Abstract: The paper deals with the above issues by analyzing the scenario in NEI, as to how the region with its present status fits into the LEP regime. In this regard, the contemporary macroeconomic fundamentals, the trade pattern, aspects related to liberalization and integration of both external and internal markets are discussed. In the process, the paper also looks at the perception of the people towards Look East Policy (LEP) in the borderlands of the region. But prior to that, we deal with the aspect of ‘borderless’ world and the relative imperatives attached to it. In the concluding section we highlight the emerging trends in NEI vis-à -vis the LEP/AEP that leads to an ‘obfucated’ vision.
