Indiaâ€™s North-Eastern region is a gateway to South-East Asia. Owing to its strategic geo-political importance in the Indian sub-continent, the area has attracted over the years, specialists from different fields especially sociologists and anthropologists. Earlier, Christian missionaries and scholarly-oriented British administrators also tried to project through their writings, the traditional life styles, customs, rituals, religious beliefs, etc. of this region. Undoubtedly, the North-Eastern region still poses challenges as well as vast scope for study in its multifarious facets. In recent years, the Government of India consciously pursued what we call the â€˜Look East Policyâ€™ to give a fresh impetus to Indiaâ€™s close ties with South-East Asia and East Asia. Discovery of North-East India, it is hoped, will be well received by the academics and the scholarly community in India and abroad for making an in-depth study of this region.
