed in 1975 between the Government of India and the “Representative of the Underground Organisations”. It created a major rift within the Naga National Council which ultimately led to its split in 1980 with the formation of the National Socialist Council of Nagaland. Meanwhile, a ceasefire came into being in 1997 between the Government of India and the NSCN-IM, and separately with the Khaplang-led NSCN faction since 2001.

It has aroused large collectives of people and has become the grounds on which economic, cultural and political claims have been made. The nation has also become a marker of identity for individuals and whole societies. In this paper, I would like to look at the beginnings and formation of Naga nationalism and the important economic, cultural and political claims it makes. The beginnings of Naga nationalism could be located in the specific encounter Nagas had with modernity via British administrators and missionaries. From the 1940s onwards, the claims made by Naga nationalism have been met with certain ideological and militarist response from the Indian state. The response of the Indian state has determined the subsequent efforts of the Nagas to define the contours of their nationalism.

It is a part of a larger effort by the Conflict Resolution Programme at the National Institute of Advanced Studies, Bangalore, to develop an inclusive knowledge base that would help effectively address major conflicts of interest to the country. In pursuit of this objective it carries out research that could help throw up fresh perspectives on conflict even as it develops mechanisms to increase awareness about the nature of specific crises.The backgrounders form an important part of the second exercise. The backgrounders are targeted at the intelligent layperson who requires a quick and yet reliable account of a specific conflict.These introductory overviews would be useful to administrators, media personnel and others seeking their first information on a particular conflict. It is also hoped that as the series grows it will act as an effective summary of scholarly information available on conflicts across the country. By their very nature these backgrounders attempt to provide a picture on which there is some measure of consensus among scholars. But we are quite aware that this is not always possible.The views expressed are those of the author(s); and not necessarily those of the National Institute of Advanced Studies.The dissemination of these backgrounders to all who may need them is an important part of the entire effort.

Department of POLITICAL SCIENCE The University of British Columbia 2075 Wesbrook Place Vancouver, Canada V6T 1W5 ABSTRACT This study is rooted in a theoretical interest in the development of parties that appeal mainly to primordial ties. The claims of social relationships based on tribe, race, language or religion have the capacity to rival the civil order of the state for the loyalty of its citizens, thus threatening to undermine its political authority. This phenomenon is endemic to most Asian and African states. Most previous research has argued that political competition in such contexts encourages the formation of primordially based parties whose activities threaten the integrity of these states.
