Earlier this month, the 94th annual conference of Srimanta Sankardev Sangha, held at Eraltoli Pathar in Jorhat, concluded on a grand note with the ceremonial lowering of the Dharma dhwaja (religious flag).

The four-day socio-religious and cultural event attracted a large crowd to the 1,200-bigha area, ‘Sonaram Chutia Samannay Kshetra’. The flag was handed over to the Tezpur district committee, which will host the 95th conference next year.

State Assembly Speaker Biswajit Daimary attended the Dharmaluchani Sabha as the chief guest. He praised Mahapurush Srimanta Sankardev for his contributions to religious teachings, cultural awakening, and social reforms across Assam. Daimary highlighted Sankardev’s role in unifying Assamese society through spiritual enlightenment and social harmony.

The event, presided over by Padadhikar Bhabendra Nath Deka, was attended by former Padadhikar Kamalakanta Gogoi and other Sangha members. The day began with a mass cleaning drive, followed by naam prasanga (devotional singing). The conference marked a successful celebration of Srimanta Sankardev's legacy.
