Today, Assam celebrates #KatiBihu. Earthen lamps glow in paddy fields & beneath tulsi plants, guiding ancestral spirits home. Let’s honour the Kumar community, whose hands shape soft earth into 'sakis' (diyas) — carrying the warmth of faith & light of tradition.

Assam’s pottery villages shape stories from clay — heritage, hope, & hands in harmony. Across the globe, places like Khurja in UP or Shigaraki,Japan are celebrated for such experiences. Assam stands as an equally rich and unexplored frontier for this form of tourism. #HappyDiwali

Ordered lunch at office, was delivered by young man on a motorised wheelchair, one that functions almost like a bike. #Zomato even called beforehand to ensure I’d be comfortable collecting it. (photo has been taken & shared with the permission of the delivery boy) #thankszomato

Assamese cuisine feels incomplete without 'pithas'. 'Tekeli Pitha', steamed on a humble kettle lid, blends generations of tradition with everyday simplicity. Soft, fragrant and best enjoyed with tea, it reflects Assam’s living culinary heritage. #TasteofAssam #TekeliPitha

Heartening to see Assam’s improving roads, driving growth, enhancing quality of life, and opening new pathways for tourism. Captured yesterday while passing through Teok, between Jorhat and Sivasagar. #Assam

Happy International Women’s Day. Sharing inspiring story of Mohura Ali near Numaligarh, a road built in 1939 by Assam’s first woman contractor, Mohini Rajkumari, who also appeared in Assam’s first film Joymoti. More than a road, it remains a powerful symbol of women’s empowerment

Could similar bottle collection cages be placed across cities, towns & villages of Assam? A simple idea that can help prevent plastic bottles from blocking drains, encourage recycling & keep our surroundings cleaner. Small steps can make a big difference. #CleanAssam
