Nagaland Statehood Day is celebrated on December 1st every year in the Indian state of Nagaland. This day marks the creation of the state of Nagaland on December 1, 1963. Nagaland became the 16th state of the Indian Union following its formation, separating from the state of Assam.
The establishment of Nagaland as a separate state was a result of the Naga people's demand for self-determination and recognition of their unique identity and culture. The region had witnessed a prolonged struggle, and the formation of the state was a significant step in addressing the aspirations of the Naga people.
Nagaland Statehood Day is a public holiday in the state, and various events, ceremonies, cultural programs, and parades are organized to commemorate the occasion. It provides an opportunity for the people of Nagaland to celebrate their state's history, culture, and achievements.
