Why did the ant choose to work in Rowmary?
During their initial reconnaissance for a needy place to work, some people staying in the Kokrjahar – Bongaigaon border had brought some of the founding trustees to the areas north of Bongaigaon that were badly affected by lack of communications and river erosion. Since they were convinced that the area deserved the attention of a development agency and that they could contribute from their experience, they set up the ant in October 2000. By March 2001, villages of Rowmary G.P. were chosen as the stepping stone for future developmental activities. Presently our activities extend to other G.Ps as well, like Malepara, Birhangaon, Amguri and upto Koila Moila and Amteka on the Bhutan border . Moreover, Bongaigaon town being close to the work area was chosen as the base, as it helps us to communicate with other agencies and facilitates our activities at the second level.
