Assamese People in Gurgaon Gurgaon, Haryana June-July 2015 I have completed 3 years in Delhi (2012-2015), and during this time I met a lot of Assamese people based in Delhi NCR in various events and social networking sites. What interested me was the bond they share with fellow Assamese people. I always wanted to meet, interact and know them personally. During my internship, when my mentor asked me to look for a personal project, which can be done in Gurgaon, I came up with the idea of photographing Assamese people in Gurgaon.
