North East India often referred to as Paradise Unexplored is among the only region in India where the scenic beauty and the natural resources etc are yet to be explored. But the region is sadly explored quite well by the insurgents. Every NE state is plagued with insurgency problems. Yes, the reason for the rise of insurgency vary from states to states. While the insurgency in some states are fighting for development and recognition, while some others are fighting for their own rights to self determination. However the purpose of this post is not to discuss the reason for the rise of insurgencies in the region, but to throw a light on the fatalities that the region had suffered due to insurgency problem over the period.

In the last sixteen years, from 2000 to 2015 there have been a total of 12,219 insurgency related killings in the region. Out of these 5087 people are civilians, 1121 security personnel and 6011 insurgents.
