Dear Madam/Sirs,

I regret that I am writing this letter in regards to your abuse on Hasthir Kanya.

For your information, I used to attend Assam Day meetings that you had organized, prior to the start of Assam Day events. Sometimes I was present even before the beginning of the meetings and certainly I used to seat back after the end of the meetings. 

All I was wishing initially was to add a clip from Hasthir Kanya for the demo during your organized Assam Day, but I regret that you have abused Hasthir Kanya demonstrating your Kamrupi hate.

I would also like you to know that although I did not spell out before it had bled my mind instantly the first time I saw the two beheaded doles dressed female one looked pregnant, had been guarding the model of Assam and Northeast - I felt custom of Assam and Northeast was beheaded.

Two beheaded doles dressed female one looks pregnant are seen guarding the model of Assam & Northeast at ICC Milpitas, California, U.S.A. on Assam Day in April 18, 2004.

On March 30, at ICC, Monalisa did not answer my inquiry on - why she did not bother to communicate in regards to Hasthir Kanya, - but while Jugma responded for her I heard him raising his rate of vocal cord vibration.

  • What is it that made you all to develop such hate and disgust against Hasthir Kanya and me?
  • Is it something to do with my Kamrupi background, i.e., me not being a Jokaisukiya?
I apologize for any inconvenience that I caused with my repeated attempt to include a clip from Hasthir Kanya for a demo during your organized Assam Day.

Sincerely,

Dr. Rabin Deka

Hi Jonali ! 

Great initiative inspite of your busy schedule !!! 

Just FYI, Rohit and I are working on three themes to create 20X30 posters using Adobe Photoshop. They are - 

1) Assam - Paradise Unexplored 
2) Vaishnav art, crafts and culture
3) Fun, Festivities and Adventure 

It is very time consuming to create the posters. We are almost done with the first one. I personally do not see any issue if these themes are sort of repeated in other displays. It will be a second impression on the same theme. The decision is upto the individual on the best use of his/her time. 

As for the remaining two posters, we are still looking for high resolution digital photos on instruments like the doba, khol, taal, tribal costumes, festivities and dances, masks and xatra architecture. Many people have shared great photos with us and we'll be acknowledging all the sources (in fine print). Please help us with any leads on the items that we are still missing. 

Have fun with all the creations !! 

Monalisa

Hi Everyone, 

I have researched a little and I think I can do a few things for the NE month..... maybe a few portraits of assamese icons and maybe a few picture displays on different themes such as wildlife in assam, herbs in assam, dances of assam, things of assamese pride etc. I'll use my zoology knowledge and my artistic skills and will try to produce some good pieces of art. I would appreciate any help and feedback from you guys! 

I don't know what exactly I'm gonna do right now... I can probably tell you guys by the end of this week.... all I'll need in the NE month display forum is a few wall mounting spaces. 

As you know I'm also dancing Bihu, plus I go to school and always have tons of homework.... that's why I'm not sure how many items I'll be able to produce, but I'll sure try my best and also will try to let the group know what exactly I'm gonna do..... but I just need a few more days to finalize.
