Answer:

Eastern Himalaya is a traditional designation for the portion of the Himalaya range between the eastern border of Bhutan, on the west, and the Great Bend of the Tsangpo River, on the east. The highest peak of this range is Namcha Barwa. Other high peaks include Gyala Peri, sister peak to Namcha Barwa; Kangto, and Nyegyi Kansang. The area is still poorly surveyed in general, and little visited by outsiders. It is located in the eastern side. The name "Assam Himalaya" is misleading, as some parts of this range are in southeastern Tibet, while other parts are in Bhutan and the Indian regions and states of northern Assam.

Thank you.

Answer:

Assam Himalayas-eastern section of the Great Himalayas, extending eastward across Sikkim state (India) and Bhutan, into northern Assam and Arunachal Pradesh states (India), and along the border with the Tibet Autonomous Region (China). The mountains run eastward for 450 miles (720 km) from the upper Tista River in the west to the great southward bend of the Brahmaputra River (there called the Tsangpo River) in the east. Important peaks include Kula, Chomo, and Kangto; the highest is Namjagbarwa (Namcha Barwa; 25,445 feet [7,756 metres]) in Tibet. The Subansiri, Manas, Sankosh, Raidak, and Jaldhaka rivers rise in the mountains and flow southward to join the Brahmaputra. Main settlements in the region include Gangtok and Kalimpang in India and Punakha and Paro in Bhutan. Important mountain passes include Natu, Jelep, and Tang.

Purvachal Himalayas-also called Eastern Highlands, mountain ranges in eastern India. They extend over an area of about 37,900 square miles (98,000 square km) in Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, Tripura, and eastern Assam states. The Patkai and other associated mountain ranges (including the Mishmi, Naga, Manipur, Tripura, and Mizo hills) that run through this region are referred to collectively as Purvachal (purva, “east,” and achal, “mountain”). The area is bounded by Bangladesh to the southwest, Myanmar (Burma) to the southeast, and China to the northeast. The Hindu epic the Mahabharata has several references to the region. The Purvachal was ruled by the Ahoms from the beginning of the 13th century. It was occupied by the British in the last quarter of the 19th century.
