DHUBRI: Dhubri district was declared on the top of the list in Assam by Niti indicators and Delta ranking position last week. This encouraged the Dhubri district administration to take up ongoing educational programmes with rejuvenated and innovative ways.

This is for the second year that the Dhubri district administration is going to launch enrolment and transition in schools after having done so successfully last year under the flagship of Utsav Bidhyarambh in collaboration with the Education Department and Piramal Foundation.
