History Deconstructed
Synopsis
The film examines the policy initiatives in the North East to increase its social, economic and cultural interaction with the rest of the country. North Eastern India, due to its geographical isolation has not been developed at par with the rest of the country. Now, the Government of India with its 'Look East Policy' has taken a step to rectify this situation. There have been new infrastructure initiatives within this region such as the setting up of a network of highways, railways and pipelines. With a large number of educated and English speaking youth emerging from these states combined with a policy of integrating with the neighbouring states, the 'Look East Policy' aims to transform North-East India as a thriving social and economic belt.
