Agartala
Agartala, the capital of Tripura, known for its sprawling Rajbati (Palace) and intricate bamboo works is an interesting city. Just 2 kms from Bangladesh, this sprawling city, the second largest in North-east India after Guwahati lies on the bank of Haora River. Considering its geo-strategic importance the airport is tiny, chaotic and has an unkempt look. 
Ujjant Palace, Agartala, Tripura
It was my first visit to Agartala. The aircraft stopped almost at the gate of the airport and the passengers alighted from the plane and just walked into the arrival hall in less than a minute.
The ride from airport to the University, distance of about 24 km took about an hour, thanks to congestion caused by the construction of a flyover. It looked almost like rural Bengal- the topography, the people, the houses- almost everything looked familiar.
A while later I discovered another similarity: the work culture is also the same.
Hindi Diwas
The Constituent Assembly adopted Hindi as an official language of India on 14 September 1949. Three years later, on request of Rashtrabhasa Prachar Samiti, Wardha, this day was declared as Hindi Diwas and celebrated all over the country to promote and popularise Hindi. 
Hindi is an interesting language.  A direct descendant of Sanskrit, through Sauraseni Prakrit and Åšauraseni Apabhraṃśa, it has been influenced by Dravidian languages, Turkic languages,  Persian,  Arabic,  Portuguese  and English.
The dialect of Hindustani on which Standard Hindi is based is Khariboli, the vernacular of Delhi and the surrounding western Uttar Pradesh and southern Uttarakhand. Urdu, literally meaning, "the language of the camp", a dialect of Hindustani, acquired official linguistic prestige in the later Mughal period (1800s). Linguistically, Hindi and Urdu are two registers of the same language. Hindi is written in the Devanagari script and uses more Sanskrit words, whereas Urdu is written in the Perso-Arabic script and uses more Arabic and Persian words.
In the late 19th century, the movement standardising a written language from Khariboli, for the Indian masses in North India, started to standardise Hindi as a separate language from Urdu, which was learnt by the Mughal elite. In 1881, Bihar accepted Hindi as its sole official language, replacing Urdu, and thus became the first state of India to adopt Hindi.
Hindi has all the qualities to be a good link language in India, which has so many languages and dialects. Besides the fact that Hindi (or different dialects of Hindi)  is spoken by half of the population of the country (in fact, it is now the fourth largest spoken language of the world), it has the adaptability and flexibility, which many other languages do not have.
It will augur well for us to learn Hindi not out of any compulsion or coercion- but out of sheer love of the language which has a rich body of literature to enjoy.
Two New Books
It is a pleasure to attend Book Release events, especially if the writer happens to be young. It means- the next generation is growing up, and that is what takes everything forward. The onward mobility means life is alive and kicking.
Recently I came across two new books published by two young writers: Manas Padiary (Jibanara Kete Ranga –Colours of Life) and Parambramha Tripathy (Kichhi Kahibar Achhi- I have to say Something)
Parambramha was my student at Indian Institute of Mass Communication (IIMC), Dhenkanal. 'Kichhi Kahibar Achhi' is a prose collection. In this book he writes with the heart of a poet and mind of a social critic. 
Jibanara Kete Ranga is also the title of a popular story telling programme on Bhubaneswar-based Radio Choklate. Manas writes most the stories. I am a big fan of Manas. He writes so well- with such intimate feeling- it is sublime.

The best thing about attending a book release event as a guest is - you get a free book with the autograph of the author.
