Abstract: The use of the term "Northeast" is itself problematic as the region represents a varied cultural mosaic and has never considered itself to be one compact unit. One has to recognize that there are many different communities in the region and the dynamics of each single movement have to be taken care of, if any solution is to be achieved. The experience so far with private sector participation in hydro power is also not encouraging in the energy security of Northeastern States. Increasing demand for energy may necessitate a re-look at the present policy regime regarding investment hydro project. Transforming Northeastern States is still as distant dream of Northeast. In this context it is imperative to examine whether the existing development strategy is suitable for NER or is there any new strategy for development. The paper also tries to highlight the issues and challenges confronting Northeastern Region development strategy.
