Contents:

Introduction / David R. Syiemlieh -- A note on the future of the present excluded, partially excluded and tribal areas of Assam / Robert N. Reid -- A note on the future of the hill tribes of Assam and the adjoining hills in a self-governing India / James P. Mills -- The future government of the Assam tribal peoples / Andrew G. Clow -- Some notes on a policy for the hill tribes of Assam / Philip F. Adams.

Summary: In the closing years of the British rule in India, a secret plan was conceived and discussed at the highest circles for a crown colony comprising the hill areas of North East India and the tribal areas of Burma. The plan could not be implemented largely because it came up for discussion in the closing years of the British rule over India. The plan has been referred to in many publications. What was of concern was that scholars have made reference to the Crown Colony Plan/Protectorate without reading the actual texts. <div style=""text-align: justify;""
