AAPONKATHA
Apankatha is a non-profit organization. Dooars is a museum of multilingualism and anthropology. Due to various geographical, historical, socio-economic reasons as well as the impact of globalization, the traditional diversity of Dooars has come under deep crisis. Even then, some people from different communities are trying hard to keep their own traditions, culture and languages ​​alive. Various institutions, individually or sporadically, are helping to take that effort forward.

Even then, the 'Apankatha' center has been established to preserve the diverse language, literature, local history, and culture of the Dooars, as well as to make it accessible to future generations and researchers through practice and education. 'Apankatha' has been working on this issue for the past three years.
In addition, efforts are being made to introduce books to everyone, including children and adolescents, in backward areas. Because books can make people aware, eliminate all kinds of deprivations and help them understand their rights, as well as lead them to a better life. 'Alokbortika', a project of 'Boimahal Apnakatha', is a small library for children.
