2015 Indian counter-insurgency operation in Myanmar
Designated as a terrorist group by
India
The National Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN) is a Naga militant and separatist group operating mainly in northeastern part of India, with minor activities in northwest Myanmar (Burma).[2][10] The main aim of the organisation is allegedly to establish a sovereign Naga state, "Nagalim",[11] which would consist of all the areas inhabited by Naga tribes in Northeast India and northwest Myanmar.[4] India claims that China and Pakistan provide financial support and weaponry to the NSCN. Drug trafficking and extortion are believed to be other major sources of income for the NSCN.
There are two major factions of the NSCN, NSCN-K, which was led by S. S. Khaplang, and NSCN-IM, which was led by Isak Chishi Swu and Thuingaleng Muivah.[12] Smaller factions comprise the rest of the NSCN. In 2015, in response to an attack on an army convoy in Manipur, India designated the NSCN-K as a terrorist organization under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act.[13] India's Ministry of Home Affairs labels NSCN a major insurgent group.[14]
