Like every other city, Tezpur also had these blank, dull and patchy
stretches of boundary walls located in the heart of the city. And given
their status, they would have been sooner or later transformed into
urinals or garbage dumping spots.
We recently arranged for this Wall painting event where many local students participated and completely transformed these walls. To understand the impact made, I asked one of the vendors who operates in that locality. And I think, I don't even need to rephrase his reaction.

He said, "Earlier people used to litter around and urinate, but now
they stop and admire these beautiful paintings. They don't litter here
anymore. They don't want to ruin the hard work of kids. These walls now
bring smiles on faces. These aren't just any colours, they are, the
Colours of Joy!"
