Dear
Friends,
Here we, the teachers of Tinsukia College are presenting a quarterly journal for you to read. The name of the journal is PRAGYAN. We have been publishing it since August, 2003. With the last March, 08 issue we have completed 5 years of its existence. Present one is Vol.1, I-1 i.e. 6th year, 1st issue and with this we have launched a blog here (please click) :

It was not an easy tusk to continue such a venture in a college in Assam where not a single public funded educational institute is running well. There is so many constrains which need not to be mentioned. All the learned people, like you, are well aware of these. Frustration and Depression are buzzwords in these institutes. We, the faculties of Tinsukia College, have chosen to do something positive to fight back. We are trying to change the scenario to the extent that we can. We are doing many more things. One of these is PRAGYAN.
Here, our friends are from different school of thought and ideology. It was hard to get all of us united behind a single project like this .But we did it. The only commitment we have is to try something good & positive. And the result is here. Pragyan survived for five years. It’s not very long time; neither have we claimed that our work is too qualitative to tell. But for a non-professional and non-profit venture like ours it’s not a short period either. It’s unique, in a sense that it’s now motivating other colleges of Upper Assam to follow the suit. We’ll be happy enough if your supportive criticism encourages many more educational institutes of the state and the North East Region to accompany us.
If you remember, in an earlier mail we have made our presence felt in this yahoo group and asked for your kind intellectual support. We have reprinted a few text of yours with due acknowledgment. We hope you will not mind for that. We thought through these both of us, the Pragyan and the yahoo group—Assam Digest, will be benefited. If you don’t like that, please, be kind to let us know. We will be politely happy to discontinue such practices in future.
We will be happy to have your suggestions, criticisms & writings in our future publications. Next one will go to press within a few days and will come up in the month of November, 08.
Good Night!
