Meluri as Nagaland’s 17th District
The Nagaland government recently elevated Meluri to district status, making it the state’s 17th district. This transformation aligns with the state’s trend toward creating districts, aiming to improve local governance. Meluri, which borders Myanmar, is primarily inhabited by the Pochury Naga tribe and benefits from a new, centralized administration structure. Expected benefits include enhanced public services, infrastructure investment, and local economic growth, with residents welcoming this step. The geopolitical location also facilitates better border management. The move underscores Nagaland’s broader decentralization strategy to bring governance closer to the people.
