BUDDING BUDS SR. SEC. SCHOOL
Pulse
Issue :- 16
It is the season of kopou phool and kuli –ketekir maat. A new
beginning ushering in feelings of hope and rejuvenation. And in this
auspicious and festive occasion Budding Buds Sr. Sec School was the
venue of the Grand Bihu Mela. The school grounds wore a colourful
look and food stalls and games stalls competed for attention of the
multitudes consisting of parents and well-wishers. The highlight of the
event was the exhibition of different facets of Assamese culture linked
to the celebration of Bohag Bihu. There were stalls depicting handlooms,
traditional weaving methods, varieties of Assamese fabrics, preparation
of pithas, use of traditional fishing implements, cow shed with live
animals such as cows, goats , ducks; cultivation of paddy, different
varieties of rice and tea varieties found locally, depiction of local
communitites including tea garden communities and also the songs
,dances and cultures of communities from different parts of the country
celebrating the traditional New Year in their own distinct ways. The
praise received from all quarters has once again vindicated our pride in
our ancient tradition and rich heritage.
Along with the regular features, this issue of PULSE has articles on the
beginning of the academic session, on the attractions of Tinsukia Town
and also a large number of photos of various events. Happy Reading…

Welcome to Tinsukia
Walking through diverse crowds, our little Tinsukia always remains aglow
no matter what. It sheltered and shelters a kaleidoscope of loud heart
beats. A minor part of the seventh largest country in the world, Tinsukia is
a diverse town where not even the littlest of creature want the same one
thing, and they search for a new sound they have never heard before.
Tinsukia may be overlooked as any other not-so worthy town. But once
you are here in the family, each time and every day, you will have new
entry in your list of THE VARIED SPLENDOURS TINSUKIA HOLDS.
Sheltering over a dozen of statues, numerous ponds, a national
highway, shopping malls, a heritage park, a couple of institutes from
India‟s most renowned and famous school chains, Tinsukia in actual
reality is more than just a „smudge‟ on Assam.
Believing to have three corners, our ancestors coined the name- Tinsukia
for our district (previously „Beng Mora‟). It is one of the few districts of
north-eastern India that has fulfilled a number of dreams- be it helping
people set up their business or doctors and lawyers becoming popular
among the common public. Speaking of name and fame, it has statues of
great Assamese as well as great Indian personalities like- Jyoti Prasad
Agarwalla, Sharbananda Shingha, Mahatma Gandhi, Subhash Chandra
Bose and many others.
People say, “Water doesn‟t like to be restrained.” Maybe because it has so
many ponds, lakes and rivers in store, it hasn‟t been tamed in years.
Ponds like Tinikunia-pukhuri, Guda-pukhuri, Helukiya-pukhuri (formerly
Bang-pukhuri), Chauldhuwa-pukhuri, Devi-pukhuri, Nau-pukhuri et cetera
have been carefully placed by the Almighty himself to add beauty to the
town. In addition to that, rivers like Guijan River indiscriminately help the
fishing industries alongside attracting a number of visitors every year.
At the very beginning of Tinsukia town, people are greeted by the not-so
tranquil New Tinsukia Junction Railway Station. As one moves downtown,
keen shopaholics have grins plastered across their faces once their eyes
land on the shops. Tinsukia is a major economic hub of Assam, the
runner-up after Guwahati. It provides you with malls and mega marts like
ATC Mall and Vishal Mega Mart; car showrooms of famous national and
international companies like Maruti, Hyundai, Mahindra and Mahindra,
TVS, Tata, Ford, Force, Nissan, Chevrolet and so on, uncountable shops
for Assamese ornaments, departmental stores, clothing stores, clusters of
bookshops, shops focusing on household articles and whatnot. As a
bookworm myself, I am proud to say the District Library is set up just by
the corner opposite to Municipality Board.
If that doesn‟t satisfy you, Tinsukia not too long ago had introduced
the Railway Heritage Park, Jyoti Prasad Agarwalla Udaayan, Morut Kanan
and holds in store the famous Dibru Saihuwa National Park.
Although Tinsukia may not be the first option for industrialists to set up
their industries, flour mills, oil industries, tea factories, steel industries,
aluminium industries, brickfields are spread throughout its lands.
Also, like all other districts, Tinsukia has several granaries and a couple
of FCI (Food Corporation of India) godowns. Despite the pollution
prevailing all around us, Tinsukia, surprisingly, has a pollution control
centre!
Tinsukia has a strong educational infrastructure with schools likeVivekananda Kendra Vidyalaya, Delhi Public School, Carmel, Shiksha- The
Gurukul, Guru Teg Bahadur Academy, Tinsukia English Academy, St.
Stephen‟s School, Pinewood High School and the school that has set
records since its establishment back in 1984- Budding Buds Senior
Secondary School.
Unlike Assam‟s climate, Tinsukia experiences a mashed-up weather almost
every day- which can be considered as one of one of the sole reasons of
our ill-tempers since the last few years. Heavy showers have become a
common occurrence during the harsh summers and winters have been
chillier in the last few decades than it had ever been before.
Tinsukia is a sound track introduced to people not too long ago and is
still prevailing and has barely made it to mid-stage of its life. However,
anytime now, whenever you tend to measure the pros and cons.
So, boys and girls, wouldn‟t it be a wonderful choice for us to give our
town a little closer visit than what we had done before to explore Tinsukia‟s
splendours? And as for newcomers, even if we arenot there to welcome
you, our abode will always be there to willingly shelter and blanket you
once you join the family and will rings bells inside your head, singing,
“Welcome to Tinsukia.”

We all die
Some manage to carry on with their soul
Some be in their dead bodies and wait
(for whom, no one knows)
The free souls enter into a garden of roses
Aah.... a thorn pricks
Blood falls
A new empress waits to be crowned
Empress resides to rejoice the red
Bouquets blooming beneath blue boss
Air coloured by the shades of heaven
As if hearts lying naked upon nature
Open books to be read
Soul mesmerising.....Death-a boon
Boon to be born beside bye blues
Among the empress of heaven
Sacrificing soul still
Bounded soul be in the lifeless body
Rest in peace...wow...what a comfort
Air blackened by the shades of hell’
Vultures and crows all around
Soul in dead body-a “waste”
As if trash lying upon pits
Waiting to be thrown away
Soul suffocating...death-a curse
Curse to curb the craziness
Selfish soul still
Taking birth, accepting death is human life
Everyone has to face it
But to die and relive is human spirit
Not everyone can face it
Healing hands high from heaven headway
Take pain,heal bruises..
And the roses nod their heads
On the yard, on the other hand
No one dares to touch the “dirty” soul
And it gets ripped by vultures and crows.
(P.S. This poem focuses on how people deal with failure)
