DESCRIPTION
The North-East Region is a crucible where Aryan, Dravidian and Mongoloid reces are intermixed. This region is about 2,65,000 sq. km. in area with a population of forty million. It is envoloped by Bhutan, Nepal and China in the North and North-East, and in the South by Bangladesh and Myanmar. It is connected to the rest of India by the sole 20 km wide Siliguri corridor through which all lifelines to North East pass. This region is therefore very sensitive from the point of view of national security and mational integrity.
