Mohsin Khaiyam
Mohsin Khaiyam (born Mohhammad Mohsin Omar Khaiyyam) is an Indian Journalist from Assam's Guwahati. He was born in Nagaon district on September 18, 1993, to Omar Khaiyam and Mamoni Begum.

Mohsin started his career in 2014 as a freelance writer while he was pursuing his graduation from Nowgong College. He graduated in 2015 and then moved to Guwahati with an aim to start a career in film making but due to severe financial crisis, Mohsin could not make it to a film school and rather had to choose journalism school as a starter. During his time at the Assam School of Journalism, he got more interested into video editing but his teachers insisted that he starts his career as a reporter.

As a first start, he interned for a national daily named Eastern Chronicle. After 15 days of his internship tenure, the newspaper's management offered him to join as a staff reporter. This was one of Mohsin's first official start as a journalist. Working with Eastern Chronicle, he learned how to report of issues related to law and order as well as militancy, and further with this, he started to designate himself as a law and order journalist.

Mohsin over the past few years has worked with several organisations which include Time8, InsideNE, Tent Cinema, The Telegraph, The Hills Times, North Eastern Province, Times30NE, and MyNews NE.
