NEZINE : A bilingual online magazine in English and Assamese focusing on India's Northeast region : http://nezine.com/
NEZINE is an online magazine focusing on India’s Northeast region. It makes efforts to bridge the information gap on the region – a repository of traditional knowledge, a bio-diversity hotspot and a living museum of cultural diversities. We generate and publish content that add to a state-of-the-art digital archive of quality information about the region. NEZINE will provide a platform for publication of news, features and articles on wide-ranging subjects and issues which will help its visitors derive their own notions about the region instead of looking at it through fixed frames of perception about its geography, history, society, culture and tradition. ‘নিজাইন’ ভাৰতৰ উত্তৰ পূৰ্বাঞ্চলৰ ওপৰত বিশেষভাবে আলোকপাত কৰাৰ উদ্যেশ্যে জন্ম হোৱা এখন অনলাইন আলোচনী। এই আলোচনীখনৰ মাজেৰে পৰম্পৰাগত জ্ঞান, জৈৱ-বিচিত্ৰতা আৰু সাংস্কৃতিক বিচিত্ৰতাৰ জীৱন্ত সংগ্ৰহালয়্স্বৰূপ এই অঞ্চলটোৰ বিষয়ে পৰ্যাপ্ত তথ্যৰ অভাৱ পূৰণ কৰাৰ প্ৰয়াস কৰা হৈছে। আমি এক মানসম্পন্ন ডিজিটেল তথ্য অভিলেখাগাৰলৈ পৰিণত কৰাৰ লক্ষ্য লৈ উত্তৰ-পূৰ্বাঞ্চলৰ বিষয়ে গুণগত তথ্যসমৃদ্ধ লেখা সৃষ্টি তথা প্ৰকাশ কৰিম। নিজাইন-ৰ মাজেৰে বিস্তৃত বিষয়ৰ বাতৰি, প্ৰতিবেদন অথবা প্ৰবন্ধ প্ৰকাশৰ বাবে এখনি মঞ্চ তৈয়াৰ কৰা হ’ব যি মঞ্চই ভুগোল, ইতিহাস, সমাজ, সংস্কৃতি আৰু পৰম্পৰাৰ নিৰ্দিষ্ট গণ্ডীৰ মাজেৰে উত্তৰ-পূৰ্বাঞ্চলক চোৱাৰ পৰিবৰ্তে অঞ্চলটোৰ সম্পৰ্কে নিজস্ব ধাৰণা গঢ় দিয়াত পঢ়ুৱৈসকলক সহায় কৰিব। Core Group Sushanta Talukdar as Editor: Formerly Senior Assistant Editor of The Hindu.
