The performance of “Bhaona” was a remarkable experience for the local population, as the area had limited exposure to this traditional cultural art form. The festival spanned from October 5th to 8th, 2023, with the main cultural events, including “Bhaona,” taking place on the concluding day of October 8th.
The event witnessed the presence of not only artists and politicians but also religious leaders from various parts of the state, who participated in a spiritual symposium. Notably, the younger generation actively engaged in this traditional religious festival dedicated to Saint Sankardev. The organizing committee encouraged youngsters to wholeheartedly participate in future events to uphold and preserve Assamese culture.
