About the Eastern Himalayas

The Eastern Himalayan Region within the Indian subcontinent comprises the Darjeeling hills, Kalimpong hills, and the State of Sikkim. Although the lingua franca here is Nepali, the region is much diverse in community and dialect. These geographically diverse hills and plains have garnered accolades in the past as tourist accommodation, scenic setting for films, and the very image of serenity. 
However, as a vantage amidst mountains, rivers, and Nations, the region has brewed a community of folks with many stories worth sharing. Kathakokatha is a humble attempt to capture, critique, and digitally document written narratives from the region.
