At the far end of our eastern lands, the sisters are often misunderstood, misread, and misinterpreted.Cradling distinctive and deep-rooted diversities, the hills are home to some of the most heterogenousidentities in the country, making it one of the hardest regions to navigate in terms of nationalintegration. The region has experienced all shades of violence—and deafening silences—through itsturbulent history, and has rarely known peace. Across its vast geographical expanse, it has witnessedwomen and men, organizations and nationalities, and colonial and sovereign powers attempt to interact with the population in their own unique ways. While much of the present literature discusses the evolution and journeys of several key players in the region, one organization’s story has remainedunder wraps. From Frontiers to the Heartland: A Century of Sangh Parivar in the Northeast is an attempt to change that.
Through this work, authors Rouhin Deb and Nabaarun Barooah offer an eye-opening exploration ofthe Sangh Parivar’s century-long journey in Northeast India. Drawing from oral narratives, storiesand first-hand research, the book delves into how the Sangh Parivar, often viewed as a force ofcentralization, has navigated the region’s rich cultural mosaic to bridge the socio-cultural, politicaland religious divides. From the spread of Christianity during British rule to post-Independencestruggles related to the Emergency, illegal immigration, ethnic militancy and regionalism, the Sangh’sjourney is a testament to its adaptability and resilience. Over time, it has successfully carved a nichefor itself in the region, and dominates the political narrative today.
