Overview

This commemoration volume (Abhinandan Grantha) was prepared as a gift for the 50th birthday of Abala Gohain, the founding principal of 'Balya Bhavan' in Jorhat (estd. 1950), which was Assam's first Montessori school. Along with essays on higher education, Montessori education, agricultural science, and performing arts education, Garima covers 'Borbaideo's' (elder sister's) life, work, personality, and achievements. It also features reflections, experiences, and memories shared by many of her former students.
