Isak Chishi Swu (11 November 1929 – 28 June 2016)[1] was the chairman of the Nationalist Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN). He along with Thuingaleng Muivah and S. S. Khaplang were instrumental in the creation of NSCN on 31 January 1980 after opposing the 'Shillong Accord' signed by the then Naga National Council (NNC) with the Indian government.[2] He was unable to attend the historic Naga Framework Agreement signed on 4 August 2015 due to health conditions.
