By Correspondent

DHUBRI, May 7 - The Tirobhav Tithi of Harihar Atoi, the principle disciple of Madhabdev was observed with religious fervour at Haripur-Madhupur Satra with a day-long programme on Monday.

Harihar Atoi, it may be pertinent to add here, established a number of Satras in western Assam and North Bengal and played an important role in spreading Satriya culture in these areas.

On Monday, devotees from all over gathered at the Haripur-Madhupur Satra and payed homage to the Vaishnavite saint with a day-long programme of Naam-Prasanga, Kirtan and other rituals.

The programme was attended by different Vaishnavite scholars from all over the state.

�Although this saint is credited with immense contribution towards the Vaishnavite way of life, and had established many Satras in this part of the nation, but till date only Haripur-Madhupur Satra and Bhanukumari Satra recall his stellar contributions,� said Jitendra Narayan Prodhani, president of Assam Satra Mahasabha.
