The Act East Policy and India's North East

The Look East Policy was renamed the Act East policy by the Indian government in an effort to strengthen its cultural, strategic, and economic ties to East and Southeast Asia. The Act East policy was initiated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the 12th East Asian summit in Myanmar in November 2014. Strengthening strategic ties and the culture of economic development are the main goals of the Act East policy, which aims to advance the nation's remote Northeast. The four pillars of the Act East Policy are culture, connectivity, commerce, and capacity building. An effort has been made in this study to comprehend the main goals of the Act East Policy and how it affects northeastern India.
