History - the best department of GU
Posted on 05 Feb' 17 by ARCHANA DEVI
Batch of 2018 |
MA History
Guwahati is the place of best educational institutes in Assam. The oldest of all of them is the Gauhati University at Jalukbarit. The department of History was established in 1948. No wonder how the building is still in a very good state. The rooms are large in size and I feel very happy and proud for this department. The department has best teachers in the city. I hope the department of History continues to prosper for ever.
