Abstract

Besides Look East policy, various regional and subregional initiatives by Indian government are expected to help the promotion of trade for strategically located northeastern states. However, the pattern of formal trade with the bordering nations has not been observed to be favourable for all the states of India’s northeast. An attempt has been made in this study to examine the land custom station-wise and northeastern state-wise pattern and volume of trade with the bordering nations.
