Region of northern India (5)

I believe the answer is:

assam

(Other definitions for assam that I've seen before include "place associated with tea" , "Indian tea growing area" , "Tea-producing Indian state" , "Indian tea-producing region" , "State in northeastern India" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate.
