Question

what are the tactics used by British in annexing northeast India?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Throughout the British colonial period, the North East was treated separately and

differently from other regions of British India. In the early colonial period, the

region formed part of Bengal Province and it was governed as though it were an

adjacent subordinate area of Bengal Province even after it became the separate

province of Assam in 1874. Moreover, with the Bengal Eastern Frontier

Regulation of 1873, a Line System was introduced on the pretext of protecting the

minority indigenous ethnic groups in the hill areas of Assam by restricting

outsiders’ entry, business activities, land transactions and settlement. For the same

purpose, in 1935 the hill areas were demarcated and divided into “excluded areas”

and “partially excluded Areas”3

. The former fell under direct British jurisdiction

and the latter were given a limited representative system under British

administrative control. In short, separation and isolation formed the core of

British policy towards the North East.
