About Faculty

At present, I reside at Narayanpur, Lakhimpur (Assam), while my place of origin is Kailashpur, West Jalukbari, Guwahati (Assam). I pursued my higher education in Botany at Gauhati University, Guwahati (Assam), from where I also obtained my Ph.D. degree in 2006.

Subsequently, I commenced my teaching career as a Lecturer at LOKD College, Dhekiajuli, Sonitpur (Assam). I later moved to B.H. College, Howly, Barpeta (Assam), and in April 2008, I joined M.C. College, Barpeta (Assam) as a permanent Lecturer against a retirement vacancy.

I served at M.C. College for approximately 18 years, during which I held the position of Associate Professor for the last four years. Additionally, I have been serving as a Ph.D. supervisor under Gauhati University for the past five years.
