- :
- :
- : A glimpse into the intricacies and challenges of governing remote and overlooked areas in the North East 'Balagopal, this is Kerala. This is not Manipur!' This was a refrain that I often heard and was something that I only gradually came to understand. It was clearly based on the unstated premise that Manipur belonged to a region that was quite different from the rest of India, where presumably even the laws were different (not true) and where the administration approached issues from a very different perspective (quite true). Using notes and diaries from his days as an IAS officer, C. Balagopal presents a collection of anecdotes from his brief sojourn in Manipur nearly three decades ago.
