Rongali Bihu Cultural Night,Q8

We had an entertaining and wonderful evening last Friday(14th of May). We celebrated our Rongali Bihu Cultural Night which was held at Asia Asia’s Royal Ball Room.
 The Ambassador of India, Shr Ajai Malhotra along with his wife Ira Malhotra graced the occasion. An exhibition of Assamese artifacts and the paintings from the drawing competition was show-cased for the first time. Our annual magazinr JETUKA was also released by his excellency on that day. The dance performances by our kids, songs by the ladies and bihu by both ladies and gents were appreciated by all. And finally the electrifying and wonderful performance by Manas Robin made it an evening to remember. I was part of the chorus and Bihu dance…..was little nervous but all went well.
