Living with Insurgency

The North East has always stood out as a unique land within India that has been isolated and has braved enormous troubles. A land of many castes, tribes, traditions and cultures, these states reflect individual stands intrinsically woven into a fabric that stands out for its unusual beauty. The people of these states have a tale of their own, heavily influenced by their history and the geographical realities. The inclement weather and tough living conditions have added a special spirit in the people of North East. The author dreamt of narrating the experiences of these very people through his photographs; so this is an outcome of his dream, a small endeavor to share their stories. This book is a photojournalist's account of the life in Northeast India. It has an amazing collection of photographs and it focuses on the region's issues of insurgency, alienation and the long struggle of the people who are desperately fighting for an identity.
