About online Bismoi : 

Online Bismoi is like any other online publication. The lively online Bismoi magazine comes with all the aspects of Bismoi. There are two versions, one is subscriber's copy, and the other is for those who are satisfied with a few sections of the novel. Cinema, Crime diary, Bibidha, Paratham Pristha, stories and one or two cover stories  come with the non-scribers' version.Online Bismoi is the first Assamese magazine with an online version.

One of the  most popular section of Bismoi is Priyo bandhu. Here interested people can publish their names, address and preference of choice for a pen friend. Interesting fact is that this Priyo Bandhu section of Bismoi has worked as a matrimonial classified too though not officially. Several couples of Assam met their life partners through this friendship. I remember during our college days our friends use to make lots of pen-friends through this column.

 Bismoi gave birth to several new and now established writers too, through its contests like Assamese story, short story, novel. The tradition is still continued. And we expect more and more writers should be encouraged in coming days.

My Favourite Bismoi Column

For me the best part of Bismoi is the article and cover story of Bismoi. Youth issues, any new national issues etc are dealt with full coverage and exclusivity. I know many people have different choices regaring the favourite section of Bismoi, and Bismoi has something for everyone. 

I wish, Bismoi to be there  with Assam and Assamese people till they exist. Young generation is most complicated to be dealt with. Especially Assam being a state disturbed by so many issues, the young people have every opprtunity to be misguided and spoil their lives. But Bismoi keeps them engaged, I am not talking of those who have people to guide them and have opportunity to get correct career advises. But lots of young people get the solution to their problems, career guidance through Bismoi. Not to mention the bond it has created among the Assamese people.
