Elections to the Nagaland Legislative Assembly were held in February 1969 to elect members of the 40 constituencies in Nagaland, India. Nagaland Nationalist Organisation won a majority of the seats and Hokishe Sema was appointed as the Chief Minister of Nagaland.
Nagaland was converted to a state by the State of Nagaland Act, 1962[1] and the first elections were called for in 1964. The five-year term for that assembly came to an end in January 1969.
