The Luitor Pora Mississippi (LPM) is a magazine that is published annually by our literary wing, Asam Sahitya Sabha of North America (ASSNA). Typically, its publication coincides with our annual Assam Convention that is held over the July 4th weekend. It has been published since 1983. Almost all the publications are available at the Library of Congress in Washington DC. If you visit the area, please stop by, and see them.
The articles are written in Assamese or English. The contributors include adults and children. The magazine also includes artwork by children.
