Third consecutive term! That's a big achievement for Himanta ji. The grassroots development in Assam is visible, especially in infrastructure and healthcare. Also, seeking blessings from Maa Kamakhya before the oath—that's the Assamese way! 🙏 Jai Maa Kamakhya!

Interesting to see so many NDA leaders gather in Guwahati. The security arrangements sound intense—barricades and multi-layered deployment for a swearing-in. Shows how high-stakes politics has become even in smaller states.

Four ministers from different parties—BJP, AGP, BPF—shows coalition politics at work. But I wonder if this diverse cabinet will actually work for all communities in Assam or just serve their respective bases. Time will tell.

"Peace, progress and prosperity"—that's a powerful mantra for any leader. Himanta's visit to Kamakhya temple before the oath is a beautiful tradition. Hope he lives up to those blessings and delivers for the people of Assam. 🌟

Honestly, seeing corporate bigwigs like Jeet Adani at political events makes me uneasy. It's a public ceremony, but it sends a message about who really has influence. Let's hope the new government focuses on farmers, students, and small businesses more than industrialists.
