Natun Padatik : An Assamese Monthly Dedicated to Literature, Culture and Society.
For the last several decades in Assam, Natun Padatik has been acting as a wide platform for serious deliberations about social issues and about building up a better as well as more egalitarian world. It has constantly endeavored to offer meaningful contribution to the humanity's struggle against injustice, deprivation, ethnic and religious intolerance, oppression, war and terrorism. Contributions (in Assamese) reflecting such aspects - whether essays, reports, stories, translations, poems, etc. - are particularly welcome.
