REGIONAL, July 31, 2025: The National Archives of India is partnering with the Nagaland government to host an exhibition on 'Development of Education in North Eastern India' on August 8. The exhibition will explore the region's unique journey, influenced by tribal traditions, linguistic diversity, missionary influences, colonial legacies and post-independence development. 

The exhibition will highlight key milestones in the region's academic landscape, including the establishment of premier institutions and policy initiatives that have fostered inclusivity and regional growth. The exhibition will categorize this heritage through thematic clusters, drawing on original archival documents such as government files, private papers, photographs, rare manuscripts and official records preserved within the National Archives and Nagaland State Archives. 

The National Archives of India, an attached office under the Ministry of Culture, has a collection of over 34 crore pages of Public Records, including files, volumes, maps, bills, treaties, rare manuscripts, oriental records, private papers, cartographic records and travel accounts.
