Monalisa Chankija has a different style of writing on issues that concern the Nagas and Naga society. For instance, Naga history is told in a style very different from the familiar template-like format that many Naga writers have followed so far. Her writing is dense, but the issues she discusses are every-day realities. As a journalist, her insights and commentaries on issues such as the conflict in the Naga society, Northeast outside the print media, challenges for new vistas in journalism concerning the Northeast, and the complexities of Nagas today are engaging. Perhaps, the most contentious article for readers that can engender a lively discussion is the one on Naga marriage. Whether one agrees with her analysis or not, Monalisa Chankija’s articles are a step in the right direction for a thinking Naga society.
