Bihu songs and the Ryot Sabha by Dr Anjan Saikia
The role of Culture in social conciousness has been a topic of Social/Cultural Geography. In freedom struggle of our nation too, if Ganesh puja was promoted by BG Tilak to bring social cohesion amongst people to fight the Britishers, in Assam too Bihu played a similar role. This fact is eludicated well in this article by Dr Anjan Saikia.
Bihu played an important part in mobilizing a strong democratic front and integrity that emerged from the rural areas of the Brahmaputra Valley through the Ryot Sabha. From that point of view we may draw that the Bihu ,songs were able to establish strong integrity among the rural masses through the Ryot Sabha which later on contributed to the freedom struggle against the British Government.
