CONDITION USED GOOD, A PHILOSOPHY FOR NEFA , ELWIN, 1960

This compelling book offers an insightful account of the North-East Frontier Agency (NEFA), one of India’s least-known and most remote regions. Spanning over thirty thousand square miles of rugged terrain, NEFA is home to numerous tribal communities speaking diverse dialects. Drawing on his three decades of research on tribal life, Dr. Verrier Elwin explores the complex challenges of administering and developing this region in the wake of India’s independence. Endorsed by Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru, who highlights its national significance, this revised edition presents both the story of NEFA and broader principles of tribal welfare, offering valuable insights for readers interested in tribal affairs across India and beyond.
