The most innovative writer of the Assamese short story

Saurav Kumar Chaliha won the Sahitya Akademi Award in 1974 for his short story collection, Golam. In the year 1995, he was also honored with the 'Assam Valley Literary Award'. But, the reclusive Chaliha has never cared for any formal recognition. In one of his award acceptance speeches, he went even further went he said, 'I feel like an interloper.' Writing under a pseudonym, he has never directly come into public limelight and continues to remain an enigma for his countless admirers to this day.
