ASSAM: At least nine sites of Assam witnessed the rare celestial phenomenon of total solar eclipse. The dazzling diamond ring was visible at some areas. In nearly 11 sites partial eclipse was visible and bad
weather played spoilsport at many places. Scientists from different places across India took their positions in different parts of Assam. Many scientists were camping in the Dibrugarh University. Scientists from Indian Space Research Organisation, Indian Institute of Geo Magnetism, Mumbai, Equatorial Geo-Magnetic Research Laboratory, Tirunelvelli, National Physical Laboratory, New Delhi and Calcutta University were camping for the event at the Dibrugarh University. Overcast sky spoiled the viewing in several areas of Nagaland. A major partion of Kohima was covered with clouds during the eclipse. Curator of the Guwahati planetarium, Babul Chandra Bora told ET, "The participation of people in large numbers has shown that people are putting aside the age old superstition of not watching eclipse. Assam was one centre of attractions during this eclipse." He added that Baihata Chariali witnessed a magnificent diamond ring. At Guwahati Planetarium, special arrangements were made for viewing.
