RE: [Assam] Jokai India Limited
Alpana Baideo: Jokai is definitely an Assamese word. Jokai India Limited is in Tea business and owns many TEs. Though it is a Indian Company (In fact multi-national), it took Assamese name because of Tea and working in Assam. BTW, the company changed name to Russel Industries (India) Ltd about 12 years ago.

RE: [Assam] Jokai India Limited
Thanks for the explanation, Ganesh. It makes complete sense to name the company if it is originated and that too witha product from Assam - the famou Assam tea. Too bad, it changed the name though. Hope you are doing well. You must be eagerly waiting for this month to be over. Stop by at our place when you all go to Dallas - just give me enough time (like, two months :))so that I can tidy up the house. With best wishes, - Alpana B'deu.
