Healing Bodoland: Dr. Birphung Narzary’s mission of hope, change
New Indian ExpressASSAM: Dr Birphung Narzary is a born leader. The joint registrar of the Bodoland University is a household name in Assam’s Bodoland Territorial Region, thanks to his continuous efforts to help those in need. In 2004, Narzary and his friends – by then, all of them educated young men – converted BRANSTHU to an NGO called Northeast Research and Social Work Networking. The first opportunity for them to work on a large scale came in 2004, a year after the creation of the autonomous Bodoland Territorial Council, which now administers five districts of western and northern Assam. “With little knowledge of governance, having been suddenly entrusted with constitutional responsibilities, the former rebel leaders called upon educated and qualified youth to join them in the reconstruction of the region following decades of devastation due to conflict,” Narzary says.
