Rajib Kumar Bhuyan

GUWAHATI:  State Water Resources Department Superintending Engineer Rajib Kumar Bhuyan breathed his last due to cardiac arrest at his Nizarapar residence in Guwahati around 9 pm on August 22.  He was 58.

Known for his philanthropic approach toward others, be it in his professiol or social life, Bhuyan was closely associated with various socio-cultural organizations of the city. His close association with the down-trodden was clearly visible when hundreds of his friends and well-wishers from different sections of society waited till the completion of the cremation of their beloved “Rajib da” in vagraha crematorium in the wee hours of August 23, 2016. This is really not a common sight in the busy city life.

An alumnus of Assam Engineering College, Cotton College and Cotton Collegiate HS School, Bhuyan leaves behind his wife Seema Rekha Bhuyan, Additiol Secretary, Department of Home, Government of Assam; a son and a daughter; his brother Dr Sanjeev Bhuyan, HoD, Department of Orthopaedic, GMCH;and a host of relatives and well-wishers.
