My sincere condolences to Sjt. Bhuyan's family. A few years back we had the pleasure of meeting him and hosting him and his son at our home here in St. Louis. Since that time Sjt, Bhuyan kept in touch via e-mail and collaborated with some of our efforts, most notably on the effort to block the Assam Govt's bid to change Assam's ( Oxom's) name to Asom.
He was an illustrious person with a deep interest in Assam's history and its welfare. May his soul rest in peace. cm On Jun 11, 2011, at 8:08 PM, Manoj Das wrote: > RIP Bijoyda.
