In a humanitarian gesture, four families affected by natural disasters were provided with financial assistance during the event, bringing much-needed relief and support to those in need.

The ‘12 Days of Development’ initiative is part of the Assam Government’s broader mission to deliver governance to the grassroots and empower communities through targeted schemes. Addressing the gathering, Chandra Mohan Patowary emphasized the government’s dedication to fostering growth and ensuring the well-being of the people of Assam.

The programme concluded with a pledge by the district administration and public representatives to continue working toward the holistic development of Kamrup and its residents.
