"Abutunturung the legend" is a story originally a folk tale of Mishing Community of Assam. The Community is a large aborginal plain tribe of Upper Assam. They inhabitated on the river bank of the mighty Brahmaputra, Subansiri and Jiaboroli. The story "Abutunturung" may be originally a folk tale but we found its relation to the modern world and contemporary life. The story depicts the contemporary life symbolically that how the corporate agents and the capitalist slowly polluted our life and break down the minority community tradition, culture, heritage and socio-economic life. It is a revolution against the identity crisis of small community.
