Abstract
In this study, the role of India’s Buddhist circuit in reshaping North East India’s tourism industry is explored. Manipur has eight mandalas. The paper found that mandala is a niche tourism product and promotion of mandala tourism is a divergent series of investment and will create forward linkages. There is high likelihood of increasing income and employment opportunities being achieved by North East India. For that, reestablishing and reconnection of ASEAN members with North East India through cross-border economic and cultural integration will be a good policy through coopetition such as exploiting, exploring, bridging, sharing and boundary spanning. It will bring closer economic and cultural ties between ASEAN and India and in the economic development of North East India.
