The DMMU Pangin Cluster comprises the districts of East Siang, Siang, and Upper Siang—an expansive region characterized by rugged, mountainous terrain and diverse topography. The name of this region is inspired by the mighty Siang River, which originates as the Tsangpo in Tibet and flows majestically through these districts before descending into the Assam plains south of Pasighat. There, it converges with the Dihang and Lohit rivers to become the Brahmaputra.

Geographically, this cluster shares an international boundary with China to the north, West Siang District to the west, and Lower Dibang Valley to the east.

East Siang District
Pasighat, the administrative headquarters of East Siang, holds the distinction of being the oldest town in Arunachal Pradesh, established in 1911. Often referred to as "The Gateway to Arunachal Pradesh," Pasighat serves as a key urban center in the region.

Siang District
Boleng, the district headquarters of Siang, lies along the banks of the Siang River and is located approximately 100 kilometers from Pasighat. The district derives its name from the Siang River, which is locally known as the Brahmaputra.

Upper Siang District
Yingkiong, the administrative headquarters of Upper Siang, is located about one kilometer east of the Siang River and lies approximately 380 kilometers north of the state capital, Itanagar. It serves as the central hub of administration and connectivity in this remote yet vibrant district.

The People
The dominant community across East Siang, Siang, and Upper Siang districts is the Adi tribe. This indigenous group comprises several sub-tribes, including the Minyongs, Padams, Simongs, Milangs, Pasis, Karkos, Pangis, and Membas, among others. These sub-tribes each maintain their distinct cultural identities while sharing linguistic and ancestral heritage, forming the rich socio-cultural fabric of the region.
