The ruling coalition had inducted prime opposition NPF on August 16 last. It was then called the Nagaland United Government.

In the 60-member Nagaland Legislative Assembly, NPF is the single largest party with 25 members followed by the NDPP with 20 and the BJP with 12 while 2 MLAs are Independents. After the death of an MLA, the assembly has a strength of 59 members at this moment.

The BJP used to be the ally of the NPF, still a coalition in Manipur, before choosing the NDPP as its partner ahead of the 2018 Nagaland polls.
