Nagaland Polls

Today's a big day in Nagaland's political history. The first-ever urban local body elections with 33 per cent reservation for women will be held today. There is however no election in eastern Nagaland region due to a poll boycott called by the ENPO.

The Eastern Nagaland People's Organisation (ENPO), demanding a separate administration or state comprising six districts of Nagaland, remained adamant to its decision not to take part in the elections to the lone Lok Sabha seat in Nagaland.

The Nagaland government's decision to indefinitely cancel the election to 36 town councils and three municipal councils, due on May 16, was put on hold by the Supreme Court on Wednesday.

In a significant move, the Nagaland assembly has passed a resolution to repeal the Nagaland Municipal Act, 2001.
