    Book Review

    Rendezvous with Rebels is the passionate account of Rajeev Bhattacharyya’s daring journey to the rebel bases in Myanmar’s Sagaing Division where several separatist outfits from India’s troubled Northeast have established a presence. He stayed at the camp of the anti-talks faction of the United Liberation Front of Assam (ULFA) headed by chief of staff Paresh Baruah, who happens to be one of the most wanted men in India. Bhattacharyya, along with a fellow journalist Pradip Gogoi, spent close to four months completing their assignment in the tough and forbidden terrain to interview Baruah and the chairman of the Khaplang faction of the Nationalist Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN-K), S. S. Khaplang.
