Northeast Indian Literature refers to both the literature in the languages of Northeast India and the body of work of the writers writing in English from this region. The writers from India’s northeast have been grappling with numerous socio-political issues which have inspired them and provided some unique materials for their literary works. However, they have been able to strike a fine balance between a violent past of militarism, militancy, and innumerable predicaments, and comparatively a peaceful society of the present time in which the people started dreaming of a tranquil, safer and progressive life. These visionary writers, through their poetic creations, tried to bring reformation in their respective trouble torn society by creating awareness among the masses for whom, violence including bloodshed have been common occurrences for a long period of time.
