Meghalaya or 'abode
of the clouds', is a source of inspiration
to any poet, a dramatic canvas for an
artist's dream, and the ideal retreat
for people in search of beauty and solitude.
Meghalaya is one of the most picturesque
states of India, offering a spectrum
of sylvan surroundings, rich cultural
heritage, misty heights, breathtakingly
beautiful waterfalls, luxurious vegetation,
flora and fauna.
Carved out of the former state of Assam,
Meghalaya is one of the seven
sister states of the North-Eastern
region, bordered by Assam in
the north and Bangladesh in the south.
Meghalaya is divided into five
administrative districts of the Jaintia
hills, East and West Garo
hills and East and West Khasi hills.
It is among the wettest places on earth
- little wonder that Meghalaya means,
Abode of Clouds. The state has a
picturesque colonial capital, Shillong,
and is home to an extraordinary diversity
of people, which includes the Khasi,
Jantia and Garo tribes.
Agriculture is the main occupation of
Meghalaya, with eighty three percent
of the total population, dependent on it
for their livelihood. |
