Northeastern Emergency Confederation (Removed)

A prior version created a constitutional Northeastern Emergency Confederation — a joint governance structure for northeastern states activating if the Siliguri Corridor were severed during military conflict.

Removed on political-communication grounds. Regardless of its defensive strategic intent, any constitutional provision pre-designing governance for India's northeast in the event of connectivity loss will be characterised — accurately in political messaging terms — as constitutional preparation for secession. The political cost exceeds the constitutional benefit.

The Siliguri Corridor contingency is addressed instead through a classified defence-ministry operational plan — functionally equivalent without creating constitutional text that opponents can weaponise. The Type 1, 3 and 4 frameworks of the proposed emergency architecture provide adequate authority for any actual connectivity-loss scenario.
