Dear Sri Bichitra Narzary,
Thanks for your post.
Yes. Ms. Smitha is absolutely correct. the RRLF funds public libraries. Besides, you can approach North Eastern Development Council and the GAIL & OIL authorities. The concept of Corporate Social Responsibility is a newly practicing idea in our country (though, certain industry houses have been practicing it since long) and I presume that if you can approach them properly you may get some funds from them as well.My point is, if there is a possibility why not give a try?
Sincerely,
Siddhartha S. Ray, Calcutta
