Presence of Vibrant Assam at Greater Noida

Assam's presence was felt by one and all at Ishan Institute of management and Technology, Greater Noida (Dt. Gautam Budh Nagar) Uttar Pradesh by a beautiful performance of Bihu Dance by assamese students of the Institute at the 13th Foundation Day celebration of the Institute. The ceremony was held on 11th August, 2007 at the Institute's auditorium.The group effort by the Seniors and juniors of the Institute didnot go unnoticed even by the District Magistrate of Gautam Budh Nagar District, Mr. A.V.Rajamouli.

It is quite amazing that the participants are only a month old at the Institute where they have got admission for the PGDBM programmes. It was made possible by the senior students like Roopam Das and Barsha Mahanta who had coordinated the entire thing including arrangement of the costumes. The participants, Ajoy Dutta Medhi, Nilkamal Patowary, Nibir Barman, Pritom Goswami, Shankhali Bhattacharjee, Sushmit Kamal Malakar, Pravol Adholia, Priyanka Das, Priyanka Baruah, Jahnobi Sonowal, Begum Sakina Sultana left no stone unturned to represent their state in full colour and vibrancy.It was the major attraction of the day and was appreciated by one and all. With this kind of enthusiasm by the young boys and girls, we hope to see much more of Assam and its culture not only in other parts of the country but around the world too..

It was year 1988 and it was my maiden flight. The sun was setting even as the small aircraft flew over the Brahmaputra River and prepared to descend at Gauhati airport. Nature painted its own masterpiece with the golden rays of the sun falling on the meandering river below. It was and still is the best sunset I have seen in my life. But as much as I wanted to capture it on my camera (I believe that I am a reasonable camera person), I couldnot do since I didnot possess any... I was just a Xth std student, on my way back home from Kolkata after my holidays. But, neverthless, I captured the moment in my heart and mind. The golden sunset over the river had such an effect on me that I couldnot...
The North East: Unknown, remote, exotic and barbaric. Land of the dog-eating, half naked, gun-toting tribal. And the best of all is that, it is a region to be regarded as a museum piece, a subject for anthropological study. Landing at Delhi, I was bombarded with many humiliating clinches: Do you live in tree houses? Do you worship the same Gods as us? Are your Women promiscuous? Do you also take drugs? For all students coming to Delhi from North-East, the branding is almost automatic. It was quite a shock to me. The first thing people must recognise is that the North East comprises not one but several cultures. Each state has its own rich and distinct cultures. The rest of the country has...
