Kohima is the capital of Nagaland. The Diocese is named after the capital of the State. Nagaland is in the Northeastern corner of India, bordering Myanmar. There are 16 principal tribes. Collectively they are known as Naga Tribes. They have linguistic and dialectal variations that are different from one another.
Till 1973, Nagaland and Manipur were part of the Diocese of Dibrugarh. In 1973, the Diocese of Kohima-Imphal was carved out of Dibrugarh, with the Most Rev Abraham Alangimattathil sdb, as its first bishop. The heroic beginnings produced tangible results, which witnessed the creation of separate Diocese for the State of Nagaland in 1980.
Most Rev Abraham left for his heavenly abode on 18 November 1997. On 9 December 1997, Most Rev Jose Mukala was appointed as the second bishop of the Diocese of Nagaland and was consecrated on 15 March 1998. |
