Entire NE has the potential to become the rice bowl of India.NE has some potential in 3 sector IMHO
1) Hydropower
2) Tourism
3) Border area trade
However, in order for all these to work well we need to have a conducive environment and I don't see that happening in my lifetime for sure. One senior government guy once said NE is just a black hole of India, sometimes you just don't know what is happening there
If only they chose to put in a little effort. The younger generation would rather move out and work at salons, eateries and as store sales staff in metropolitan cities.
Potential of horticulture and agriculture is vastly under achieved in the North East.
