As Sikkim and Arunachal Pradesh election results reaffirmed BJP and SKM's grip, a larger question looms - the racial divide plaguing the Northeast. We discussed this pressing issue with Hon. Advocate Hriata Chhangte, exploring the roots of discrimination based on language and complexion. He shed light on the deep-seated biases and proposed measures to bridge the great divide. With diverse communities calling the region home, can the new governments take concrete steps to foster inclusivity and harmony?

Recent bypolls across seven Indian states resulted in significant gains for the opposition INDIA bloc, which won 10 out of 13 assembly seats.
