Abstract

The formation of hill towns and cities in the eastern part of Indian Himalayas was closely associated with the colonial occupation of the region (Giri in Urbanisation in Eastern Himalayas: Emergences and issues. Serials Publication, New Delhi, pp. 25–41, 2006). Important urban centres such as Aizawl and Lunglei in Mizoram; Kohima and Mokokchung in Nagaland; Shillong and Cherrapunji in Meghalaya were British military outposts during the colonial period (Saitluanga in Urbanisation and regional development in Northeast India. Mittal Publications, New Delhi, 2014a
