The college, located in the vast and mostly rural locality of Titabar, has reached the present status as a result of innumerable sacrifices and efforts of all the past and present members of the college family. It strives to deliver its committed goals with devotion to the students in particular and the greater society, in general. This Self Study Report is a sincere analysis and study of our strengths and weaknesses prepared for assessment by NAAC. I humbly acknowledge and appreciate the honest efforts of the entire Nanda Nath Saikia College family in the completion of this Self Study Report over the last a few months. I remain highly optimistic to receive encouraging communication from NAAC regarding the Self Study Report as well as Assessment and Accreditation consequent to Peer Team Visit for physical verification of our college very soon. Dr. Litool Baruah Principal Nanda Nath Saikia College, Titabar NANDA NATH SAIKIA COLLEGE Page 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Nanda Nath Saikia College, Titabar volunteers for the second cycle of assessment and accreditation by NAAC. The college has prepared its SSR as per the guidelines laid down by NAAC covering all the aspects embodied within NAAC guidelines for preparation of the Self Study Report. The college came into existence in the year 1959 as a result of the honest and collected efforts of the people of Titabar. It has now established itself as a leading institute of higher education catering to the educational aspirations of the students from all sections of the society. The college is affiliated to Dibrugarh University and offers education in both Arts and Science streams. It is committed to the educational upliftment of the people of this vast Titabar locality that is mostly rural and backward as well as remote from the modern facilities of the big towns and cities. The following pages present the chapterwise summary of this SSR 2014. Chapter I Curricular Aspects Nanda Nath Saikia College has a vision to offer quality education to the students. It operates with a mission to offer an environment in which students can discover, examine and transmit knowledge and wisdom. The college has several objectives aimed at the overall development of the students and the greater society as well. The college offers undergraduate course of Dibrugarh University in both the Arts and Science streams and for effective delivery of the curriculum of Dibrugarh University it designs and plans all its academic activities in a meticulous manner. To this end the college offers all possible assistance to the teaching departments of the college and pays attention to the demands of the faculty and the departments. The Academic Vice-Principals have been entrusted with the responsibility to look after the effective and timely implementation and delivery of the academic programmes of the college. It also offers remedial classes funded by UGC to the students of ST, SC, OBC and other economically weaker sections of the society. The construction of the two digital class rooms and the enlarged library of the college are purely aimed at offering infrastructure equipped with modern facilities for the benefit of the students so that they can gain the most from the institution that will in turn help them secure jobs in the competitive job market of present times. The college adopts an all inclusive attitude keeping itself away from all discriminatory practices based on NANDA NATH SAIKIA COLLEGE Page 3 sex, class, creed, caste, culture and religion. It has been quite eager to integrate the important issues of climate change, environmental education, Human Rights, ICT etc. into curriculum and has initiated several steps in this direction. The feedback received from the students and other stakeholders of the college are carefully analysed and necessary steps are intitated to fullfil their logical and feasible demands and suggestions. Chapter II Teaching, Learning & Evaluation The college has a transparent admission process. Advertisements are published in newspapers for wider publicity of the admission notice of the institution. The merit list for admission into First semester classes are displayed well ahead of the date of admission. The university and government guidelines for reservation of seats are strictly followed by us. While the general admission is based on merit basis, the admission into the different major courses is done on the basis of merit, selection test, viva-voce or a combination of all these criteria. The departments monitor the profile of the students and assess their academic performance which has contributed towards improvement of the academic standards of the institution. An analysis of the students’ profile reflects the inclusion of all the sections of the society in keeping with the national commitment to diversity and inclusion. The differently abled students are also offered maximum facilities for their ease and convenience as per Dibrugarh University rules. The needs of the students are assessed before commencement of academic programmes and required texts and reference books are procured accordingly. The college authority sensitises the teachers and staff regarding the sensitive issues like gender inclusion and equal treatment without any iota of discrimination. In the same way the students are also advised to keep themselves away from any discriminatory behaviour. The advanced students are encouraged to crave for more knowledge and excellent results by teachers by way of offering advanced learning materials and arranging educational visits to advanced study centres for them. The college also takes care of the students at the risk of drop out by offering all possible assistance for their academic improvement. The teaching, learning and evaluation schedules of the college are planned and monitored by the Academic Planning and Monitoring Board of the college. The Board prepares the daily class routine, Academic Calender, Prospectus etc. The allotment of teaching units and departmental activities are planned by the NANDA NATH SAIKIA COLLEGE Page 4 Heads of the departments. The programmes of all internal evaluation processes are chalked out by the Academic Vice-Principals of the college and the teaching departments carry out the internal assessment of the students in each of the semesters. The IQAC of the college plays a key role in the internal academic quality maintanence of the institution. It offers suggestions to the Principal on vital issues related to internal quality of the institute. As a result of the active role of the IQAC and the need analysis of the scenario of present day higher education the teaching learning process has been made more students centric. The smart class rooms, enlarged library, ICT facilities and subscription to INFLIBNET are all aimed at making learning in the insitute a student centric practice. The faculty members always look to develop critical thinking and scientific temperament among the students and initiate some programmes also to that end. The earlier practice of one way lecture method no longer remains the only way of educating the students in the college. Seminar presentations, interactions and group discussion are also done on regular basis to make them learn more so that they can proceed for higher studies with confidence. There have been some difficulties in running the courses due to the vacant posts of lectures due to retirement of senior regular teachers. The college keeping in view the interests of the students hire part time faculty to complete the courses. Chapter III Research, Consultancy & Extension In recent years the college has given much importance on research. The ongoing research projects in the college bears testimony to enhanced emphasis on research in the college. Besides two major research projects, several minor research projects are also going on at present. Though we donot have recognized research centre at present, a few faculty members are recognized research supervisors for Ph.D. and M.Phil programmes of different universities in the country. The Research Committee of the college has been playing a vital role in the promotion of research in the college. It examines the different research proposals submitted by the teachers and on satisfaction, as per UGC guidelines, recommends the proposals to the concern higher authorities. The college has provided space for construction of laboratories to carry out research work. It has also aimed to create a scientific temper among the students by organizing seminars, workshops, special lecture programmes etc. At present, almost fifty percent of the incumbent faculty members are engaged in research project funded by UGC or other external funding agencies. NANDA NATH SAIKIA COLLEGE Page 5 In the last four years, six teachers have been awarded with Ph.D. degree on successful completion of their Ph.D. research and one teacher has submitted Ph.D. thesis while nine others are pursuing Ph.D. research in different universities. To create an atmosphere conducive to research the different departments of the college have invited some reputed resource persons to the college to deliver expert lecture on various topics.

