Ever head of an outfit that “Rescues Writers” from across the globe? Believe me, there is one. The Walnut Discoveries Private Limited is the world’s only such company that saves the poets, lyricists, writers, novelists and film directors who could not make them big in their repeated efforts, thus ending up as depressed souls.

Nobody could have ever imagined that a young man in his forties who had just managed to form a Government with 19 MLAs in 1994 would go on to become India’s longest serving Chief Minister. There were reasons behind our doubts. Let me enumerate some of the reasons why he had very little chance to really plant his feet as Sikkim’s strongest political leader.

The growth of blended culture in this region grown particularly in the areas of language, art and religion is due to the continuous process of assimilation of various races, castes and creeds of local people, invaders and migrated people. Dhubri 
District is bounded both by inter-state and International border West Bengal and Bangladesh in the west, Goalpara and Bogaigoan district of Assam, Garo Hills district of Meghalaya in the east, Kokrajhar district in the North, Bangladesh and state of Meghalaya in the south. The name Dhubri believed to have been derived from Netai Dhubuni , a washer woman mentioned in Padma Puran and Kalika Puran. It is known from the tale of Chand Sadagar, where the main character of the legendary folk tales called Netai used to wash the clothes of God and Goddess of heaven on the bank of the river Brahmaputra.

HJ : Congratulations on becoming the youngest Chief Minister of Meghalaya? What are your priorities and how will you take things ahead?
CS : First it is very important to ensure that we start to improve the overall work culture and governance. Delivering accountability, basic administrative work 
culture needs to improve. I am not saying it’s bad but I just feel it can improve. First I will ensure that we try to inculcate positive attitude and also try to ensure that whatever steps we can take from our side to get governance, efficiency and have suffered specially students. I am not saying we can change everything in one day or one year because it’s a very complicated issue but our effort will be there and a lot of attention will be paid to education. Other social sectors like health are very critical to us.
