Home minister Amit Shah checked the law and order situation in Assam on Saturday during his two-day state visit.
Shah checked the condition of law and order while chairing a high-level meeting attended by Assam Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal, State Finance Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, Chief Secretary, Director General of Police and other senior government officials.
Shah took part in the meeting earlier this day after the announcement of several development schemes for Assam, saying that the state has embarked on a journey of peace and development.
Earlier, Shah distributed financial grants to 8,000 Namghars (the traditional Vaishnavite monasteries of Assam) under the Assam Darshan programme in Guwahati.
At the case, the Home Secretary also laid the foundation stones for the construction of ‘Batadrava Than’ as a cultural and tourist destination, the New Medical College in Guwahati (the second medical college in the city) and nine law colleges to be founded across Assam.
