Description
Despite his short life, Ananda Ram left an indelible mark on Assamese society and scholarship. His crusade to establish Assamese as Assam?s rightful court and official language-displacing Bengali from its entrenched position-would prove pivotal to the making of modern Assamese identity. His diverse scholarship ranged from books for young readers to more serious and intellectually rigorous works on colonial law and language, among other subjects.
