Nagaland became the 16th state of the Indian Union on December 1, 1963.
Before achieving statehood, the region was governed as a Union Territory known as the Naga Hills-Tuensang Area after the passage of the Naga Hills-Tuensang Area Act in 1957. Following agreements between the Government of India and the Naga People's Convention, the State of Nagaland Act was enacted in 1962, culminating in the formal inauguration of the state in 1963.
