Kati Bihu or Kongali Bihu was celebarted in respective hostels of Boys' and Girls' of Nagaon Medical College. Bohag Bihu or Rongali Bihu is the spring time festival and an identity of Assamese people. Rongali Bihu is well known across the country for its vibrant colours, bihu dance and overall pomp of the season. But Kati Bihu has a different flavor as there is less merriment and the atmosphere has a sense of constraining and solemnity. To pray for the well-being of the crops in the paddy fields, earthen lamps ('chaki') are lit at the foot of the household tulsi plant, the granary, the garden ('bari') and the paddy fields. Students of Nagaon Medical College preyed before the tulsi plant in front of their hostels to mark this solemn occassion.
