JAMUGURIHAT: To celebrate Maha Shivaratri and to observe the foundation day of Shiv Mandir located at Jamugurihat centre, a celebration committee was formed at Jamugurihat on Friday.

This year the foundation day of the Shiv Mandir will be celebrated on February 28 and Shivaratri on March 1.

For the smooth functioning of two separate occasions, a new body was formed with Madhab Ojha, Dilip Kumar Bhattacharjya, Minku Kalita, Tapan Hazarika, Pulak Sarma and Haren Borthakur as advisors, Shivaratan Sarma as president, Govinda Paul as vice president, Uttam Paul and Bijoy Sarma as secretaries along with other executive members.
