A popular Science lecture on ‘Fusion-Energy for the Future’ was organized jointly by the Centre of Plasma Physics- Institute for Plasma Research (CPP-IPR), Kamrup and Dibrugarh University on June 16, 2015 at 
the New Conference Hall, Dibrugarh University to celebrate the Silver Jubilee Year of CPP-IPR and also in celebration of the Diamond Jubilee Year of the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) of India. Eminent science writer and Former Advisor, Department of Science & Technology, Government of India, Dr. V. B. Kamble delivered an interesting lecture before students from the Model School of the University as well as faculty members, research scholars and students of Dibrugarh University. In his lecture, Dr. Kamble lucidly explained the process of nuclear fusion, and how the energy from such a reaction can be harnessed to address the future energy needs of a planet in which the non-renewable resources of energy are fast depleting. He also elucidated the workings of the Russian Tokamak- a device which confines the plasma created in the super-heated temperatures of 100-150 million Kelvin that is required for nuclear fusion, 
in the shape of a torus. Dr. Kamble outlined the concept of the ITER (originally an acronym of International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor and Latin for "the way"). The ITER is an international nuclear fusion research and engineering megaproject, which is currently building the world's largest experimental tokamak nuclear fusion reactor. It aims to make the long-awaited transition from experimental studies of Plasma Physics to full-scale electricity-producing fusion power plants. The lecture ended with felicitation of the esteemed speaker with a phulam gamucha presented by Dr. Surajit Borkotokey, Department of Mathematics and Dr. Binita Pathak, Department of Physics, Dibrugarh University.
