Act East Policy in the Background of the North Eatern Region

  • India's The North Eastern Region of India had been suffering an unfortunate geographical isolation and perceived psychological alienation from the rest of the country as a consequence of partition and the irrational drawing of the Radcliffe Line, when thanks to the path-breaking vision of our Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modiji the decades old Look East Policy was metamorphosed into the more proactive Act East Policy in 2014 – thereby providing the region with a unique opportunity to reinvent itself as the hub of the country's emerging relations with her eastern neighbours.In this regard, the Hon'ble Prime Minister has not only designated 'Act East' Policy as a key component of his Government's Foreign Policy, but also explicitly mentioned that North-East India would play an important role in that 'Act East' Policy.
