要旨

Po:rag is a post-harvest festival observed by missing tribe of Assam. Drummers and dancers from nearby villages are invited to perform with their full potential providing wholesome entertainment to the venue. Po:rag was celebrated with full pomp and show. However, it has been seen that the intensity of celebration of Po:rag in the present days is decreasing as compared to the ancient times. So, our study was designed to study the factors that have influenced the intensity. Hence, a survey was conducted among the missing community with some questionnaires prepared with scientific viewpoints to analyze the factors that can influence the intensity of Po:rag celebration. About 87.66% of the total population believe in the fact of diminishing intensity of Po:rag celebration.  The study also suggested that the major factor responsible for its diminishing intensity is urbanization, reduced responsibility of youngsters in social activities, less earnings of the entire community and either scarcity or expensiveness raw materials used in Po:rag celebrations.   Keywords: Po:rag, Missing, Apong, Assam, SurveyCite this Article Mintu Hazarika, Iswar Hazarika, Anju Das.
