World Dance Day: ‘Sattriya must be included in the NCERT and other national curriculum to reach out to the youth’
As a young Sattriya dancer from Guwahati, Meenakshi Medhi says that workshops, demonstrations, performances have to be more regular across the country and have to spread across a diverse diaspora.

Despite being a trained Bharatanatyam dancer, Meenakshi Medhi’s connect with Sattriya drew her to her home state Assam’s classical dance tradition of Sattriya in 2003. Since then, the 28-year-old has been “single-mindedly” promoting the dance form, and also started ‘Satkara’, a society for engaging youth to the dance form of Sattriya.
