The Prime Minister Narendra Modi led government signed a pact with the Nationalist Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN).
Signing of this pact concluded the talks that began in 1997 and marked a "historic peace agreement".
However, integration of Nagaland with other Naga-dominated states of Assam, Manipur and Arunachal Pradesh is still unclear. This "re-organisation of states" was suggested by Nationalist Socialist Council earlier.
