Timeline

1932

Homen Borgohain (7 December 1932 – 12 May 2021) was an Assamese author and journalist.

1978

He was awarded the 1978 Sahitya Akademi Award in Assamese language for his novel Pita Putra.

2001

He was also the President of Assam Sahitya Sabha from 2001 to 2002.

Despite his rural upbringing, Borgohain also addressed issues of urban life in his writing.

In the early phase of his life Borgohain led an almost bohemian existence and the reflection of that particular life can be visualised in many of his early stories.

He later became editor for a variety of publications.

He also wrote several novels, short stories, and poems.

Born in a small village in Dhakuakhana, Lakhimpur, Borgohain went to Guwahati after completing matriculation from Dibrugarh Govt. Boys' Higher Secondary School and joined Cotton College for higher studies.

He married Nirupama Tamuli, famous in Assam as Nirupama Borgohain : one of the most popular writers of her generation and an exponent of early feminist writings in Assam.

The writer couple wrote a novel called Puwar Purobi Sandhyar Bibhash, which is the first and perhaps the only joint-novel written in Assamese.

Borgohain first edited an Assamese weekly newspaper Nilachal and later he edited the weekly Nagarik.

Afterwards, he served as a senior staff member of Bangali daily newspaper Ajkal.

Borgohain's editorial articles in Nilachal and Nagarik are edited by Dr. R. Sabhapandit and published in two volumes in Assamese.

2003

From 2003 to 2015, he was the editor in chief of Assamese daily Amar Asom; he then worked as the editor in chief of another daily Niyomiya Barta from 2015 until his death.

2015

He returned his Sahitya Academy award in 2015 in protest against the lack of tolerance being created at the Indian society.

He died on 12 May 2021 at the age of 88 due to complications from COVID-19.
