The history of of Brahmaputra Jungle Resort is a story of a prolonged struggle of eleven years of how a youth with no capital base and with society?s support, has converted a remote inaccessible hill into a paradise for tourists. When Mr Tridib Sarma visited the area for the first time in the year 1998 he encountered wild elephants on this plot and immediately it came to his mind that there is no reason why tourists cannot be attracted to this area to see wild animals and birds, the area being so close to Guwahati and blessed with the best of natural beauty. Provided, essential infrastructures like road and electricity can be built. At that time the road measuring more than a kilometer was non-motor-able even during winter, and during monsoon it was impossible even for people to walk. Electricity also could not be dreamt off. With prolonged effort and extensive investment today the plot is blessed with an all season motor-able road and 3 phase electricity connection. Amchang Wild Life Sanctuary was than just a reserved forest. It was on his initiative that a proposal was mooted to declare the forest as a wild life sanctuary in the year 2004. As a result of a well-organized campaign it was declared so in the year 2005. Massive plantation of citrus, arcenut and fruit trees was undertaken. The trees have started yielding fruits already. The area is often frequented by deer, and varieties of birds. |
