[asom] Reputed Sankari Scholar/Economist/Educationist/Litterateur & my father Principal Bhabananda Deka is no more
Reputed Sankari Scholar & Economist-Litterateur Principal Bhabananda Deka left for his heavenly abode With great sorrow and plentiful of grief I use this forum to inform one and all the concerned that the eminent Assamese Economist, great Sankari Scholar, reputed Educationist, First Assamese Senior Most Central Government Officer in India holding the responsibility of setting up the system for holding the All Indian level Civil Services Examinations through the UPSC, India, and one of the torch bearers of the famous Five who set up the Assamese Department in the Delhi University, and former Principal of Pragjyotish College in Guwahati, Teok Tamulichiga college in Janjhi, Bapujee college in Sarthebari, Hajo B Ed college as well as Sarukhetri Junior College--- Principal Bhabananda Deka left for his heavenly abode on the fourth of December, 2006, at around 9 30 am, at his permanent residence in Guwahati.He happened to be my father. My father died just after taking bath in cold water like every morning and doing his prayer after lighting the earthen lamp in front of the deity at home. He was 76. It is amazing that both his Birth and Death weekdays and TITHIS (PURNIMA) ARE THE SAME. His Adya Shraddha passed on 14th of December 2006. Adya shraddha was excellent.I hurriedly published a 64 page biographical book on him with colour pages, and inaugurated it just after midday Naam Kirtan . The Assam Legislative Assembly formally passed a Resolution mourning his death, and Chief Minister of Assam expresssed his grief through newspapers on his demise and Assam Sahitya Sabha also passed Resolution recognising his literary contributions. It is pertinent to mention herein that my father had just few months before his death completed the English translation of KIRTAN GHOSA of Srimanta Sankardev, which had been specially mentioned by all newspapers as well as Television Channels , and Radio Stations in Assam. He also authored more than 100 books and innumerable articles on Archaeology, Heritage, different Ethnic communities, Sankari Sahitya, Temples in Assam, Satra institutions, Dramas, Poetry, as well as first Assamese textbooks on Economics, Civics and Political Science. He also authored several English books including the last one on Srimanta Sankardev. All prominent personalities of Assam attended the functions and repeatedly visited our residence, who includes--- Dr Mamoni Raisom goswami, Dr Hiren gohain, Dr Lakshminandan Bora, PRANTIK Editor Pradip Baruah, Assam Sahitya Sabha President Kanaksen Deka, Dr Sibanath Barman, Samir Tanti, Dr Satyendra Narayan goswami, Prof Bisweswar Hazarika, Prof Paban Kumar Baruah, Dilip Sarma, Dr Bhupen Hazarika's sister Sudakshina Sarma, Filmmaker Gauri Barman, as well as many Satradhikars including Sankardev Award Winner Narayan Chandra Goswami of Kamalabari Satra of Majuli. The most surprising element of these religious activities is the unexpected visits of uninvited Head Priest of Kamakhya Temple, Moulavi of Masjid and other such religious gurus, who paid religious tributes and prayed before the alter mounted in honour of my father. The Chief Minister, Chief Secretary, Speaker of Assam Legislative Assembly and other persons also paid glaring tributes to my father. Now I am busy collecting money to the tune of Rs. 1,20,000/= (about $ 3000) to immediately publish my father's last major literary magnum opus ---the English Translation of Srimanta Sankardev's KIRTAN GHOSA, which he completed just a couple fo moths before his death. However, the unexpected financial constrains I faced because of the father's death as well as organisation of the Adya Shraddha in a befitting manner has somewhat made it look almost impossible to publish the big volume book of about 350 pages immediately. I am looking for generous sponsors, and please let me know if you find someone. You may also convey to such prospective persons that in the event of someone is interested not in sponsoring, but in lending that amount of $ 3000, to me immediately, I am even willing to commit to return the entire amount within the next one year. As for the rest, now we are gradually getting over the trauma, and I am devoting lots of time in searching for all the unpublished manuscripts of my father, as well as those innumerable essays and articles, which are not yet compiled in book form. We have already formed a body naming it as PRINCIPAL BHABANANDA DEKA FOUNDATION, and its first offering ---the Biography of Principal Bhabananda Deka was already published and released in the AdyaShraddha. - All new Yahoo!

Re: [asom] Regarding special tribute event in Assam Convention 2007
I hereby offer my sincere gratitude (to Mr Deka) of myself and my fentire amily for taking the intitiaves for including the name of my departed father in SPECIAL TRIBUTE category in the forthcoming Assam Convention. His initiative is special because otherwise nobody would have cared to include my father's name, despite my repeated pleas. It is understandable. When unconnected people speak about some individual and his contributions, that makes more sense and inpress people, rather than when family memebers speak out. If memory does not betray me, I never had the opportunity of knwoing Mr Deka personally. However, I am in the dark if Mr Deka somehow happened to be ever associated with my deaprted father or other family members. I would like to be enlightened on this front. Hope to see you Mr Deka some day either here in Guwahti or there ius San Jose. In the meanwhile, I again thank him and wish prosperity and happiness to his entire family. May God bless you all ! Thanking you..

In addition to NRI, I feel, if Assam Convention Host Committee includes people from Assam as well in this programme the program would highlight connection/solidarity with the people of Assam. So I would like to extend the liberty to request the Assam Convention Host Committee Boston, Massachusetts to include names from Assam as well in the "special tribute" event and I would like to suggest a name "Bhabananda" to be included in the list. In brief Late Bhabananda Deka contributed to academia as well as socio-cultural development in Assam who retired as Principal (also authored the first Assamese text book on Economics) - Asam Prakashan Parishad award for a novel on his life. And in addition, he is a Vaisnav Scholar who composed Kirtan Ghosha hymns of Guru Sankaradeva to English language - this might add value to Asam Sahitya Sabha North America agenda in Assam Convention 2007.
