It is an irony to see this is happening to Assamese youth who never spare a second to flash their latest mobiles,or motorbikes are so foolish to listen to their parents and visit such astrologers. Its a confused modernity.We are modern but still have faith that in shiny stones2change our future. Yes this time let us say clearly to our elders enough is enough.
