North East India is called nature’s gift to India. The region has been experiencing environmental depletion which was a result of colonial policies, exploitation of its ecological and mineral resources, establishment of the plantation industry through deforestation and other factors. This books depicts the precariousness of the environmental situation and traces the history and politics of such degeneration with a view to raise the consciousness of the people of the region towards their environment and save it from further aggravation.
