The Periodic Table of Chemical Elements is one of the greatest achievement in the field of science. Without the systematic classification of element discovered by by Dmitri Mendeleev in 1869 modern science cannot simply be imagined. 2019 is the 150th anniversary of the Periodic Table of Chemical Elements and has therefore been proclaimed the "International Year of the Periodic Table of Chemical Elements (IYPT2019)" by the United Nations General Assembly and UNESCO.The initiative for IYPT2019 is supported by IUPAC in partnership with the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP), European Association for Chemical and Molecular Science (EuCheMS), the International Council for Science (ICSU), International Astronomical Union (IAU), and the International Union of History and Philosophy of Science and Technology (IUHPS).
The Department of Chemistry, Darrang College started the celebration of IYPT2019 by releasing a wall magazine ALCHEMICA on 9th February,2019 completely devoted to Mendeleev and his periodic table. It was released by Sanjib Chetry, HOD.
