Showing India how wonderful the National Anthem can be when given a new Avtar in local dialect accompanied by regional musical instruments, Meghalaya has clocked a new history on September 14, 2021 when the state’s Legislative Assembly was hummed by it in Khasi-Garo way.

It was recorded at Marqbac Studios of Shillong. What is most important, the Khasi-Garo version of Jana Gana Mana….has now come to be known as the Meghalaya-Style National Anthem thus creating a history of sorts in musical way. This will inspire other states also to follow Meghalaya.

The time has ripened when Rahul Gandhi together with Priyanka must search for a magic wand and hand it over to Sonia Gandhi to solve problems plaguing the oldest political party Congress, plagued by multiple ills, some like Punjab being the first among them.

A hot political Punjabi Tadka now is being fied in the troubled kitchen of Congress just four months before the legislative assembly polls due in the state in February, 2022. Apparently, every political quarter is busy with it but not the Nehru-Gandhi family as is being viewed widely.

An impartial political look at the whole development within the Congress would make people realize that the Interim party President Sonia Gandhi and de facto President Rahul Gandhi appears to be creating grounds for the third term of Narendra Modi as the Prime Minister as the Lok Sabha polls is due in 2024.

For the first time in Assam, civil administration and police went out to arrest the land brokers operating under the well-knit land mafia led to put as many as 520 land brokers behind the bar. The target list of land brokers were 700, but limited to 520, as many of them picked up were later found having no linkage with illegal land deal.

Land brokers across Assam not only grabbed the government khas land but also encroached upon satras, namghar, and debattar land of temples allegedly converting the name of individuals in connivance with circle and revenue officers.

What has come about the other day that is on the fateful afternoon of September 9, in the mighty Brahmaputra in full spate at Nimatighat near Jorhat is something horrid, a tragic boat accident in which scores of passengers are feared drawn in the river. The mishap has occurred when an ill-fated ferry coming from Kamalbari Ghat in Majuli collided with one proceeding towards the river island.

        The tragic ferry accident has once again exposed the lack of safety measures which used to carry passengers safe over the Brahmaputra, particularly the rainy season when the river is in menacingly high spate as is now, as also the seemingly offhand manner in which both our State Government and the Inland Water Transport department are running the services.
