<p>The furthest east that the Buddha traveled was to Kajaṅgalā (noted in <a href="https://suttacentral.net/pi/an10.28" rel="nofollow">AN 10:28</a>). This area is known today as Kankjol, and is located near the border of India and Bangladesh. So there's no record of any visit to Northeast India, but anything is possible!</p>
