"Addressing Conflicts in India's North East"
June 25-27, New Delhi

The seminar was held with the objectives of exploring new perspectives on the multiplicity of conflicts in India’s Northeast, and to assess the efficacy of conventional wisdom and past policies that have been applied to the resolution of various problems in the region. It brought together serious students of the subject who wrote on hitherto unexplored themes and provide fresh insights to the known nuances of terrorist movements in the region, backed by hard documentary evidence. The participants were primarily proffessionals based in the North east while two other participants from other regions of India lent their expertise to the proceedings of the seminar.
