  Cleome genus includes 601 plant species from the family Cleomaceae. Of more than 600 plants, 206 (34.3%) plants are having accepted species names. Cleome gynandra Linn. is a well-known medicinal plant with traditional and pharmacological importance. A good number of secondary plant metabolites have also been isolated from different parts of C. gynandra. Our investigation confirms two mutant varieties of C. gynandra exists in India. Accordingly, the objective of this study was designed to critically evaluate the pharmacological and phytochemical evaluation of C. gynandra of two mutant variety, to provide a consolidated platform for research potential of both the mutant varieties of C. gynandra. Careful scrutiny reveals that the plant possesses a huge range pharmacological applications, such as anti-inflammatory, free radical scavenging, anticancerous, immunomodulator, and antidiabetic agents. To arrive its pharmacological importance the published papers also shown an enormous amount of phytochemicals endorsement. Scientific perusal reveals different parts of the plant has an immense medicinal importance which proofs its traditional use round the glove. But in North-Eastern region of India, the same plant abundantly found in pink mutant variety. To date, there is not much research investigation for this mutant variety to validate its pharmacological importance. Therefore, research needs to scrutinize and compare the medicinal claims of the pink mutant variety in the bio-diverse region of North-East India.

Econometric Approach

An understanding the linkage between human development and poverty in general and economic development in particular is very imperative in emerging economies in the globe. The objective of this paper is to study the regional variation and causality between human development and poverty in the north-east India. The major finding of this paper is that there exists significant regional variation between human development and poverty in the north eastern states of India. While human development is substantially high in Mizoram and Manipur, it is low in other states. On the contrary, poverty is very low in Mizoram and Manipur, while it is considerably high in other states. The estimated results confirmed that human development (and its individual indicators) has a significant role to alleviate poverty in the north east India.

Economic Ties

With the emergence of globalization, the need for economic integration has been realized by the international communities and lately by the Less Developed Countries (LDCs). Most of the countries both developed and less developed, have reoriented their development strategies to improve their growth performance by integrating their economies with the world economy. In this process, India has experienced some significant changes and the country is identified as one of the fastest growing economies in the world. In this direction, India’s Look East Policy is worth mentioning. Under this policy, India seeks economic cooperation with the ASEAN  and its neighbouring countries through North-Eastern Region (NER) of the country

Developmental issues of the North-Eastern States of India cannot be studied inisolation without accounting for the varied politico-socio-economic and institutional factors. This study covers a wide range of the socio-political issues and developmental gaps in the North-Eastern Region (NER) of India. It presents a broader picture and gives an understanding of the issues of governance and development prevailing in this region. Many issues pertain to paucity of developmental outcomes, ethnicity, demand for statehood, insurgency, absence of rule of law, corruption and so on, suggesting state’s ineffectiveness and people’s incompetence to take development to the front stage. An effort has also been made to trace the literature that deals with these issues.

Primary Means

Land is collectively owned and governed by the community among the Scheduled Tribe (ST) in the north-eastern region. As a result, households without land were less prominent among the ST households, than all-social groups, particularly in the ST-population-dominated states. Private land ownership has also evolved in recent times. Land is the basic resources and agriculture, especially shifting cultivation, is the primary means of livelihood for majority of them. ST households mostly cultivated a small and medium size of land rendering to a subsistence economy. Recently, a gradual relinquish from the dependence of agriculture for employment and livelihood is evident. Concurrently, agricultural income has significantly declined. Ironically, the region continues to produce inadequate food grains production that is insufficient to cater the rapidly growing population. Economy of STs revolves around a subsistence agricultural economy. Nevertheless, ST means of livelihood has converged towards diversified modern market-oriented employment and economy.

Quality education is crucial for growth and development of a nation. Teaching learningprocess worldwide which was disrupted by COVID-19 pandemic has found consolationthrough online remote teaching. Competency of teachers plays an important role in thesuccess of online teaching. The study was conducted in North Eastern region (NER) ofIndia to assess the faculty members’ competency in online teaching of agriculturalundergraduates. For the study, all the teachers of institutes in NER imparting undergraduatelevel degree course in Agriculture were selected. Online questionnaire was sent to all theteachers of which 75 responses were received, which formed the respondents of the study.Five online teaching competency dimensions were considered for the study. The respondentshad highest mean competency score in Teaching Ethics and lowest in Content Facilitation.Online teaching competency had significant and positive correlation with online teachingexperience; attitude towards online teaching; and organisational facilities & support. Thestudy recommends providing organizational facilities and support in the form of adequateinfrastructure and conducting trainings on awareness and usage of e-teaching resources andtools to improve the online teaching competency of the teachers.

This study is analysis of changes in rainfall fluctuation in North East India. Using the longest instrumental monthly rainfall data of well spread 316 stations across India available from Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM), the fluctuation characteristics as well as the spatial-temporal variability of the seasonal, monsoon monthly and annual rainfall pattern over the north eastern region of India (NER) have been examined. On an average, NER receives about 2450 mm of rainfall with 1093.0 mm as its annual evapo transpiration. The winter (JF) rainfall contributes 2.1% to the annual rainfall; summer (MAM) rainfall 24.3%; summer monsoon (JJAS) rainfall 65.1% and the post-monsoon (OND) rainfall contributes 8.5% to the annual rainfall. The region shows great variation in surface temperature regime (15oC to 32oC in summer and 0 to 26oC in winter). The spatial-temporal rainfall variability shows random fluctuating characteristics of expansion / contraction of desert area but overall it is showing a slight decreasing over the NER as well as whole India.
