I have appeared Neel's second annual school day on 5th December 2019. I was happy and enthusiastic to appear in the annual day auditorium venue at District Libray, Guwahati, Assam. It was a colorful arrangement thonged with teachers, parents, invited dignitaries. All tiny kids dressed differently to perform different events. Kids were delighted inside the auditorium with their parents, teachers and other guests. Neel was much excited to have me and his mother together to his school event. Neel's all-time favorite friend Mr.Sarik and his other peers surrounded us and complement each other.  The theme of the program was the Our Own Culture and the annual day program was designed traditionally.

Eye of Elephant  Neel often finds the opportunity to visit National Parks and encounter wildlife. Recently Neel earned lots of adventurous experiences to visit in Manas National Park. It was the last week of September and the day was raining. The day was cold and we took a jeep with a rooftop. Usually, wild animals are active in pleasant (slightly cold with rain) weather. The elephant, rhino are normally inactive full noon on a sunny day. and they are observing to act in actively the early morning and evening.

Neel was so excited to locate the elephant herd. He loves to see small elephant claves playing with older ones. We stopped our jeep on a safe distance and enjoy the behavior of the elephant herd. I request Neel not to make noise as the elephant able to detect very-low-f...

Dhemaji M.V. School            In the first September 2019, Neel visited his father's house in Dhemaji. Dhemaji is situated in the northeasternmost corner of Assam. The place is situated in the north bank of the river Brahmaputra and one of the beautiful place in North East India. The entire geographical areas of Dhemaji is crisscrossed by several rivers so flood is a perennial problem in this area. Besides, Dhemaji has many pre-medieval and medieval period historical sites. Malinithan, Habong, Botikur, Maskhowa, Narowathan, Nagakhelia, Chowkham, Silapathar etc are some examples.   Miko and Neel (right back) During colonial period Dhemaji is part of greater North Lakhimpur District with headquarter at Dibrugarh.

Previously, educated people from the South Bank visited this place for promotion of education, business, etc.  Neels, Great ...

Helicopter Parenting: let free our child to develop their own

Helicopter Parenting or Cosseting Parent or simply Cosseter is modern aged parenting terminology.  This metaphor of parenting was appeared as early as 1969 in the best selling book  "Between Parents and Teenagers" by Dr. Haim Ginott. Who mentioned briefly about mother hovering to her child alike helicopter. Later on, Foster Cline and Jim Fay coined the term 'Helicopter Parenting' in the year 1990.   Helicopter parenting means a parent who takes overprotective or excessive interest in the life of their child. Since there is no limit to how much people will do for their kid but still it requires a certain limit.

Fatherhood is a Brilliant Experience

Fatherhood is a brilliant experience . Though this relationship is not discussed as much as compared to motherhood. 'Fatherhood' may be a divine creation. I am fortunate enough that I am a father of five years energetic, inquisitive kid (Neel). I would like to elaborate some of my lively moments with my son Neel. I often stay outside due to the profession. I am a conservationist and wildlife biologist. So my job profile indicated my limited time for a son. However, when I reached home I invariably spent time with Neel. I spent almost 80% of the time with Neel at my home. I try to obey Neel's every command and request. We play, sing, arranging our rooms, looking clouds in the azure sky or sometimes bright moonlight and stars at night.  I love to pick Neel's tiny fingers on an evening stroll as I love to pick my departed father's finger in my childhood. We enjoy our ' MeTime ' running on the road, playing basketball, creating pebble a...

Happy Earth Day 2019.

When a species goes extinct, it disappears from its ecosystem, leaving ripple effects on the species left behind. Once this has happened there is no turning back and the extinct species is lost to the world forever. In consideration of World Earth Day-2019 motto 'Protect Our Species',  I would like to appeal everyone to join hands together to protect our threatened species of the Earth for our all-new generations. There are countless reasons why it is important to protect the huge variety of species on our planet. They have enormous value to humans, the other plants and animals in their ecosystems. Let’s raise your voice and contribute to protecting our threatened flora and fauna.
