The associations have long been demanding nominated seats in their respective ULBs.
The CNCCI had earlier declared a state-wide business shutdown on April 24 over the same issue, but called it off after talks with the Nagaland government.
The districts that are most likely to be affected by the shutdown include Dimapur, Chumoukedima, Niuland, Peren, Wokha, Zunheboto, Phek, Tseminyu and Meluri, an official of one of the associations said.
Muru, however, said the strike would not disrupt essential services.
“The shutter down is not anti-government. We are only exercising our democratic rights. It is going to be voluntary,” Muru said.
Despite multiple representations submitted to the government over the years, there has been no concrete response, he added. PTI CORR NBS RBT
