Aghunato is a sub division of the Zunheboto district in Nagaland[1] in the far north east of India. Like other parts of Nagaland it is unusual, for India, in having the Baptist Church as the dominant religion due to the work of American missionaries. It has its own constituency in the state assembly and had 15659 registered voters in the 2013 elections.[2] Aghunato is represented in the state Legislative Assembly by Shri Pukhai. Its terrain is mountainous and dominated by evergreen forests. Geographic coordinates: 92 longitude - latitude 28-24
