BOKAKHAT: A remarkable village in Bokakhat subdivision, Bahikhowa, has over a hundred members. Among them, six have served in the Indian Army, and one served as a security person at Kaziranga National Park, all of whom have now retired. Each of them earned various medals during their service. On Monday, the youngest member of the village to serve in the Army, Sadananda Hazarika, returned home after retirement. The villagers gave him a grand welcome with traditional music, including gayan-bayan and drums, escorting him from the banks of the Dhansiri river in Bokakhat to his home in Bahikhowa village.
