Abstract (Original Language):
Hill passes on Northeast India had immense importance for its strategic and
cartographic location. These hill tracks connect Northeast India with east, southeast
and west. With Burma and China the contact were maintained through several hill tracks
lying between India-Burma borders at Himalayan Ranges. These hill passes were used
by groups of people for their movement on either sides from early past and it bears both,
social and anti-social elements to this region. It had a great importance from the point of
cultural intercourse, immigration, frontier war etc. The region had the experiences of
World War and the inhabitants had the experience of guerrilla war fare, taught from the
Allied power. At present Kachin is most important training ground for the outfit groups of
the Northeastern region. They had taken training in lieu of money. Kachins are traded
arms, earlier which were left by the Allied powers in dense areas of Burma after the end
of war and at present bought from neighbouring nations. The Kachin area is an
important site for drug also, and smuggled it. Thus this paper high lightings these antisocial
issues which are in-filtered to the region through hill tracks.
