I was the part of the night and it was a wonderful experience being there. A bunch of enthusiastic people trying to keep the "Real Asom" in their heart staying away from home even in these busy days. I salute to all those parents who kept the assamese culture alive in the heart of their kids... Jai Aai Asom...
