How to reach
(ii) Take a shared Taxi from Airport to NEHU campus, or take a shared Taxi/ Sumo from the Railway station to NEHU Campus. (Most taxis go to town and NEHU Campus is out of the way, so the taxis charge some extra money say Rs. 100 in addition to usual fare),
(iii) Your accommodation is booked at the ICSSR guest Hose in the NEHU Campus, near the New NEHU Guest House.
