The youngsters will be presenting their take on issues concerning the state at the local level as well as with a global perspective, while putting forth their solutions, he said.

Saikia said: “The basic purpose of this initiative is to encourage the new generation to get an understanding, right from their formative years, of their roots as well as what is happening around the globe and how it impacts them.”

The inaugural lectures of the series, Swadesh Swabhiman (My land, my pride), will be delivered by a group of six youngsters here on Sunday on topics exploring the role of students in the pre-Independence era, resources in the villages of the state and folk traditions lost to time, among others.
