roads are not built over there …
And Jungles cliffs every where
No economy to earn lively
Nothing to eat nothing to wear
All these baseless assumptions are only few of your views
Yes the stereotyping abt north east still continues ,…!!
*** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** ***
Northeast has India’s mosg cleanest states
Worlds seventh richest biodiversities this beautiful place illustrates
Owning 70 % of worlds orchids
Tripura and Mizoram are among highest literacy rate ..

From the place where sun rises first
The satisfying cure of your composure thirst
Yes from where naajhulakiyas are form
But the heaven on earth is egnored ur badluck ofcourse
Place with spirit of multiple folk arts
Love for ethnicity and petrotism in heart
Then why questioning our nationality and splitting us apart
Or for clearing the confusion frm the beginning lemmi start
Form the very first experience of racism we faced
Is there in our own country
I couldn’t count the number of eyes staring on me
Not two not four coz they were just too many
Our identities are trapped in the names liek chinky and Chinese
Haven’t uh seen the Indian map jus tell me this thing please
If we can know where the 21 states are
Can’t uh just remember where my north east is
Yess we’re normal ..like all of you
And dogs ,snakes, frogs , spiders are not our staple food
prostitution and smuggling are not the economic activities we do.
When it comes to music it’s far more than jhungalala hu hu
(India is known for diverse cultures and foods
Ironically indians can’t accept tht )
People of India know who Chetan Bhagat is but don’t who’s mamag DAi
Then they questions about our literacy ..I wonder wht to say
We may not have that modernity but atleast were modern from our mental state
And I mention Inspite of hundreds of tribes we have pretty high literacy rate
The tea from which the uh start your day , Yes we northeasterns cultivate
Ever heard of World famous Moga silk yes we people create
Remember we were ask to move China we Yess back then we choose this as our place
And you can’t questions our patriotism just because we have a different face
“Ek mitti se upaja anaj khake yeh uch neech kaisi ATI hai
Yeh bhed bhav yeh paksh pat dharti to nahi sikhati hai
Kya sach me yeh Ekta sanskrit or vividhta ka Desh hai??
Is hind me hind ab bacha nahi ,
bus uutar-dakshin purab-pashchim ka batwara hi Sesh hai .”
