Lushai Hills - LoveToKnow 1911 (262 words) |
 | LUSHAI HILLS, a mountainous district of Eastern Bengal and Assam, south of Cachar, on the border between Assam and Burma. |
| The hills are for the most part covered with dense bamboo jungle and rank undergrowth; but in the eastern portion, owing probably to a smaller rainfall, open grass-covered slopes are found, with groves of oak and pine interspersed with rhododendrons. |
| The management of the South Lushai hill country was transferred from Bengal to Assam in 1898. |
| Mizoram (1390 words) |
| It is bounded on the north by the district of Cachar (Assam) and the state of Manipur, on the east and south by Chin Hills and Arakan (Myanmar) on the west by the Chittagong hill tracts of Bangladesh and the state of Tripura. |
| The hills are steep and are separated by rivers which flow either to the north or the south creating deep gorges between the hill ranges. |
| The fascinating hills and lakes of Mizo-land literally pulsate and resound with the rhythms of the sonorous songs of the youths and the twang of guitars everywhere. |
