Telahi Tuwaram Nath College

Out here in Lakhimpur, things move a bit slower than in the big cities. Telahi Tuwaram Nath College is situated in Khoga, right near the P.O. Khoga. It’s a quiet spot, mostly surrounded by greenery and open fields. In the monsoon season, the road leading up to the college gets pretty muddy, and we all have to be careful not to slip while walking in. The building isn't brand new, and you can see where the rain has left marks on the walls over the years. Most of the students come from the nearby villages, some walking quite a distance to get here every morning. We don't have a big fancy office, just a few desks and some old wooden chairs that have been around since the start. The 787052 area is peaceful, though. You can hear birds during the morning sessions, which is nice for everyone. We spend a lot of time just keeping the place tidy and making sure there’s enough chalk and paper for everyone to use. Sometimes the electricity goes out in the afternoon, so we just open the windows and keep going with the natural light. It’s a simple life here in Khoga. We don't have any big slogans or anything like that. We just open the doors in the morning and see who shows up to learn. It’s been this way for a long time, and we don't expect it to change much.
