This is Dhira Chaliha Hazarika, the first female pilot from the state of Assam, India.
In 1961, at the age of 21, she earned her Pilotโs A Licence.
And in September 2025, at the age of 85, she returned to the skies, taking the controls of a historic Tiger Moth biplane over the English countryside.
I confess, I wasnโt aware of her pioneering storyโฆ and I suspect many others werenโt either.
She deserves a place in Indiaโs Aviation Hall of Fame simply for being a trailblazer.
But for flying again at 85, she belongs in a global Hall of Fame for her courage, her resilience, and her life-affirming spirit.

Zubeen da left us too soon. ๐ Hard to believe that the voice which became the heartbeat of our generation, the songs we grew up with, has now fallen silent. Assam has lost a true cultural icon. His contribution to music and the cultural identity of Assam will remain eternal. ๐ถ

โข Assam needs sub-classification among STs to address the inherent differences among various tribes.
โข A socio-economic caste census must guide fair sub-classification.
โข Areas inhabited by these new entrants should be notified as protected belts & blocks, with their political seats reserved for STs.
โข ST reservation in jobs and education should be allocated proportionately (around 40โ50%) in the state.
