After a long time, read a book on something utterly unfamiliar—and fascinating. Dr. Jogendra Nath Sharma’s gripping account takes you through Alfred Wegener’s polar expeditions and how a weatherman birthed the theory of plate tectonics. A beautifully written must-read.

A 1910 US Army canteen discovered in a remote village near Margherita—possibly left behind during WWII when American troops moved through Assam.

A familiar subject, yet filled with utterly unfamiliar anecdotes and attributions. Despite more than dozens of books already written on the topic, my dear friend Ratan has produced a seminal work backed by serious research.

Silently followed this Doctor over a decade, never met him, he won’t allow it. Literally lives in JMCH ward. A bachelor who serves poor from 7 AM, spending most of his salary on patients. He is Surgeon Dr. SADAGAR DEURI. If selflessness has a name—it’s his. The poor call him God.

We have now five verticals, suggestions are welcome. @UtpalBorpujari
In 12087 Shatabdi - Vistadome coach is called EV and AC coach is -CC while in 12047 JanShadabdi, normal AC coach is called EV, can @RailMinIndia @RailNf help us to understand this? Each passenger is paying is Rs 345 extra for same route, same day, same pair of stations.
Can @RailNfexplain why Shatabdi (12087) charges ₹740 from VNE to GHY, while Jan Shatabdi (12047) charges ₹1085 for the same route? Shatabdi has better CC coaches, Jan Shatabdi AC coaches are inferior and call them EV. How does this make sense? @RailMinIndia

One might chuckle, but I truly felt 'the Halo' around His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Met him twice while writing ‘1962’—meant to ask about the 1959 dinner invite from Chinese Gen Zhang Jingwu. Never could. His aura just silences you. All I came back with was his signature.


Nice to see Summer Interns enjoying at Digitizing Assam Project.
