    The oldest and most experienced graph designer in the village since 1980. He is the elder son of Late Budu Ram Deka, migrated from Ramdiya and now residing here since 1942. When Mahatma Gandhi arrived here, he was 17 years old. In 1983 Assam war, Budu Ram fabricated a feet operated bow of bamboo, by which 140 arrows could be released at a time up to a range of around 800 meters. Besides this, he was a great historian of this region, a brave man, a master mechanic of our hand loom machines, a precise carpenter and so many other talents.
