2009 Indian general election in Nagaland

The 2009 Indian general election in Nagaland was part of the 15th Lok Sabha elections, held in April–May 2009, to elect representatives for the two parliamentary constituencies in the state: Nagaland and Nagaland (ST). The election was characterized by a significant voter turnout, reflecting the engagement of the electorate in the democratic process. The Nationalist Democratic Progressive Party (NDPP) emerged as a prominent political force, contesting alongside other key parties such as the Indian National Congress (INC) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Issues such as regional identity, governance, and the demand for statehood played pivotal roles in shaping the election discourse. Ultimately, the election reaffirmed the political landscape of Nagaland and its unique sociocultural dynamics.
