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.

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.
