North-east India: The SEVEN SISTERS
North-East India has a marked individuality and uniqueness of its own.
It is a miniature India – an epitome of the subcontinent. It is a
paradise and an anthropological museum where we can witness the beauty
and variety of India. The thick forests full of rare animals, beautiful
traditional villages, amazing cliffs, fascinating heavenly greenery,
gently flowing rivers and mighty Brahmaputra (Assam) are all exceptional
uniqueness of this place. This is a land where history has its roots.
The people of this area are mainly Mongoloid race. On the basis of
certain commonalities like socio-cultural similarity, linguistic
affinity, ethnic affiliation and common territory, these tribes are
conveniently divided and settled in different regions. The Boros, the
Khasis, the Arunachalis, the Nagas, etc., are the major tribes of this
region and they have a number of sub-tribes.
Most of
the tribes have their own tribal religions, tribal gods, ways of worship
and tribal ways of sacrifices. But many of them have accepted
Christianity. Christianity in this part of India has the history of
more than a century. The Christian values and principles, Christian
ethics and morality have certainly influenced the people of North-east
India. The hard work that is put in by the Christian missionary
Congregations are really commendable.
