Thuingaleng Muivah

Thuingaleng Muivah is a Naga nationalist politician and General Secretary of the National Socialist Council of Nagaland (I-M).

Early career
He joined the Naga National Council (NNC), an armed group campaigning for secession of Nagaland from India. He subsequently became the General Secretary of NNC. When a group of NNC leaders signed the Shillong Accord of 1975 with the Government of India, Muviah and some others denounced them as traitors. ==NNC to NSCN==
NNC to NSCN
In 1980, a faction led by Isak Chishi Swu, S. S. Khaplang and Muivah broke away from NNC to form the National Socialist Council of Nagalim (NSCN). The NSCN was formed as a result of discontentment with the Shillong Accord, and continued secessionist activities abandoned by the NNC. The group later split into NSCN(I-M) led by Swu and Muivah, and NSCN (K) led by Khaplang due to major disagreements. == Peace talks ==
Peace talks
NSCN (I-M) under the leadership of Muivah and Isak Chishi Swu signed a ceasefire agreement with the Government of India in August 1997 after decades of engaging in hostile fighting with Indian security forces. The major breakthrough of the peace talk happened on 3 August 2015 with the signing of a peace accord between Muivah-led NSCN(I-M) and the Narendra Modi-led Indian Government. In 2010, the Manipur state government barred Muivah from returning to his native Ukhrul District, which he had not visited since 1973, triggering large-scale deadly protests. He was finally allowed to return in 2025. ==References==
