¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿ (Beloved Assam) is an Assamese poetry collection written in Karatala Kamala style by Devajit Bhuyan. The uniqueness of the book is that it is written without and kar prevalent in Indian languages like Sanskrit, Assamese, Bengali, Hindi, Gujrati etc. The kar or symbol is used in Indian languages instead of vowels used in English language. It is difficult to walk without legs and work without hands. Similarly, it is difficult to compose poetry without Kar in Assamese or Bengali language. Yet, the author has tried to express beauty, culture, people, festivals of Assam and also philosophy of life of Assamese people without using any kar in his composition. Devajit Bhuyan's first book without any kar "Karatala Kamala" got immense popularity in Assam as it was the first book written in such style after 600 years of departure of Sankardeva, who introduced this style and subsequently the style became defunct.
