    Tour Summary This is a multi- activity tour that takes you to explore the eastern Himalayan region of Arunachal Pradesh, the easternmost tip of India, a meeting point of the major tributaries of the river Brahmaputra, wherefrom the Brahmaputra valley is born. Surrounded by the Himalayan mountain ranges and the Patkai Range on three sides and Brahmaputra valley on the other, this region is historically the home of numerous ethnic tribes. Ethnically, culturally and linguistically these tribes are closer to those of its eastern neighbouring countries than to the Indian mainland. Each one of these tribes are unique in their language, food, textile pattern, headgear, machetes etc, but yet so distinct with strong Mongoloid features, tight knit society and their nonchalant ease in and around the forests. A large percentage of the population still depends on the forests and its periphery for survival. This tour will take you from the lower reaches of the Dibang Valley towards the wide and fertile Lohit Valley across territories of the Idu, Khamti, Miju, Chakma, Singpho and Tangsa tribes to name a few. Biking, Hiking, Village visits, Local food, Market visits, Wildlife sanctuaries etc will be the activities during this 12 day tour. Day 1. Dibrugarh to Roing Arrive at Dibrugarh airport, where our representative will meet you and then transfer to Roing by car (155 km / 5 hrs). The drive is a pleasant one as you cross the lush green tea plantations and rural Assam. Cross the river Lohit on a country boat and reach Roing by evening. Day 2.

  • Kerala Botanists Discover Two New Ginger Species in Arunachal
    www.biovoicenews.com Kerala botanists discover two new ginger species in Arunachal https://www.biovoicenews.com/kerala-botanists-discover-two-new-ginger-species-in-arunachal/ By : BioVoice Correspondent - July 5, 2018 By Nivedita Khandekar New Delhi: Ginger not only adds some spice to Indian food but is also an important medicinal plant. Now a team of researchers from Kerala has discovered two new species of ginger in the biodiversity hotpsot of the Northeast. The new species have been found in Arunachal Pradesh. One of them, named Amomum nimkeyense (Zingiberaceae), was found in Lohit district while the other named Amomum riwatchii (Zingiberaceae) in the neighbouring Dibang Valley district. The first has been named to pay respect to a sacred abode of a spirit invoked by Mishmi community of the Lohit district and the second to acknowledge the work by an organisation in the field of biodiversity conservation in Dibang Valley district – Research Institution of World Ancient, Traditional, Culture and Heritage (RIWATCH). “It was accidental discovery. We were going around in wild forest near this Tiding area (in Lohit district) scouting. So far, this species was not found anywhere else. Locals too are not using it,” mentioned the lead researcher Mamiyil Sabu from the Department of Botany, University of Calicut at Kerala. “This species is restricted to a very small area. It is vulnerable 1 / 3 www.biovoicenews.com to damage due to landslides etc.” RIWATCH executive director Vijay Anna Swami said “Nimke is the sacred place between Tiding and Parshuram Kund on the banks of Lohit river. It is the place of resting of the spirit invoked by nature worshipping Miju Mishmi community at the start of their rituals.” In India, Amomum – a herb of the ginger family – is represented by 22 species distributed in North-East India, Southern Peninsular India and the Andaman and Nicobar Islands with the major centre of distribution in North-East India.
