"Documents constitute the backbone of any serious or objective study. Their relevance in the proliferation of knowledge can hardly be ignored. While gazing into the past, one finds that enormous source material has appeared pertaining to multifarious aspects of North-East India. All such invaluable material helps the researchers and others to reconstruct the past in a conclusive manner. It also stimulates to know the fields that still remain uncovered and the source material that is unexplored till now.
