Most remote district HQ in India — Dibang Valley with red pandas and Mehao Wildlife Sanctuary
Why Special
Anini is arguably India's most inaccessible district headquarters, deep in the Dibang Valley where roads are seasonal and infrastructure minimal. Mehao Wildlife Sanctuary shelters red pandas, and the surrounding Idu Mishmi tribal lands remain virtually untouched by tourism — true last-frontier territory.
