Literature from North East India (Assamese: উত্তৰ-পূৱ ভাৰতৰ সাহিত্য) refers to literature of Languages of North East India, and also the body of work by English-language writers from this region. North-East India is an under-represented region in many ways.〔(Strength and Public Presence of Women in Northeast India )〕 The troubled political climate, the beautiful landscape and the confluence of various ethnic groups perhaps have given rise to a body of writing that is completely different from Indian English Literature.〔(‘Political’ Literature of India’s North East Frontier, by Manjeet Barua )〕 North-East India was a colonial construct and continues to be one by virtue of having a historically difficult relationship with the Indian nation state.〔‘Political’ Literature of India’s North East Frontier' by Manjeet Barua〕 ==Debates surrounding the term North East== However, there is no single definition of the phrase Literature from North East India as the diversity of this region defies easy definition. Broadly, this phrase refers mostly to English writing but may also include Assamese Literature and writings in the Manipuri language, that have long traditions of writing and stand on their own with a glorious legacy. Many writers such as Harekrishna Deka〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Blogger )〕 and Temsula Ao have expressed discomfit with the term North-East India and North Eastern writers, respectively.〔(Voices from North East, ''Sentinel'' )〕 A section also strongly argue that the term is colonial and hence, an artificial construct. There is nothing called a "north-easterner" and the concept is purely geographical; it tends to homogenise an extremely heterogeneous cluster of people as there exists no common history and heritage of the people in North-East India〔("Northeast" Identity: an Artificial Construct )〕 though formerly the current states of Arunachal Pradesh, Mizoram and Meghalaya used to be constituent states of former British Assam.
