This volume documents the multi-faceted conflicts and contestations around water in Northeast India, analyses their causes and consequences, and includes expert recommendations. It fills a major gap in the subject by examining wide-ranging issues such as cultural and anthropological dimensions of damming rivers in the Northeast and Eastern Himalayas; seismic surveys, oil extractions and water conflicts; discontent over water quality and drinking-water; floods, river bank erosion, embankments; water policy; transboundary water conflicts; and hydropower development.
