In India, the Northeastern region is quite charming and interesting enough to be known about. Among the eight Northeastern States, Mizoram occupies an area of great strategic importance in the northeastern cornet of India. Mizoram has great natural beauty and an endless variety of landscape. It is rich in fauna and flora. The origin of the word ‘Mizo’ is not known. The Mizos came under the influence of the British Missionaries in 19th century. Now, most of the Mizos are Christians. Mizo language has no script of its own. The missionaries introduced Roman script for Mizo language and formal education. Literacy in the state has grown rapidly, and in Mizoram literacy at 88.8 percent, is second highest in the country. The state government is striving hard to attain the top position in near future.

Hopefully, it would serve all those working on or interested in knowing about northeastern India, be they scholars, researchers, journalists, students or general readers.
