Non-inclusion of the tales of the anti-colonial movements of the North East region in works of history and textbooks has led to a perception that the North East had not been part of the freedom struggle at all. Yet, the heroic acts of patriotism of those like Maniram Dewan and Kushal Konwar of Assam, Ranuwa Gohain and Matmur Jamoh of present-day Arunachal Pradesh, Pasaltha Khuangcchera of present-day Mizoram, Pa Togan Sangma of Meghalaya and Tikendrajit of Manipur are no less than those of Mangal Pandey, Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev or Tantia Tope. This books seeks to unearth such untold stories of the freedom struggle from North East India.
