Nagaki, officially Nagaki Global City, is a proposed planned city located in Chathe Valley in the Chümoukedima District of the Indian state of Nagaland. The project was first announced in 2023.

Etymology

The name Nagaki is derived from Naga, referring to the Naga people and Ki, meaning “house” or “home” in many Naga languages. The name therefore means “Home of the Nagas”.

Proposal

The proposed city is expected to cover an area of approximately 39 square kilometres with the first phase of development focusing on a smaller incubation area intended to establish the core urban infrastructure.

Transportation

Air

The nearest airport to the site is Dimapur Airport. The proposed Nagaki Rüzaphema International Airport is also expected to serve the planned city once operational.

Asian Highway 2 : Denpasar – Nagaki - Khosravi
NH 29 : Dabaka (Assam) – Nagaki – Jessami (Manipur)
