We present NE-BERT, a domain-specific multilingual encoder model trained on approximately 8.3 million sentences spanning 9 Northeast Indian languages and 2 anchor languages (Hindi, English), a linguistically diverse region with minimal representation in existing multilingual models. By employing weighted data sampling and a custom SentencePiece Unigram tokenizer, NE-BERT outperforms IndicBERT-V2 and MuRIL across all 9 Northeast Indian languages, achieving 15.97X and 7.64X lower average perplexity respectively, with 1.50X better tokenization fertility than mBERT. We address critical vocabulary fragmentation issues in extremely low-resource languages such as Pnar (1,002 sentences) and Kokborok (2,463 sentences) through aggressive upsampling strategies. Downstream evaluation on part-of-speech tagging validates practical utility on three Northeast Indian languages. We release NE-BERT, test sets, and training corpus under CC-BY-4.0 to support NLP research and digital inclusion for Northeast Indian communities.
