National Integration Tour Transforms Lives of Assam’s Young Minds

Guwahati, Nov 30: For many students from Assam’s remote regions, their first journey beyond their home state becomes an unforgettable odyssey.

This initiative of Spear Corps of the Indian Army turned a distant dream into a vibrant reality, offering the young participants an enriching experience that transcended their expectations.

The tour spanned Delhi, Mumbai, and Ahmednagar, exposing the students to a diverse array of cultural, historical, and military landmarks.

For Beatrica Sonowal, a Class XI student from Bhimpara, Tinsukia, the journey was a revelation. “I never imagined I would visit such iconic places and meet such inspiring people. It was a dream come true,” he said, his voice brimming with excitement.

From the imposing Rashtrapati Bhavan to the energetic streets of Mumbai and the military legacy of Ahmednagar, the students were immersed in a world far removed from their daily lives. Master Souhan Ali of Doomdooma described meeting President Droupadi Murmu as a defining moment. “She spoke so warmly and encouraged us to dream big. Her words will stay with me forever,” he shared.

In addition to visiting the National War Memorial to honor the nation’s fallen heroes, the students explored Delhi’s historical treasures, including the Qutub Minar, and marveled at the vibrant cultural showcase of Dilli Haat.

Beyond the landmarks, the tour fostered connections between students from different communities. Manobi Baruah from Barekuri, Tinsukia, reflected on the bonds formed: “I made friends from all over Upper Assam. We shared stories, laughed, and learned from each other. The experience of unity was beautiful and unforgettable.”

Aditi Chauhan from Margherita captured the emotional weight of the experience: “To actually stand where history was made, to touch those places, it was surreal. It felt like stepping into a dream.”

The tour not only broadened horizons but also instilled a sense of national pride and unity among the young participants.
