Book Overview
The Naga Hills are home to simple, intelligent, proud people with a rich culture, faith, and a deep sense of love. Living in a close-knit democratic society, they possess their own unique moral codes and traditions. My association with the Nagas began in 1951, and during my four-year tenure in the region, I formed lasting friendships and a deep affection for them. Sharing their joys and sorrows, I earned their trust-even among hostiles-and embraced the challenge of solving their diverse difficulties, often playing the role of a confidant and advisor.
This experience gave me the confidence to address delicate matters and shaped my understanding of their lives, culture, and concerns. My fondness for tribal communities traces back to my childhood, accompanying my father to the central provinces where my grandfather, a deputy commissioner, served the nation. My early bond with tribal residents grew stronger through my command of Gurkha and Garhwali troops, and later, while serving in Assam. Living with these communities allowed me to adopt their philosophy and deepen my commitment to serving them with love and dedication to the nation.
