The bio-refinery project sounds promising - converting bamboo to ethanol is innovative and will create local employment. Hope these projects actually benefit common people and not just remain announcements.

While I appreciate the development focus, I hope the government also addresses the flood situation in Assam which affects thousands every year. Infrastructure is important, but so is disaster management.

Good to see Northeast getting attention from central leadership. The medical college in Darrang will be a blessing for healthcare in the region. More such projects needed across all northeastern states.

Hope the visit brings actual ground-level changes. We've seen many foundation stones laid but completion takes years. Still, better to have development focus than neglect. Jai Hind! 🙏