    www.TLHjournal.com Literary Herald ISSN: 2454-3365 An International Refereed/Peer-reviewed English e-Journal Impact Factor: 4.727 (SJIF) Influence of Ramayana on Modern Assamese Poetry Dr. Maheswar Kalita Associate Professor in Assamese Cotton University, Guwahati, Assam Abstract The great Indian epic Ramayana was the origin source of the great tradition i.e. culture, not only of India but also of Nepal, Sri Lanka, Philippines, Thailand, Java, Cambodia and Indonesia. It is to be noted that the ‘culture’ may be described as the characteristics of a society. The ‘characteristics’ consist of every good work carried out by the human beings, i.e. language, literature, music, art, religion, cuisine and social habits. There are deep influences of Ramayana on Indian culture. Indian writers of different ages were influenced by the great epic. That was also seen in the writings of Assamese writers. Madhava Kandali, a famous Assamese poet of 14th century rendered the Ramayana to Assamese. That was not the beginning of the said influence on Assamese literature, as we have seen the influence on the Assamese oral literature also. The romantic and the modern poets had also great respect to Valmiki and to the Ramayana. The influential Assamese literary magazine Ramdhenu was republished in 1952 under the editorial leadership of Dr. Birendra Kumar Bhattacharya and had set trends in Assamese literature. Poets of Ramdhenu tried to combine the western literary styles with Indian ideals. They collected poetic elements from the Ramayana, Mahabharata and other Puranas. Thus, they were deeply influenced by the epics. This paper aims to analysis the influences of the Ramayana on the poetry of Ramdhenu age (1951-60) of Assamese literature.

  • Chapter Iv Vaisnavism and Satra Institution in Assam
    CHAPTER IV VAISNAVISM AND SATRA INSTITUTION IN ASSAM The vaisnavite movement of Assam initiated by Shri Sankaradeva during the last part of fifteenth century of Christian era is remarkable for the religious and social life of medieval Assam. Its impact on religion, literature, fine arts and social life of Assam, particularly on the Brahmaputra valley is indeed great. Now the details of vaisnavism are discussed below- Vaisnavism “Vaisnavism is the cult of worshipping Vishnu as the supreme deity in any one of his several forms. Later on vaisnavism was known as neo-vaisnavism, which had been propagated in the 15th 16th centuries onwards, stress was laid on bhakti and on the singing of prayer songs than on other priestly rituals” (Sarma, 1990: 327). The bhakti movement or the ekasharaniya-naam-dharma (religion to supreme devotion to one God) initiated by Sankaradeva towards the end of the 15th century reflects the religious, social and cultural history of the population of Assam (Nath, 1988: 306). Bhakti (a way to attain Holy Communion with God through devotion) movement was started by Sankaradeva at Bardowa which is situated at the middle of Assam. There after it spread throughout Assam, particularly in the Brahmaputra valley. Sankaradeva the father of this movement had to travel from one place to another place to avoid complexities that developed in the society in the course of his movement. This indirectly helped in the spread of his religion. This movement bred new ideas and institutions which upsurge religion, culture and other parameters. a) Vaisnavism in India: A social reform movement swept across India between the 12th and 15th century A.D and it was the bhakti movement based on the liberal doctrine of bhakti (Nath ed, 1989: 15).

During the poetry of that period, we find a typical Assamese community consciousness. During that period some of the poets became progressive in their attitude of course, according to some critics, that kind of consciousness was integrally related to the formation of the Assamese community as a whole. He rages a battle against the traditional Assamese poetry and he has been compared with the Beats poets of the 1960s and 1970s. He has shown that he can blend emotion and intellect, a tendency to experiment, a mixture of symbol and images, a keenness to observe life from different viewpoints etc. Barua has exhibited an intimate poetic touch through the observation of common human life. He has used both satire and narrative style in his poetry and these have turned out to be his strength. Ranjit Gogoi’s poem present before readers a sense of despondency and through such melancholy he indulges in self- introspection to find out the difficult answers of life. Ajit Bharali is another addition to the list of contemporary Assamese poetry.
