From Frontier to the Heartland

While much of the present literature discusses the evolution and journeys of several key players in the region, one organization’s story has remained under wraps. From Frontiers to the Heartland: A Century of Sangh Parivar in the Northeast is an attempt to change that. 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 heterogenous identities in the country, making it one of the hardest regions to navigate in terms of national integration. The region has experienced all shades of violence—and deafening silences—through its turbulent history, and has rarely known peace. Across its vast geographical expanse, it has witnessed women and men, organizations and nationalities, and colonial and sovereign powers attempt to interact with the population in their own unique ways.
